* ExcusePlot: There's no real reason for Zelena to be involved in the Enchanted Forest plotline - but it can be forgiven by providing the episode with her epic VillainSong.

The musical spell in Buffy was technically also the result of a hero's wish.

* ShoutOut: Unsurprising for a show written by Jane Espenson, but the MusicalEpisode all being due to a magic spell, one where the people in question are confused and bemused by the constant singing, is very much reminiscent of the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' episode "Once More With Feeling." Inverted in that the spell was the result of a hero's wish and cast by the BigGood, rather than a demonic and dangerous curse. (Although Snow and Charming do at first think it's a curse, and of course the Evil Queen very much feels it is one.) Also, there's one person who by their own admission can't sing (this time Jared Gilmore) who only gets a single MandatoryLine (this time in the final reprise).

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Zelena's music box which takes the power of song from everyone doesn't undo the wish at all--it just gives Blue the opportunity to transfer everyone's love, hope, and belief into Emma's heart while the outer manifestation of the wish has vanished. This in turn gives Emma the power she needs in the future to stand up to the Black Fairy and save everyone.
