Thank you bb! :D And IKR, I love this show, but why is it so frakking white? And it's not like "these are European fairy tales, everyone was white", because they do have fairy tale characters of color, they're just all in the background (well, except Regina). UGH.

NAVEEN AND NOAH FOR THE EFFIN WIN
SERIOUSLY CAPS ARE NECESSARY FOR MY LOVE OF THIS RECAST

[facethestrange]

:DDD THANK YOUUUU.

Oh my goodness, Naveen Andrews as Charming DO WANT.

[facethestrange]

Hee, thank you! It took me the longest to choose Charming, so I'm glad you like! :D

Tricia as Regina - niiiiice. :D

Great choice all around tho.

[facethestrange]

IKR? She would be so perfect, I want to seeeee it. xD

Thank you! :D

I love that you recast POC into the roles. As much as I love Once, I've been disappointed by the lack of diversity thus far. Naveen is perf ♥

[facethestrange]

My thoughts exactly. Thank you! :)

I was SO sure you had picked Katee as Emma. I AM DISAPPOINT! *lol*
But Tricia is a great choice. And if Noah Gray-Cabey had played Henry I probably wouldn't have hated that kid so much :P

[facethestrange]

I was mostly like "I can't cast Katee EVERYWHERE, can I", LOLOL, and also I came up with most of this before I found out that she auditioned for Emma. BUT OMG IF SHE ACTUALLY WAS EMMA. OMFG.

[malicat.livejournal.com]

Yeah...But on the other hand,I'm kinda glad because then I couldn't have given up on this show :P

[facethestrange]

Lol, it's by far my favorite current show, so I wouldn't have that problem. :D More like "that's way too much awesome to handle, what do I do with all that awesome?" xDD Also she'd be one of #1 tv stars again, bawww, Longmire can't do that.

Love your recast - especially Phoebe for Red and Tricia for Regina! Also Michelle would make a perfect Snow <3

[facethestrange]

Thank you bb! ♥

PHOEBE AS RED/RUBY. THAT IS THE BEST RECAST EVER. OMG.

[facethestrange]

:D THANKS!

J. F. C. This cast is flawless. If there was voting for this challenge, I'd be voting for this. POCs FTW! I squeed when I saw Naveen as Charming (I think you're the only one to look outside white actors for these lead roles) and it kept getting more awesome with Michelle Rodriguez (so perfect for Emma's role!) and PHOEBE TONKIN. <3

[facethestrange]

Awww, thank you so much! ♥ :D

[landscapeheart.livejournal.com]

I love your choice for Red!

[facethestrange]

Thank you! :) She was my only idea for Red, at first I didn't think that anyone other than Meghan Ory could play her, but then I thought of Phoebe and I just had to add her, even though I already had 5 characters (which was the requirement). :D

[dharmacidal.livejournal.com]

Very cool! I love this!!!

[facethestrange]

Thank you! ♥

Naveen as PC is love. He's so sexy. And loving Michelle R as Emma. Though not even sure if she could make me like Emma. I want to so bad because she's a main and I like Jennifer but the writing is really bad for her.
