1.  Revolution, Arrow, and Elementary have all been picked up for full seasons, and Beauty and the Beast has at least had scripts for more episodes ordered.  Dare I hope that all my new shows will actually make it?  (Probably not.)

2.  I am not spoiler cutting this spoiler for this week's Once Upon A Time, because fandom misogyny doesn't get spoiler

Rumplestiltskin's wife left him (he was a war deserter, which made them social pariahs and she wanted to leave to start a new life elsewhere but he wouldn't go) and after he got superpowers and essentially became the god of evil, he hunted down the man she ran away with (who became Captain Hook) and she tried to bargain with him for him to leave them alone (after she heard about the whole "god of evil" thing she was smart enough to get something he wanted for that exact purpose) and he asked her if she ever loved him and she hesitated and then said no (probably lying-if nothing else her trying to get him to leave with her implies there was at least fondness at some point) and he literally ripped her heart out then cut off Hook's hand. Fandom, naturally, immediately started talking about how she deserved it only to have some pipe up "uhm, no.." and flame war was a go.

I actually enjoy most of the series's twists on fairy tales, but hate everything related to their take on Rumpelstiltskin and Beauty and the Beast (100% "Stockholm's is true love").

Forget 'Stockholm,' it's straight up 'Domestic Abuse is True Love.'
