Grimm "The Bottle Imp" - I didn't see that coming either, but MAN was that kid scary! I'm dying to know Renard's story.
Once Upon A Time "Lady In The Lake" - I rolled my eyes at the black fairy godmother being killed (but I liked it just because of what it did for Rumple), but killing off Lancelot upset me (if, indeed, he is dead, he may not be). Santiago Cabrera plays him on Merlin, so he's a character that can truly transcend race, and adding Arthurian mythology to the show is fun (they've already got Greek). As for Emma, I did love seeing her out of her element and Snow knowing the ins and outs (quite the reversal from last season). I'm hoping there's an explanation for her powers going away, of, more accurately changing since she seems to be some sort of source of magic.
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1 - Frank Miller's early work is great, but he has gotten progressively more deranged as the years go by. DKR is a great piece of work, and this adaptation did an amazing job (Ariel Winter! Michael Emerson!). Loved Bruce still being haunted and having to get back into costume despite having aged. I'm eagerly awaiting the conclusion, and this NEEDED to be two parts or else it would've felt super rushed.
Should I hold off until you see part 2 until I do my big "End of Batman" post? I don't want to spoil anything.
