SUNDAY

... In my favorite, and certainly most romantic, episode to date of ABC's breakout Sunday fable Once Upon a Time (8/7c), we get some juicy back story for Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin), first seen as a feisty vagabond thief in the woods, one of the Evil Queen's "Most Wanted," when she encounters Prince Charming (Josh Dallas). The rest is fairy-tale history, including an encounter with some greedy, grody trolls. These flashbacks give urgency to the vigil at comatose John Doe's hospital bedside, as little Henry contrives to bring Snow's alter ego Mary Margaret and her unwitting soulmate together. It's a big improvement over last week's perilously campy outing.
