The only reason I can see it working if it’s used as a hiatus buster during the break like as a mini series thing. They can do a short run of episodes explaining Hook’s arrival and escape from Neverland, they can do Bar’s time in Neverland and complete that over a short run of episodes. Just as a one shot throw if they need another hiatus buster they can do another one shot with other characters like for instance MAP, they can show the rescue of Prince Phillip, Mulan’s story, the original Sleeping Beauty story and complete that for a short hiatus run in the winter. There’s a lot of side stories they can bust out into hiatus breakers. You got to admit it would be nice to have one of those during this winter hiatus. From those two we could have Once Upon a Time In Neverland, and Once Upon A Dream.
I know now hindsight is 20/20 but if I could go back and do things for them a different way I would have done this long break last season during season 2. Had OUATIW air then for winter, for this season done OUATIN as a hiatus buffer this year and still had Once Upon A Dream for season 4. I think that would have worked.
