Thanks for the title. I sense a theme this season.
Since A&E wrote it, does that mean it's the mid season finale?

Probably no connection to the book, but "The Secret Garden" was one of my favorite books as a kid.

A&E writing it would make me think it's the mid-season finale too, but I don't see how they are going to air 11 eps in the first half. I guess they could air on the Friday after Thanksgiving, but the ratings will be terrible. Agents of Shield is using our time slot on Dec 1 for their 2 hour premiere.

I love that book and Little Princess but I think their sticking with fairy tales. We might have one break like we used to with American episode remember the year we had Birth and my favorite episode the Bear king in one night lol. I seriously never felt more stressed by a tv show lol to top it of two week hiatus

I did think of "The Secret Garden" story, more of the 90's film than the book.

It's the title of a Bruce Springsteen song so I am guessing Winter/Spring premiere to keep with tradition.

Thanks. You always find those

kristi_adela

Makes sense to me. They have to keep tradition alive.

I'd forgotten that song, it's the one from Jerry Maguire.

My husband is a huge Springsteen fan. I pick it up by osmosis.

Though if you have never seen him in concert, it's a must. He's phenomenal and plays for hours, including taking requests from the crowd for covers of anyone's songs.

So, no sneak peeks?

fox24

I have seen him in Concert. He played songs from his 2013 album and he did sing Dancing in the Dark. No New York was sang unfortunately it's my favorite ouat episode with a springstein title.

Given the romantic vibe of the song, I'm going to say that this will be Henry/Jacinda centric. Maybe the curse is broken in the winter finale and they finally reunite. But since Adam and Eddy are not doing half-seasons anymore, they could drag out the curse to the season finale (like with Emma in season one).

Radames

I don't see them dragging the curse all season especially if this is the last one.

Gwen107

To me it would not be dragging but to give it the time it deserves like in previous seasons when they did not do that thing with telling a story in only one half of a season and then a new one in the second, which I never liked and which was always rushed and not satisfying to me at all. I want to see this as the story of a whole season like in season 1.

Austenphile

I agree. I want the curse to break in the season finale.
