Once Upon A Time

One of the highest-rated new dramas of the 2011–12 television season, Once Upon A Time continues to build a loyal fan base through its sophomore year. The series has been praised for its original and imaginative narrative: Hank Stuever of the Washington Post wrote that Once has “the right mix of cleverness, action and romance.” Created by Lost writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, the series creatively shuttles between the fairy tale world ruled by the Evil Queen and the quiet fictional town of Storybrooke, Maine, where classic characters residing in exile are coming to grips with who they really are “from the other side,” all because of Henry’s (aka the grandson of Snow White and Prince Charming) deep belief in their stories. Never have the icons of childhood seemed so real and complex.
