First of all this movie was fantastic. Second of all these two were totally lesbians and totally in love. And third, why does Dead Poets Society get all the attention and all the content? What about the girlies???

I’ve seen OUAT so many times and I know people discuss how big of hypocrites David and Snow are all the time but every time I watch it really hits me how bad David is. Like, he is constantly on board with/actively pushing for killing the bad guys, but the second someone else suggests it he’s like “noooo we’re the good guys you can’t!!” Like buddy your bloodthirsty ass was just begging Snow to let you murder Regina you are no better
“We have to kill Regina! She’ll never stop coming for us!”
“Yeah okay maybe we should.”
“Nooo what are you talking about we’re the good guys we have to be better than them!”
Anyway David is easily the most annoying character on the show and he just gets more annoying every time I watch it

I have such frustrated feelings about Why Women Kill.
I adored season 1 so much, it was brilliant! The writing was solid, there was a tension to the mystery, parts of it that only unraveled with time.
And this show was actually unique. The way it told three murder mysteries in three different time periods that all shared the same location was incredibly cool. As someone who loves the look of a period piece from the last century, it was so nice to see the costumes, the cars, the sets. The way the show transitioned between time periods too!
That’s not even mentioning the cast, the cast was fucking amazing, I mean, you don’t cast Lucy Liu and don’t get praise for that, that’s a given, but Ginnifer Goodwin and Kirby Howell-Baptiste were also amazing.
An incredibly talented cast that got to work with a solid script in a refreshing concept of story-telling.
And then they just... threw everything unique about the show out of the window in season 2 and made it the most average, mediocre thin, just another run-of-the-mill crime show. Sure, it was still a period piece, but only one period.
The concept of switching between periods, which was the unique and interesting aspect, was gone - and I can only assume that was some stupid greed decision of “oh well, if we keep doing 3 decades a season, we’ll burn through the past century way too fast so let’s slow down!” or something. But I’d rather have had three incredible seasons that had wrapped it on 90 years total and kept the model of story-telling that the show first used, than what the show ended up doing.
Not to mention that there was just... no real... Season 2 lacked appeal. The stories of the three murderesses had intrigue, for one, it wasn’t even entirely clear who would end up the murderer and who would be the victim, and then there was compassion woven in too. They were complex. Season 2 just fell incredibly flat and was so much more predictable.
It was also such a drag. Because it had one story that it told over the span of the same length as season 1, which told three stories. So they stretched this out to trice the length it should have needed.
All of this is to say, I wasn’t surprised when this show got cancelled after season 2, because of course did it get cancelled after season 2. In a sea of shows that get cancelled too early, this one actually did that to itself by self-sabotaging so hard.
And yeah, I’m still mad about that, because I just rewatched Sandman and saw Kirby and was reminded of Why Women Kill season 1 and how great this show could have been if it had kept the anthology format of telling multiple stories within one season, if it had managed to keep even just half the quality of season 1.

"Welcome back to 'Good Morning Storybrooke'. We're talking to our neighbours about some recent sighting and odd occurrences in, and around, our town!"
"Well, there have been some disappearances, some possible deaths. So I would say, sort of... normal."
"I heard someone saw a huge bird."
"Huge... hairy... bird."
"A winged monkey, aye."
"Enormous."
"Angry."
"It was far more dangerous overhead than a bird, in every way."
"I... parked my car in the wrong place."
"The Evil Queen's probably behind it."
"I have nothing to do with this."
"If it's not Regina, we'll have to find out who it is."
"Mm hmm, I'm gonna go move my truck-"
"This has been a 'Good Morning Storybrooke' special report!"
