Once Upon A Time
I re watched season one of Once Upon A Time because I didn’t
have time to finish it all the way through the first time but it is still a
very good show. Once upon a time is way different from American Horror Story.
Emma is the main character which has a son named Henry. Henry finds Emma and
tells her that he is her son and that she is also Story Brook’s Savior. Henry
carries this really big book full of fairytales and he thinks that the book is
related to real life, but of course everyone doesn’t believe him because he’s a
kid. Emma ends up taking him back to story brook and guess who ends up being
henry’s adopted mother? The evil queen, which is the major of the town. The evil queen made a big spell when
everyone was still living in the enchanted forest. The spell was to make
everyone forget who he or she was and where he or she came from. Time didn’t
pass in story brook so no one aged. Just like Henry said, Emma is the savior to
get everyone out of the curse the evil queen put on the whole town. She ends up
being Prince charming and Snow White’s daughter. Before the curse hit, snow
white put Emma in an enchanted wardrobe thing the Pinocchio’s father made. The
evil queen hates Emma because she has came to ruin her plans and also she is
jealous because Emma has Henry’s attention. Regina (the evil queen) knows
exactly who Emma is and she tries to poison her with an apple but Henry ended
up eating it. Henry turns up in the hospital and he can’t be awakened. Regina and Emma gave Henry a goodbye kiss
because they didn’t think he would make it but once Emma gave Henry a kiss she
broke the whole curse. Even though Emma broke the curse, no one returned home
to the enchanted forest, which was weird. So now I have ask myself, would they
ever all go back to live in the enchanted forest? A special feature that Once Upon A Time is how they mix all the fairy tells together. You can get from Little Red Ridding hood all the way to Frozen. It has the feature of adpation because you get a mixture of every fairy tale and disney movie all in one.

OUAT is one of my favorite shows! I'd like to see you do more with your viewing blog than just recap the story, though. Can you reflect on one of the essential questions of the class? The idea of adaptation is especially relevant to this show because it's adapting different tales into one show. How does that impact the stories?
