The thing is, when the flashbacks were employed on LOST to give us insight into the characters and to reveal their complexities, they worked because the characters were so interesting.
They're trying the same method here but it only serves to slow this boring series down further because the characters aren't compelling. I had no idea that the Sheriff was even a major character!
In this episode, we learn the Sheriff was a hunter in the fairy tales. With a pure heart and noble intentions, he always nailed his target. The evil Queen uses his skills to kill Snow White. He's unable to do so though and the Queen takes his heart for defying her order.
Big deal. Boring.
Again, this show doesn't have enough conflict to last this initial season. One character now realizes the kid is telling the truth. It won't be long till everyone does and then the series would be over, wouldn't it?
Let's hope this all takes place next episode so we can end this show forever.
