A few TVGuide scans ...

[babettew54]

Under the cut are a couple of scans of my favorite shows in the latest TVGuide double issue dated Feb. 6-19, 2012: Once Upon a Time and The Vampire Diaries!!

The OUaT scan is updated with a tidbit I was worried about but now I'm giggling with happiness and TVD, well, I'm wondering where they're going with this...!! *hummm*

AWESOME post!

As for the identity of the Beast... if you've seen the trailer, it's not really unknown.

And TVD! Would you like to read the new TVD fic I am working on please please? *hugs*

[dj_rocca]

Yeah and because we're seen it HER WORDS MAKE NO EFFIN SENSE!!!

Rumpel HAD all that in his life before! It's NOTHING new to him and he is continuously touching people so it makes no GD sense...

My rant is over for now...

I don't think Rumple is the beast, even though we've seen him with Belle in 'usual' circumstances. That picture could be misleading (at least I hope it is)..

*tries not to shudder*

Did you not see the promo? It's 98% confirmed. I'll forever deny it though, Belle deserves and needs Adam (I'm convinced it's Billy) It's nothing against him though I love Rumps

Hrrrrrrrm. This marks a pattern that's beginning to irk me. Guys, Disney isn't the source of these fairy tales and they don't have a monopoly on the canon. I had to roll my eyes at OUAT's Cinderella looking excatly like Disney's Cinderella, and the Genie being from Agrabah? Come on. I know that Disney is near and dear to lot of people's wee hearts and a majority of people's first exposure of these stories is through Disney, but I had been hoping for more from this series than asspats for Uncle Walt.

Go watch Jean Cocteau's La Belle et la Bete, it'll blow the cancan dancing feather dusters right out your butt.

I don't think most people know this or even care. It's Disney as far as most folks are concerned, and so the writers and producers are using that 'gimmick' to pull in viewers. I can't really blame them.

Although Grimm is great! I truly enjoy how they're dealing with these tales...! Not every episode is winning me over but I can't give up on it. It's really fascinating.

But I can't help but wonder how much longer OUaT can sustain this 'Rumple' screwing up all the fairytales for his own 'wicky' business...

I'm a bit bored with him at this point...

I can. It shows total apathy at best, outright laziness at worst, and is just plain pandering.

Honestly, at this point Rumpelstiltskin/Gold is the only one I'm not bored with. I'm mad to find out just what his agenda is, and watching him troll everyone is very amusing. If nothing else, he's fun to watch.

Well, I'd much rather see Regina. She is a lot more fascinating to me. How evil is she really? She's way over the top and she's great to watch..

Rumple on the other hand does have an agenda. And I am curious about that, but seeing him involved in all these stories, all the time... IDK... it's wearing a bit thin..
