Breakout TV Show, Fall 2011: Once Upon a Time

It’s not a big surprise nor a shocking news whatsoever that this baby is about to blow your present choices of routine television shows to watch as soon as you loosen that tie and kick off those Manolos, because Once Upon a Time is definitely a show-stopper come Fall 2011! Coming up next, we have Once Upon a Time Season 1 Episode 4: The Price of Gold this coming November 13, 2011! And even if the television series is comparable to a Madonna-eat-your-heart-out-titian-blond-stunner because of its intricate plot and embellished fairytale storyline, still experts didn’t see the big picture: that even if we’re a little too old for fairy tales, the show garnered a staggering 12.8 million viewers in the United States alone for its October 23 pilot.

And after just three airings (we are actually down to Once Upon a Time Season 1 Episode 4: The Price of Gold this week), Once Upon a Time, which tells about a band of fairy tale characters who get trapped in a New England town, is exuding those telltale signs of being the breakout broadcast drama of the fall, thank you Deadline Hollywood!

Imagine, 12.8 million viewers despite steady competition from the phenomenal The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror which is an annual Halloween tradition in the US! Supposedly, the usual routine and fate of a new program’s ratings just drop in the second week, once the initial oomph of curiosity wears off. Eat your heart out Hollywood, because Once Upon a Time defied tradition! So this week, don’t forget our very next episode, Once Upon a Time Season 1 Episode 4: The Price of Gold!  

Most analysts attribute the new TV sensation’s success due in part to its flawless originality, you know, in an industry where police procedural dramas and family scandals are a staple, and its homely, family-friendly vibes. Plus, by tapping into a family-oriented audience with its embellished tale of a prince, Snow White, an adopted boy and an evil queen, truly, ‘Time may be filling a gap in primetime TV show on the major broadcast network, ABC. Get your nice cuppa’joe and bring back those childhood memories of fairytales, only Once Upon a Time Season 1 Episode 4: The Price of Gold and the upcoming episodes could bring!
