“Fairy tales were just the beginning,” Entertainment Weekly observed of the hit series Once Upon a Time—a fan favorite that concludes its FIFTH season this Sunday night.

“We’ve taken the principle of being 12-year-old boys,” smiles co-creator Edward Kitsis {the nerdy one}, “and we’ve brought it to primetime.” And what 12-year-old boy isn’t a raging hunk of hormones sneaking peeks at pop’s Playboys?

Adds producing partner Adam Horowitz {the other nerdy one}: “We certainly have endpoints in mind for many of our characters, but we have different ways of getting there.” Just keep getting their pertest “points” out, and we’ll allend up happy!

As Zap2It.com summed up the series: “The goal of Once Upon a Time is to find happy endings. But the major point of conflict has been determining who deserves them. In fairy tale traditions, happily ever after is only meant for heroes… but there are a few worthy villains {uncovered in our Part 2 post} challenging that theory.”

One villain we’d love to see follow her basic instincts is Evil Queen Regina. And this is an ending we’d be most happy to see!

“Oh child no,” Regina remarks to Belle, who’s conflicted over her love for Dark One Rumpelstiltskin. “I would never suggest a young woman to kiss a man who held her captive. What kind of message is that?!

Our message is that the final Top 10 Heroinesamong Once Upon a Time’s 30 Sexiest Babes deserve a captive audience. Which, we hope, isbound to be you …

“If there’s one thing I’ve gleaned from you hero types,” Captain Hook tells Emma Swan when things look bleak, “it’s that there’s always hope.

Our hope is that Emma’s happy ending involves showing off star Jennifer Morrison’s best ass•et!

Once Upon a Time’s Villains Are Closer Than Its Heroes to Happy Endings,” headlined Zap2It before this season started. Butt everyone knows, as the T shirt says, that “Villains Don’t Get Happy Endings.”

That’s hottie heroine Rose McIver’s riveting rear at right above, and as her fallen fairy character Tinker Bell firmly tells a horny Hook: “I may have lost my wings, but I haven’t lost my dignity:

“Your happy ending might not be what you expect,” Snow White concludes on the show. “That is what will make it so special."

P.S. In response to Litos' comment posted before the finale aired: I was trying to keep the 3-part Once Upon a Time post to a nice “round table” of 30 (10 per part), but since you took the time to write in, you deserve a reward. Here’s Queen Guinevere (Joana Metrass) topless in her obscure 2011 Portuguese film.

Hope she lifts your Lance•a lot !
