I agree too. For me the next problem is the story they are doing now. The characters go to the Underworld to revert the death of one person.

But if they do a story where death can be reverted and one person can come back..... the next question why can others not come back too. Like Neal.

I think there going to make it a one time thing and it won't be for every character but let's not get into it because I don't want to debate the Uw nor the character there going for. I don't want to hear negative things about him nor emma

I hear you and I'm not a huge fan of the setup for 5B either because I believe long-running shows need real stakes. If you go into a story knowing it'll work out just fine anyway and there's zero reason to worry, it takes away part of what makes these fantasy/adventure type of stories so entertaining. Granted, popular fairytales are a bit like that too, everyone knows they end with "and they lived happily ever after". But ONCE still used to treat death differently and Adam and Eddy used to be very proud of the fact that Graham, for example, died to raise the stakes and to enforce the idea that even magic can't fix everything. Death used to be pretty much the only serious, final stake for our characters and I do worry that the upcoming arc is going to take away from that, but alas... we shall see.

I want to say my critic was not about Hook. He is only a chara and the chara who they are writing this story with. But going to the Uw and reversing death is the writers's idea.

If they make it a 1 time thing the question is the same. Why now. Why not when Henry wanted to bring Neal back. I agree with Koda. When you begin with exceptions it makes the writing hollow.

I know I was just afraid.

Well cause they were busy getting the darkness out of emma and they didn't know about the. Uw. plus the life exchange. They wanted to save it for 100 episode
