Once Upon a Time: Leaving Storybrooke (2018)
Season 7, Episode 22
4/10
Unless you're a Regina fan, this is a horrible finale

Warning: Spoilers
I hate being negative about this show, because I've been a fan of it for years. I've really enjoyed all of S7 except for this finale. That's one of the reasons I didn't like it. It's completely disconnected from the season

The characters this season were supposed to be about: Henry, Ella, and Lucy did not have any lines at all

Emma, Snow, and Charming's returns just felt like "We have to be here because it's the finale"

Wish Henry forgiving Regina, hugging her, and calling her "Mom" is the stupidest thing and makes no sense. Regina never even even apologized to him.

Imagine: Someone came into your house, kidnapped and killed your family, then left you alone. Years later, you run into them again, they say "I didn't mean to kill your family. I can take you in as my own." Any rationals person would run for their lives after that.

Uniting the realms makes no sense at all. This season revealed there can be multiple different versions of the same realm. Does that mean there are thousands of different Alices', Cinderellas', Snow Whites' etc walking around Maine?

The ending montage did not include anything from S7.

We should have seen Emma, Hook, Snow and Charming with Henry, Ella, and Lucy.

We should have seen Wish Hook and Alice with Emma and Hook.

We already got a "Regina is accepted as Queen" ending for her in S6. Why did we need to spend the last 7 minutes of the show saying it again?

The best part of this finale was Rumple sacrificing himself for Wish Hook and reuniting with Belle, because it was the only part connected to this season.
