After all these years, Once Upon A Time has come to an end and of course I wanted to make something to commemorate that. The finale made me surprisingly emotional (I actually cried at that last shot) and I'm so glad everyone got their happy endings, especially my favorite pairings. So this video is mostly about them and their journeys, with the overall theme being about these characters' stories and how so many things have come full circle, which this song just seemed so appropriate for.
I hope you all like it! And goodbye Once Upon A Time. Here's to believing in even the possibility of a happy ending.
Song - "The Story" by Brandi Carlile
Footage - Once Upon A Time

[@saimahaych]

Cora, Pan, Zelena, Nimue/Darkness, Death, Hades, Hyde/Jekyll and so many more battles they have fought, they always made it in the end with their hope, belief and love.

[@lucylol3644]

I'm not crying, someone is cutting up onions somewhere..

[@PositivelySqueeful]

I wish there was a "love" button, because a simple thumbs up isn't enough for this gorgeous perfection! There couldn't be a more perfect song. I started tearing up from the opening notes. You have captured the beauty of this show so well. Thank you for the sweet memories!

[@gss42x]

Thank you, I really appreciate it!

[@alyssaroc]

[@pjthedj3137]

The only thing I was disappointed for the ending was the interaction of Emma and her new daughter in law and granddaughter. Not to mention the charmings as well. I want that scene! But we still have fan fiction! But yes this was a good tribute to this wonderful show! I miss it so much

This is beautiful. I fell out after the second season, but this almost makes me pick it back up. Glad to know my favorites got their happy ever after.

[@gss42x]

Thanks!

[@VidDuality]

Awwwwww!!! So good! This show certainly had its ups and downs (some plot threads were excellent, some meh, others occasionally exhausting), but I still wouldn't trade the experience for the world. I'll take OuaT with all its crazy plot lines and wonderful moments (and even the occasional "WTF are you doing?") and treasure it always, because sometimes it's just nice to get lost in a fairytale once in a while. 😊 Beatiful tribute to an adorable show!

[@gss42x]

Agreed. And thank you!

[@ListenToyourHeart9898]

They will always be in my heart this will always be one of my favourite show I’ve ever seen for a very long time and I will miss it forever. Through it all deaths,love,Happiness, Weddings,funerals and misery they all are and became a family through it all that ever happened to them they are friends for lifetime ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️ This show has everything: happiness, love, family, magic, deaths, funerals, comedy, wedding’s, and very much happy ending even for the villains They are that family WHO always in the end always finds each other that kind of family WHO is worth fighting for. That's why i Loved this show so much and going to miss this show the most specially all of the characters in this show, In someways I became a part of this TV-SHOW family because I watched this show so much I fell in love with everyone of them even the villains too so thank you for doing this show I was so blessed for had seen this show and I TRULY COMPLETELY WILL MISS IT FOREVER AND ALWAYS 😍😍😍😍😍 I really truly am happy that we will see more of Emma again I have missed her so much it wouldn’t had been any OUAT without Jennifer Morrison the show has finally come to a end and that Emma really truly comes back and Snow White and David and all of them too who were on the show right from the beginning They all had their life story they all had very different stories, everyone of them that’s why this show was so good and that’s why I loved this show so much they all became a family because of all of the things they been through together all because of they really truly became a family in the end after all In the end they all got everything they ever wanted and they even got even more too I’m so glad that happened to all of them in the end

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it

[@alanameechan5650]

its been 8 months since the last ep of ouat came out. And wow how I miss sitting down to watch a new episode. Im so glad I was apart of such a wonderful show it will always have a special place in my heart. Its taught me so many life lessons and its given me the most amazing memories. I remember a few years back me and all my friends would go to someones house the day ouat would be on and we would talk all night about what had happened and what we think would happen in the next episode. Those are memories I will hold onto forever. Ngl a tear or 2 did come to my eye watching this. I don't think I will ever get over the fact its never going to come back on.

[@gss42x]

Yeah it was a great show

[@Time-lord-jedi]

This quote really truly fits them all perfectly specially because it’s their last episode together ever: HOW LUCKY I AM TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT MAKES SAYING GOODBYE SO HARD

[@blacksophie2107]

Song choice- perfect. you did an amazing job of capturing the magic, love and emotion that is once upon a time. I recently finished my first rewatch of the show and now I want to watch it again!

[@gss42x]

[@gss42x]

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it

[@meeshell384]

While I can't tell you when exactly it was that I stopped watching the show, this was such a nice video to see today. It brought back a lot from when I did watch. And it's actually amazing to me how you pieced all of this together. The amount of footage this show has is daunting, but you took it on like it was no big deal. The parallels in this are incredible. My favorite was definitely the bit that started at 0:55. I think the combination of the song, the clip choice, and your timing was stunning. Speaking of the song, it's such a lovely throwback. Definitely a favorite of mine and beyond a perfect choice for this show. Well done!

[@gss42x]

Thank you so much! That means a lot coming from you. I'm glad you liked it.

[@tatisakura81]

Applause! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 The music, the storytelling, the editing! Truly a remarkable work. Well done.
