I think they might realize with the backlash towards JMo’s departure, alongside sinking ratings, continuing the show isn’t worth it at this point. Quote I think it’s too late for that. In my opinion, they’ll renew the show for 10 more episodes and that’s it. American Idol will replace OUAT in March. Quote I think this is the most likely scenario too.
Really then why bother. If they are going to try a reboot then they need to go for it, plan for a full season and let’s see how it goes. I am actually kinda looking forward to the reboot now that JMO is gone. I think they should probably end Carlyle and Emilie too (although not by death!). Keep Regina, Hook, and Zelena as side characters and introduce the main new ones and let’s see how it goes. I think the focus needs to be brought off of Disney a little bit also. I loved the idea of untold stories and thought they could do a whole lot more with that than they did.
