Episode was Jafar centered so was much more interesting. That said the show is still one big hot mess and I hope they do something fast or cancel it.

Even though it has issues they need to finish the story before they cancel it. Based on how it currently is there is little reason for it to go beyond the thirteen episode order.

This is a really trite thing, but Naveen Andrews must have gotten a new hair stylist because he's lost his curls and length for a shorter and more feathered look. Just threw me off is all.
... and I agree, this could easily be tied up in 13 eps... but then again, I also thought that the original OUAT would only go a season or two and we're in season 3 now.
So far Jafar is the only thing keeping me watching this show.

I'm still waiting for an Iago reference in the show. Then again, I'm waiting for an Aladdin one as well.
