Not that I'm complaining per se as it seems to be at least a fresh idea in serialized TV but I'm missing patient zero here. Usually, those trends come after a particularly successful show/movie with a certain theme.
I think this one may have sprung out from a book trend. There's lots of fairytale-ish stories at the moment, it would appear; the current fantasy scene is very Dark Urban-ish. Also, don't forget there was the "Red Riding Hood" movie and two "Snow White" adaptations are in the making.
