Once Upon A Time - Season 5
This season showcases a bunch of fairy tale characters, but the central character is Emma, Snow white. In this season her personality takes a U turn. On the other hand, the rest of the people are searching for Merlin.

I think this was one of the stronger season premieres that Once has had. The new characters worked well, and the introduction of Camelot was intriguing. I cannot wait to see what happens next!

The fifth season is off to a good start, I just hope they can keep the focus on Emma and not go off onto a bunch of random tangents.

This season's first episode [is] one of the best season openers of Once Upon a Time's five seasons.

Once Upon a Time's season 5 premiere starts the season out right, delivering on an Emma gone bad but still showing her struggle to keep ahead of the darkness.

The quest to find Emma took several twist and turns.

It's comforting to know Once Upon a Time is there as an entertainment families can rally around, and one that will challenge them thematically as much as it panders by playing in the Disney sandbox. [Blu-ray]

Fool me once, shame on you, Storybrooke; fool me twice, what the hell, I'm still here, aren't I?

With a smart decision to focus on the lead characters and not the overall "gimmick" plot of the season, Once Upon A Time feels renewed with a dark energy in its shockingly sprightly fifth year.

Morrison delivered some of her best work on the show to date, and it's terrific to see the plot focus on a member of the regular cast.
September 29, 2015
The cast is still superlative and the emotional dynamics between the core characters are still compelling. Everything else (like the plot and the wigs and the Charmings' track record as parents) is at least bad enough to be funny.
