You're listening to Once, episode 298, for ABC's TV show, Once Upon a Time.

I'm Daniel J. Lewis.

I'm Aaron.

And we've watched this episode,

the sawn in your heart. Now, Aaron, I've got to ask you up front, how many times have you seen

this episode? Once. Okay. I've seen it three times already because they did give us early access

to a press screening version of the episode, which varied only slightly from what aired. There were,

I think, a couple more lines that Emma had in the final aired version than what was released

to the press several days early. But I watched that episode a couple times. And now, I do have

some critiques about the episode, but for the entire show, Erin, ask me what my favorite episode of all time of Once Upon a Time is.

Daniel, what's your favorite episode of Once Upon a Time of all time?

Now, I know it has certain plot problems and stuff, and we'll dig into that in a little bit.

What episode does it, really?

What I think makes this musical work for me, and I am not usually a fan of musicals.

What makes it work for me is these are characters that we've gotten to know and love and then to see them break out in song.

And for it to be fun music too.

And music that gets in your head is what makes it so much fun to me.

And they even break the fifth or the fourth one of the walls as well a little bit i definitely

have snow and charming songs stuck in my head right now so i i would agree with that statement

i really loved this episode and i wasn't sure i was going to i was kind of like oh are they just

doing this to you know can any of them even sing? They can all sing. It was so good.

Yeah. Even Henry got his little bit in there, which surprised me. His little like his one line at the end, right? Yeah. And from what I was seeing in the chat room, too, and the reactions on Twitter so far, at least that were directed at us at One's podcast, everyone in our community loved this episode.
