"Once Upon a Time" is an American fantasy adventure drama television series that aired on ABC from October 23, 2011 to May 18, 2018. The show borrows elements and characters from Disney and popular Western literature, folklore, Greek mythology, and fairy tales.

For the first six seasons, the series is set in the fictional seaside town of Storybrooke, Maine, in which the residents are actually fairy tale characters that were transported to the real world town and robbed of their memories by the Evil Queen Regina (Lana Parrilla) who used a powerful curse obtained from Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle). The residents of Storybrooke, where Regina is mayor, have lived an unchanging existence for 28 years, unaware of their own carelessness.

The town's only hope lies with a bail-bonds person from the Land Without Magic, named Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison), only daughter of Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Prince Charming (Josh Dallas). Emma was transported from the Enchanted Forest to the real world via a magic wardrobe as an infant before the curse was cast. As such, she is the Savior, the only person who can break the curse and restore everyone's lost memories.
