This clock tower:

Looks to be composited on top of this building:

Which is actually this building, power pole and all:

IF the clock itself is the Dundas clock, it's been moved to Steveston courtesy of Photoshop magic... although it seems to be a pretty generic-looking clock.

From this article, it sounds like the Enchanted Forest is actually the base of Mount Seymour, behind Capilano College in North Van: http://vancouverisawesome.com/2011/0...eston-village/

Both episodes were entertaining. Will see where it goes. I thought it was going to be a little bit darker then what it is.

It's ABC Sunday-night family fare, so they can't get TOO dark with it. So far so good, though...

I tweeted one of the show's stars, Ginnifer Goodwin, and she replied that all filming is done in the Vancouver area.

Good to see it's still doing well for ABC. Each week has been getting better and better for me, and I can't wait to see what happens next.

The fact we're getting a full season is another bonus.

I've been watching this with Rogers on demand, but it seems CTV doesn't seem to carry it on demand anymore...or hasn't it aired for a couple of weeks?

Ok, thanks. They must not have put up the Nov. 27 one yet.

BGY11 · 2012-05-14, 12:14 AM

Resurrecting this thread as I just watched the season finale. Overall, I was quite impressed with the way this series progressed. There were a few horrible episodes, but the last few made up for it.

Without spoiling things for those who haven't watched the finale yet, I will say the first 10 minutes or so was just amazing! The whole episode built up into a great conclusion that, although predictable, was still great (in my opinion). Luckily this was renewed for a second season, and I can't wait to see what the end scene means for the upcoming season.

gbamber · 2012-05-14, 12:20 AM

That hospital room is filmed where I used to work, as well as the basement scene and sheriff's office.

Hope they continue with a good story arc.

When the Blue Fairy ("bubbled" I call her) first appeared some thought she was Tinkerbell, because the closed captions said something "Tknling bells".

My full comment was:

Get rid of Tinkerbell, Jiminy Cricket and anything not from a Grimm Fairytale (come to think of it, that includes Gepetto and Pinocchio) and it may last a bit longer.

Interesting how Pinocchio turned out to be one of the better characters there. But I can still do without the fairy and the cricket, and Gepetto server no real purpose, really.

I disagree - Gepetto gave the Pinocchio characters some depths, and grounded it. Made him more human, more someone we could care about, after his scam failed to convince Mr. Gold

wprager · 2012-05-20, 07:56 AM

True, but there are many ways to do that. As a character on his own, I do not (yet) care abuot Gepetto one way or another. Of course you can't introduce Pinocchio without Gepetto. And I suppose the same would apply to Jiminy and the Blue Fairy. Maybe one of the issues is that there are just too many characters, period.
