Once Upon a Time

ABC's Once Upon a Time isn't the only new pilot dipping into the realm of fairy tales, facing some critical comparison to NBC's Grimm. As different as the series are however, we're afraid the more fantastical Once Upon A Time might prove more difficult to access than the gritty procedural of Grimm

Still, the impressive writing and producing staff includes LOST's Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis and sci-fi legend, Jane Espenson, which is more than enough to attract fantasy fans.
