As I said in my 4x01 review, I have doubts over this one as, well, how can Elsa be a threat by making nobody leave if no one has any intentions of doing so given the consequences behind it? Well, you could argue that she doesn't know that yet, but anyway, given the press release, I find it pointless with Charming's flashbacks as we don't really need to see how he changed from being a meek shepherd since well, there wasn't any indication beforehand & he's clearly capable of being a leader & I just think it's unecessary seeing the farm in peril since we know it doesn't in the end. Not even the seemingly nice friendship between Anna & Charming will seem to overshadow the weak set-up. And Bo Peep being a warlord...that sounds very bizarre, but at least they're not doing Disney characters (OK, technically she's Pixar & even then she was already a nursery rhyme character) & it seems she'll have a badass makeover like all the other OUAT female fairytale characters sans Rapunzel! Well, at least we'll see Ruth again & Charming's long hair makes him look hot even if Rumple pulls it off better! As for the Storybrooke scenes, I'm interested in Emma & Elsa's interactions along with Mary Margaret trying to do more than be stuck on the sidelines saddled with a new baby, but Emma potentially dying seems pointless since it's pretty obvious the main character is going to live! Anyway, this is all just my initial thoughts keep in mind & we'll all have to wait & see if this one will be a surprise given the second episodes of each seasons never come on par to the premiere...or even the season itself (i.e. 1x02, 3x02)
And by the way, I'm very happy to hear about the ratings news for 4x01 as it got 10.2 million viewers with a 3.7 rating, which has been the best from the show in 2 years & got a 41% increase from 3x21/3x22 & gained it's series high in the kids & teen demographic (pretty obvious why)
