oh, that makes sense (light bulb moment)

Jane Espenson is writing for Once Upon a Time. Suddenly, my extreme disinterest in the show makes entirely logical (if subconscious) sense. I mean, I knew she was, ages ago. But I didn't connect my disinterest with the fact that I dislike almost everything I've seen her write for tv.

Or maybe I'm just grasping at straws.

It always makes me happy when somebody says they're not really into the show - like, not because I hate it, and I'm super happy for the people who are into it, it's just that I've tried so hard to be interested in it and am just really, really not. And for the longest time it felt like I was totally alone in that, so it's always a little reassuring to know that I'm not ;)

The premise sounded really fun, and I want to like it, but I just... they're not doing anything that's really different from other shows.

That's pretty much how I feel about it - I love it in theory, and based on the characters and premise and everything, but the actually execution just does nothing for me. (I try not to mind because, while it's awesome to be able to squee over a new show - especially one most of my friends love too - it's not like I actually need a new one.)
