512: Promos

Some food for thought. Me and RG noticed that ABC hasn’t been doing much on-air promotion for OUAT recently, even though the show returns just 3 weeks from now. We literally only saw the same 15 second promo from this past Monday air just once the entire night. And yet, they’ve played the promos for Quantico and The Family plenty of times. To add insult to injury, Quantico’s promo is a full 30 seconds, unlike the one they’ve been airing for OUAT recently. We’ll be keeping our eyes out for how ABC continues to treat OUAT’s on air promotion as we get closer to the premiere. Maybe we’re over thinking it, but found this lack of promotion oddly strange nonetheless.

Perhaps ABC are starting to wonder whether or not it’s worth keeping OUAT. Where once it used to be a universally praised show (there were a few minor issues but nothing major overall), as the seasons have progressed it’s gotten a lot more criticism for the messages it is sending out and the decline in storytelling. Some fans have actually left the show because of it, and if the fans are leaving that bodes ill for the show’s future. Also A&E said they had enough material for 5 seasons so maybe this is it for the show. How can you outdo a god of the underworld as a villain?

Unlikely since all they promote is Hook. The official website is like a shrine for Hook, their twitter is filled with Hook/CS photos).

They claim they have plans for 5 seasons, I don’t believe that’s true.

How can you outdo the random villain from the Underworld? You just bring a different random villain from somewhere else.

It’s definitely something to keep an eye on. With it being the 100th, with all the guest stars returning, you’d think ABC would go all out

That is the thing, is episode 100 for who? Only for Adam, but even he knows the truth and please dont come and talk about episode codes that abc may have or not, Blu ray and DVD made by ABC clearly states S4 had 23 episodes, outside US, most of the channels that air OUAT, say S4 had 23 episodes and aired 23 episodes during 23 weeks, that means that for all intends episode 100 was 511 and ABC knows that, reason why they also dont want to cause many buzz with being 100, but i also doesnt understand why they so bad want to pass episode 512 as  the 100th episode, why would be a problem if was stated that was 511, also they will have the party now when they are filming 520, when most of shows when reach 100 episodes, do parties when they are filming the episode not like 2 weeks before the episode is airing, so this is the most buzz in promotion they will have and i think ABC knows that these guest stars are not enough to cause buzz and bring viewers, now if this was the arc of Frozen ,that would have some major promos by now, bc they know those would call viewers.
