Article: ABC's Once Upon A Time panel at Paleyfest 2012

Event: Paleyfest 2012 – Once Upon A Time Panel
Date: Sunday, March 4, 2012 – 1:00PM PST
Location: Saban Theatre – Beverly Hills, CA

Once Upon A Time is one of my new favorite shows on television. I’ve always been a huge fan of the Disney fairytales and Snow White is one of my favorite princesses. The way the writers have etched out back stories to all our favorite fairy tale characters is exhilarating. There’s always the perpetual question, “What is happily ever after like and is it really that happy?”

The panel moderator is Matt Mitovich from TVLine.com. The panel includes: Jennifer Morrison (Emma Swan), Josh Dallas (Prince Charming/David), Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow White, Mary Margaret), co-creators/executive producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, executive producer Steve Pearlman, Lana Parrilla (Evil Queen/Regina), Robert Carlyle (Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold), and Raphael Sbarge (Archie Hopper / Jiminy Cricket). Before the panel came out, we were treated to a screening of the episode airing later that evening, “Dreamy,” where we learned why Grumpy is so grumpy. We also got to see the first 10 minutes of Sunday, March 11th episode “Red-Handed” and let me just say – it’s bloody good!

Autographs on my Paleyfest program book: Raphael Sbarge, Lana Parrilla, and Ginnifer Goodwin

There are many wonderful moments, but one that immediately stands out in my mind is when an audience member from England thanks Josh Dallas (Prince Charming/David) for getting her 12 year old granddaughter “off Justin Bieber.” The entire place roared with laughter! It was hysterical. You can find video as Paleyfest You Tube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/paleycenter/playlists

3pm is a little early for cocktails but I couldn’t resist having an Evil Queen of Hearts! Purity Vodka with berry water and berry garnish…yum!

And finally, the best part of the afternoon was being able to attend the after party back stage where I got to meet Ginnifer Goodwin and Lana Parrilla! I also got Raphael Sbarge’s autograph but he was not able to stay and mingle for long. The other cast stayed out on stage to give autographs to fans and then left quickly to catch a flight back to Vancouver, BC where they are filming. The video includes some photos from back stage. Enjoy!

Judy Manning

Dream chaser extraordinaire! Judy tends to be a tad sarcastic and kind of goofy! She is an avid admirer of all things supernatural, paranormal, celestial and mystical. She loves to read, write, and watches way too much TV. She enjoys many genres of film and music (and let's be honest, most music from the 80s). She also has a wicked sweet tooth. Cupcakes beware.
