Okay, I'm gonna confess...I went into this show totally expecting that it would be Emma/Sheriff Graham I'd get behind. If any ship at all. But episode 3 really stole my heart on the Snow White/Prince Charming ship. Could it be the way Snow reminded me of Lois Lane when she was bantering away?
Which isn't to say that I won't thoroughly enjoy the Emma/Graham ship as it gets more developed. But right now, it's all about the "Snowing" ship for me.

I was really skeptical when they talked about the banter and how it reminded to Clois, I mean I was like NO way. But by the third episode I was sold.
I thought they would be the mushy loving fairy tale couple but I like the banter, of course for me is not Clois levels but they are almost getting there.
So far I am all on board with the ships the show is presenting

Snowing was definitely beautiful and heartbreaking in episode 3. The clois-like banter was great, and to see the unconventional first meeting was a nice surprise. I can't wait to see the future encounters in the fairy tale world and how it develops more. What I'm most interested in is the interaction between Mary Margaret and John Doe (what's the name the Queen gave again) from now on. We haven't seen enough of Emma and Graham together for me to really feel much for them yet, hopefully the future episodes will develop that thread some more.

his name on Storybrook is David Nolan. I am definitively looking forward THAT, but I bet it will be more angsty and might as well saying it, frustrating lol than the Fairy Tale world one, that seems so far, more lighter in some ways

True, the angsty might get to be too much if they drag it out. I guess it will be interesting how Snow White and Prince Charming's path cross again as we've only seen the beginning and the end of their relationship in the fairy tale world.

Yeah Regina is definitely enjoying twisting the knive and hurting Mary Margaret. I felt so bad for her, she was finally believing Henry and feeling a connection to David, and then everything came crashing down.

(Wait, are we really calling them Snowing??)
I find that I'm really shipping them, too. I didn't in the first 2 episodes, but they really caught me in the 3rd episode. I loved the little cute stuff between and how he trapped her. The idea that these two are meant to be together.
I think it hit me in this episode that Snow White/Prince Charming are actually a pretty iconic couple.

I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about this stuff just yet. I just wanted to get the ball rolling. What is it about iconic couples who are meant to be that draws us in so?

I think there's something about knowing that from all that history that these two are meant to be, and seeing how each adaptation takes us there. We know that Snow and Charming are it for each other, and always will be- now we get to take the journey with them as their real-life cursed alter egos find this out as well.
Plus, those two just have that kind of incendiary chemistry that you want in a couple. The look he sent her way when he was looking at her over his "wife's" shoulder in the hospital was just heartbreaking and lovely.

Oh yeah, I loved that scene! I was so heartbroken. I was telling Jade that I could tell that I was going to ship those two as soon as I cried, "Oh, HELL NO!" when the stupid chick came in and said she was his wife.

I mean, I've never shipped a TV couple as bad as I ship Lois/Clark on Smallville and even in the darkest days *looks at Seasons 5,6,7* it was the fact that they were meant to end up together that kept me watching.

Yeah, I've never shipped anyone like Clois before, either. I mean, I'm a happily ever after type of a girl. Liz/Darcy. Harry/Ginny. Anne/Gilbert.
There's just something about an OTP that just seems DESTINED to be together that really makes me happy.
I never thought about Snow/Prince Charming before, but I think I can easily add their name to the list if this show handles the ship well.
