Once Upon a Time (S4E21/22) -- 2 Hour Season Finale - "Operation Mongoose" - 5/10/15




SEASON FINALE

HENRY IS CALLED UPON TO RESTORE THE BALANCE BETWEEN HEROES AND VILLAINS, IN THE TWO-HOUR SEASON FINALE OF ABC'S "ONCE UPON A TIME"

"Operation Mongoose, Part 1 and Part 2" - The Author proves to be a formidable wild card and forges an alliance with Gold. Emma, her parents, Hook and Regina scramble to stop them, but when Gold and the Author turn the tables on heroes and villains alike, the prospect of any happy outcome appears worlds away. Henry discovers he has big shoes to fill as he steps up to save his family before the story's final page is turned. It's a race to the finish, and everything culminates with a shocking twist that will leave the residents of Storybrooke reeling, in the captivating two-part season finale of "Once Upon a Time," SUNDAY, MAY 10 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

"Once Upon a Time" stars Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow White/Mary Margaret, Jennifer Morrison as Emma Swan, Lana Parrilla as the Evil Queen/Regina, Josh Dallas as Prince Charming/David Nolan, Emilie de Ravin as Belle, Colin O'Donoghue as Hook, Jared S. Gilmore as Henry, Michael Socha as Will Scarlet and Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold.


"Operation Mongoose Part 1" was written by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, and directed by Romeo Tirone.

"Operation Mongoose Part 2" was written by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, and directed by Ralph Hemecker.

Renewed for a 5th season. Will return this Fall.

We got to see a bit of Bad Emma this season, and now the show is going to go there again next season? I guess that means Gold will be good. I hope this concept is short lived.

I liked the Heroes & Villains reality. I would have enjoyed a whole season of that. Especially if it had been used as an excuse to bring back MIA characters like Ruby, Dr. Whale, and Mulan.

So based on the white heart, Rumpelstiltskin is the new Saviour? That should be an interesting twist. And I like the reveal of who the Sorcerer is. That's a callback to season 1, where Excalibur was among Rumpelstiltskin's magical collection.

All in all, this season reminded of the early seasons of Smallville. Fantastic season premier, shitty middle with a few bright spots, and a fantastic season finale.

That mostly lines up with my opinion of the season. I loved the Frozen arc and those characters, got a bit bored with Maleficent in the middle, and liked how they wrapped it up.

It should be fun seeing Merlin and presumably King Arthur.

I wonder who they'll get to play Morgan le Fay, Morgause, and Elaine. Or if they'll simply combine the first two, calling her Morgana and ignore the third sister altogether.

Seemed pretty clear to me mid-season that they were going to go with a dark Emma. I'm looking forward to this twist after really being bored with most of this season. Especially the Frozen episodes. Never has such perfect casting been so wasted.

The show really needs to go back to more episodes focused on the leads from S1.

Ioan Gruffud might be cast as Lilly's father.
