And it’s a mouthful, and not a particularly pleasing one. Not snappy, you know? Like I would expect a GG title to be...

YES. So not snappy!

SAME

It was simple and sweet. A Year In The Life sounds too extravagant (which is one of the worries I have about the revival--that it’ll be too extravagant). Plus, it makes me think of the Beatles instead of Carole King.

doesn't he mostly call him that sardonically when he's trying to annoy him though?

Haha yes mostly but that was just part of what made it cute I think. It was just their thing. And then in Jess’ last episode when Luke calls Jess nephew :) It was just almost like a little inside thing they had and that’s what made it cute to me

I was trying to remember a time when he didn’t but i just watched the episode where he dressed up like luke in the diner and i couldn’t think of any other time. lol

after I saw your comment I quickly checked the episodes with Jess from season 6 and 4 where Luke and Jess were on better terms and he never calls Luke “Uncle Luke” in those..

I think the writers set it up that way on purpose to show us the injustice of it, to help us feel what Regina is presumably going to be feeling-how unfair it is. The writers meant to rub salt in our wounds and I'm okay with that because it's a storytelling technique that they chose and I have to respect that, being a writer myself. It wasn't an arbitrary choice and I am glad to see something that feels like a good writing choice for what they want to play out between the characters.

Maybe. And IF this is something they actually follow up on, then sure. On the other hand, as others have pointed out, it’s not the first time they’ve set something up this way. The vault scene was just as inappropriate and by all accounts, that was just thoughtlessness on the writers’ part. And as it stands, we’ve no real indication that this’ll actually play into anything. So I can understand why people, at this point, aren’t willing to trust that it wasn’t an arbitrary choice - we’ve no real proof, and they’ve done it before. And even if it was a storytelling choice, it was a heavy-handed one, and it’s made a lot of people angry, so I’m just not sure I’d call it a good one no matter what the reason for it, you know?

On a purely personal level, I wish they’d stop with this Emma-vs-Regina stuff just because it makes the fandom a really exhausting place. But that’s just my feeling on the matter.
