The Like/Hate Thread

[Jarka]

Like: Once Upon a Time
Unsure: Grimm

Of the two fairy-tale based shows that started this past weekend (wtf @ that, btw), I found that I enjoyed ABC's Once Upon a Time more than NBC's Grimm. While I do enjoy the fact that Grimm is set in Oregon, it was a much darker show than I was anticipating, what with the murder and whatnot. Once Upon a Time, however, brings us back to the characters we all grew up with in Disney movies and places them in our world without their memories. I will still watch both, but I think the major difference is that while Grimm brings despair, like things are never going to get better, Once Upon a Time brings hope.

But but the origins of fairy tales were horrifically morbid. Most of The Brothers Grimm collection are nightmare-worthy.

STICK TO THE ROOTS, MAN.
