The Once Upon a Time finale left us with Henry being kidnapped (Jared S. Gilmore), Belle (Emilie de Ravin) as the possible head of Story Brooke and Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and the gang headed off to fight the big bad Peter Pan.
Here’s my Season 3 wish list for “Once Upon a Time”:
No. 1—Why should we be afraid of him?
The most we got to see of Peter Pan last season his ridiculously creepy—but still cool-looking—shadow. And we can’t even be sure that’s what he looks like. Everyone who was to be feared in Story Brook displayed great magic. Mr. Gold (Robert Carlyle) showed off his abilities as “The Dark One” and Regina (Lana Parilla) proved why she was the Evil Queen. So if even Mr. Gold/Rumplestilskin said we—including himself—should fear the leader of Neverland, then he’s has to be packing some pretty heavy magic right? Hopefully most viewers are like me, and really don’t want to have to wait to see what Peter Pan can do.
No. 2—A different fate
The prophecy that the seer gave to Rumplestilskin foretold that Henry will be the undoing of Mr. Gold. Personally, it would be nice to see Mr. Gold sing different tune—a non evil one. Of course, after a Comic-Con interview recently done by Carlyle, it seems “The Dark One” may not want to change his ways just yet. However, maybe if he saw a different future for himself, then he would actually help his family and more importantly not try to kill Henry.
No. 3—A larger team
It seems many new characters are coming to the show including Tinker Bell (Rose McIver), Ariel (Joanna Garcia) and her Prince Charming Eric (Gil McKinney). It will be interesting to see what role they play. Hopefully, no matter what they do, they aid in retrieving Henry.
Season 3 of “Once Upon a Time” premieres Sun, Sept 29 at 10/9c on ABC.
