Wine, Whine, and Once

Words I never thought I would have to type, and yet here we are. You're all so welcome! Though all things considered, the family dildo might not be the most bonkers thing in this episode, so buckle up! We have realms behind mirrors, switcheroos, high school prom, the Dragon (who STILL simply did not die) and more! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmai...

No, you see, we actually think it's really cool that six seasons into the show we're retconning how the Charmings met. It's good for us! It's really great that they took their entire plot of how they met and threw it away! It's also really good news that the show confirmed that Regina did want to get with Rumple. Isn't this SO much fun for everyone! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email...

Ah yes! It's time for our favorite untold story! 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and more importantly, the return of Liam (the second), and the return of the useless superpower! It's a BAD time!

Did you like the movie Aladdin? Enough to watch it almost in its entirety but with minimal OUAT flair? And also Aladdin's the savior and has a cockney accent for GOD knows why. If that's your jam, this episode was actually made just for you and nobody else. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

Don't you just hate it when your main villain for the season dies after exactly four episodes? Anyway, Jekyll AND Hyde are both dead. So what's we're going to do for the rest of the season is beyond us. Oh, and Princess Jasmine is here. For reasons! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

You know what the classic Cinderella story has always needed to bring it to the next level? A gun. Ella needed a gun. A gun that is passed to EVERY person in the story without any explanation. And if you disagree with us, you have the education of my cat. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

Have you ever wanted to hear Rumplestiltskin speak in an uwu voice while talking about how badly he needs the Charmings to raw dog it on the regular? Have you ever thought about what it would be like if the Evil Queen (clad all in leather) announced 'Mommy's back'? You're in luck. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you!

We're back for another thrilling season of magic, curses, and debates on whether or not the 'dweebery' gene is recessive or dominant (Punnett square still pending). As Storybrooke awakens to a new town leader/ owner (unclear), so does Belle awake in her nightmarish hellscape to find a man child fetus with microbangs. Oh, and Emma is back to unlearning what she just learned for the fift...

It's that time again! Listen as Lo and Dee get tipsy and try to remember what happens in the upcoming season, episode by episode. If the audio cuts out at any point, you can assume it's because these two clowns were laughing so hard and doubled over away from the mic... whoops! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram...

Welcome to 17 minutes of Lo and Dee just screaming and gushing about how fabulous Cruella is. If you have never seen the S5 Bonus Feature short, 10/10 would recommend! It's a .... GOOD.... time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

PEOPLE OF NEW YORK CITY---- You need to hide. It's not safe here. Buckle UP for what can only be described as the cringiest, most unsettling, most uneventful Finale of the Century* It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce. *no need to fact check us. We won't pay you for your efforts.

Does anyone else miss the good ol' days when they'd tease a character, let it breathe and drag on a moment before telling us who they were? Good times. Anyway this episode is about Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

For an episode that feels like a finale, we sure do have TWO WHOLE EPISODES LEFT! For an episode that kills off a character and resurrects another, resolving a lot of conflict in the process, we sure do have TWO WHOLE EPISODES LEFT! We can't express to you how final this non finale feels since there are in fact TWO episodes to go! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineand...

We don't know about you all, but we're ready to make like Eurydice and get the hell out of hell. You know, as she FAMOUSLY does in the very famous Greek myth? Anyway did you ever wonder why Emma wore a jacket? We hope you answered yes, because you're going to find out anyway! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagra...

What more could you want in the first episode of 2026 than a Cora 'You Stupid Girl' Mills episode? An iconic sendoff for an iconic character. Also the twin brothers also have it out, so do with that what you will. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

OMG did you know Ruby's a friend of Dorothy's?! Like, a winky face friend! We try not to be too cynical about the first canonical LGBTQIA+ ship on this show, but also JUSTICE FOR RUBY AND DOROTHY! They deserved far better than the show gave them, and yet this is all we get. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @win...

We don't know what it means, but we DO know you never want to be the Belle of the scenario. Do with that what you will! All of that said, it is another Belle-centric episode, so make sure you have your potato of choice on hand! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

Ass: in basket. Scarecrow brain: out. Dorothy: frozen. Dress he's going to plow you in later: on. BBQ sauce: on my titties. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

Honestly, if we could give Liam Jones (the eldest) a standing ovation for this episode, we would. No, he isn't important to the plot. And no, he isn't really important outside of the plot (other than being the main focus), but he DOES deliver the most iconic reading of filth to Emma 'Savior Complex' Swan in the entire series. And for that we commend him. It's a BAD time! We wan...

Who would have thunk that in this season of five we would get ADDITIONAL Rumple and Milah lore! Well, clearly the show didn't think of it either, but that's neither here nor there. Don't worry about it! All that matters is Milah is in the underworld and it makes sense, actually! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Insta...

I don't know what we did to deserve this. What gods have we angered to be gifted the Temu version of Meg and Hercules? Why isn't she a sassy brunette with walls? Why isn't he a redhead? Why do we get them and then say goodbye all in the same episode even though this is the Underworld arc and they could have stuck around? It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewh...

Annnnd we are back for the second half of season 5 and whatever hell ish antics are in store! Why is the underworld mirrored after Storybrooke? Why is everything tinted red? Why is hell actually purgatory? Why did they do Hades dirty like that? None of these questions (and less!) will be answered! Your questions are pointless. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineand...

Boy oh boy do we love a Mid-Season finale that ties up every loose end in a satisfying way and leaves us thankful for the journey we were taken on. Unfortunately, that is not what this is! It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

Well, after that brief interlude, we're back to your regularly scheduled plot! A newly dark-oned Hook goes off the deep end with full murder-y vibes. Thank GOD we have the Dark One Chronicles to refer to in this time of need. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you! Email us at winewhineandonce@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @winewhineandonce.

We interrupt this very thrilling 'Hook is a secret Dark One' plot to bring you . . . a Merida episode? Trust us, we're just as confused as you are! But hey! We also get Ruby, as a treat for our troubles. And a happy and thriving Fiik(us) to boot. It's a BAD time! We want to hear from you!
