The Bottom Line

Unleashing the magic into Story Brooke, the second season of Once Upon A Time kicks the action into high gear, and although like any show it had it's ups and downs, the second season was more consistent than the first and gave audiences a glimpse into the future and past of the characters with flash backs and flash forwards, and got to meet a host of new and exciting fairytale characters, like Mulan, Aurora, Prince Philip, Lancelot and many m ore. In fact, maybe a few too many, it's easy to get excited about new characters, but we didn't get a chance to see all of them develop in terms of plot.

The Complete Second Season DVD and Blu-ray has some great features for lovers of the show,  "A Fractured Family Tree" is narrated by Sarah Hyland (from Modern Family) and it's always fun to see your fave actors messing up in a blooper reel.
