Whoever does this show is a Seinfeld fan. The bald janitor is that dude who goes front first to parallel park and the dr is The Jimmy!

David Anders. I remember first seeing him on Heroes. It's not Jimmy though.

I love the parallel fairy tale/real world storylines setup. The costumes and set design are great.

Ginnifer's hair might look better to some of you because she's clearly grown it out from the first episode until now. I don't expect it to keep getting longer since she's stated she wants it short, but it does suite her more now that it's not SO short.

I certainly wouldn't say this is as good as Lost, but I also get a Lost vibe while watching. I have no idea why, but I always want John Locke to show up. I thought of him, specifically, when they were out tracking James.

I, too, think this is a terrific show and there hasn't been any drop off since the pilot. Next week's episode looked very good as well. I hope it keeps getting great ratings.

I'm not someone who tweets, but I checked Ginnifer's Twitter page and it was fun that she tweeted during the entire show and answered fan questions, gave some insights about certain things going on during scenes they were filming, thanked everyone for spending the hour with her and stated she reads every message. That's a pretty cool thing to do for your fans and, while I wouldn't check twitter during a tv show, I think I'll check back every week after the show to see what she has to say.

Having a lot of fun watching this. Pretty cool that the janitor and the security guard were two of the seven dwarfs. I too love the switching between present day and the fairy tale.

I wasn't too sure about this show from the previews, but I've been very pleasantly surprised by it. I've really enjoyed it thus far.

Once Upon A Time slipped a little in its third week, but it was only down 5% to a 3.7 adults 18-49 rating. The performance the first three weeks has to be very encouraging for ABC.

I thought about watching this show once the commercials first started airing but then at the end it said "from the writers of Lost" so I decided to skip it. I just wish there was some way of reassurance that they actually had an idea of where this show is going and not just making shit up on the way like I feel they did with Lost. After the last four horrible seasons of the X-Files and then the ending of Lost I have pretty much given up on serialized shows. Some once convince me otherwise.

Another enjoyable episode. Enjoyed the Snow White backstory set in the past a lot. I good a good laugh out of Emma wearing the Mayor's old clothes.

There is an interesting dynamic between Henry and the Mayor. He knows most of the answers to solving the curse yet he is thwarted by her since she seems to be all knowing.

Regarding the previews for next week:

Spoiler:
It seems that they're introducing a new character in Cinderella and expanding more on Rumplestilskin. I get the feeling he'll be one of the more interesting characters on this show.

I recognized the doctor from Alias. I can't remember his real name or the character.
