I've just finished watching ep 11, where are you up to?
It's just! I find this show soooooooooooooo frustrating, because I want it to be... well, like Princess Tutu or something, a deconstruction of fairy tales; and it's never going to be that, it's going to have very painfully cheesy manicheism BUT I still love Regina and Emma even if they are ridiculous characters, and they're hot, and I want to be able to ship them even though sometimes it's hard because of all the cheese :/
It is, as you say, painfully cheesy, and yet for some reason I also find it a lot of fun? It's nice seeing so many women on TV, for one thing! I am not so much for Regina/Emma, although I would totally go for Emma/Mary Margaret (with all the weirdness that entails).
The only other thing I'm watching live-ish right now is Justified, which is a much better show but sadly lacking in the women department. I usually only watch TV when I have someone I'm watching a show with, otherwise I lose interest and forget (like with Dexter). I think the only thing I've ever managed to watch straight through by myself was Avatar.
