TV commentary:

Walking Dead- What the frick, Rick, you make no sense! You already know in your heart the governor will kill you anyways even if you hand over Michonne? Why are you starting to doubt that?!

Lost Girl- Interesting, so what is this connection between Tamsin and Bo? I mean, we know in mythology valkyries take dying worthy warriors to Valhalla. Now, does the card mean Bo is dying, and Tamsin doesn't want to take her? Or is the valkyrie mythology a red herring and does Bo represent something ominous for Tamsin?

OUAT- Wow, heartbreaking ep. Its interesting that the villains in this, even though they've done some horrible things, you can still totally feel for them. So, like Regina and Rumple, Cora didn't start out evil. She was born poor, and the royals made her feel like crap, so she was driven by a desire for revenge for the embarrassment and scorn. I'd like to see how Eva turned from the bitchy chick who trips Cora and then Henry's (Regina's dad one, not the stepson one) dad makes Cora apologize to her, to the Eva from last week who chastises Snow for lording her station over others. Also, Regina's dad is supposed to be Hispanic?! Then again, I guess Regina is some kinda Spanish, and she didn't get it from Cora. Its just the actor they chose to play the old version of her dad didn't seem as ethnic as the younger version of him.

I digress, so in her quest, she meets Rumple, and they fall in love, but her desire for revenge was stronger. So, she actually pulls out her own heart to purge such weaknesses as love from her. Which is why she could never be a proper mother to Regina, and set her daughter down the dark path. It also explains Rumple's hesitancy with Belle initially- after Mila, after Cora, how could he trust in love?

But even then, all three have done some pretty evil things, these emotional troubles don't excuse it. I mean, Rumple chose magic over his son. Cora chose revenge over love.

In any case, wow, if you think Regina could not hate Snow any more, you'd be wrong. So, Rumple convinces Snow to use the candle on Cora's heart and somehow get it back in her to kill her and save Rumple. Snow asks him, why she couldn't just let Rumple die, and put the heart in anyways, hopefully changing Regina in the process. She could, Rumple tells her, but then she'd have to tell Henry that she killed his grandfather. So, she decides to go through with it, tricking Regina by being all, "If you give your mom her heart back, maybe she'll love you!" She feels incredibly guilty about the dupe later and tries to take it back.

But not in time. Regina puts her mom's heart back in, and Regina does finally seem to have love in her eyes for her daughter. But then she dies. At first she thinks its Rumple's doing (well, it kinda is), but then when Snow shows up trying to stop Regina, she realizes Snow tricked her and man, is she pissed. I mean, first Daniel, now Cora? I'd hate to be in Snow's shoes.
