Good Lord.
This is the second thread in less than a week that has taken this uber negative, personal attack-like format. It’s not debating ideas, it’s not theorizing; it’s just arguing about the same things over and over.
Enough, guys.

ParticipantThis is the exact reason why I’m so happy “ships” are being removed as the central focus of this show, and we’re basically going back to a S1 Format, which was hands down the time when the only thing the OUAT Fandom argued about was who was who.
Onto other matters, what other fairy tale characters would you guys wanna see? Ones we haven’t already I mean. I personally wouldn’t mind seeing Dracula, or perhaps characters from the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Man, you just gave me flashbacks of all the “Who is Doctor Whale?” theories, from back in the day! That was so long ago already, but it was fun times! I recall people theorized he was the Big Bad Wolf, Monstro, Prince Eric, and someone even suggested the Hulk. Then I believe it was GoldenKey, who first successfully deduced that he was Victor Frankenstein?
As for your actual question, I too wouldn’t mind Dracula or Hunchback. I still want Dr. Facilier too, since we already have Tiana. If we do end up getting a new Rapunzel, I would be all for Flynn Rider and Mother Gothel as well.

Those are both good. I’d also love to see Gulliver from “Gulliver’s Travels.” I would love to see an American folklore realm with characters from legends like Paul Bunyan, Rip Van Winkle, and Sleepy Hollow. I was just watching “The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad” and I especially noticed the minor character who is the woman who Crushes on Ichabod that Brom Bones dances with at the Halloween party just to get close to Katrina. Her name is apparently Tilda. She could easily be made into a sympathetic character that would be very OUAT-esque to tell the story from her point of view.

That’s my number one pick.

ParticipantI am also really glad that the romance will be much lessened. I am not even a big fan of romantic relationships on shows. They always exist, but they are never why i watch a show, so it will be nice for this show to be about other things as well again.
I hope that the show does have mystery again. There hasn’t been mystery on this show in years. I am not a big fan of the idea of Dracula. I just think vampires seem really silly to me. This show is not funny. It has never been. It is not Buffy which was funny and dramatic at the same time and was able to do that with its monsters. I also think doing the hunchback could be really offensive. These aren’t like normal writers who can think about what that might mean for a character. I wonder if trying to figure out who characters are is going to be part of the show again.
I am already worried about what they are going to do with the LGBT relationship because i really can’t believe that Regina isn’t part of that couple. It just seems like a one off throw away thing. Especially because it is probably going to be Adelaide Kane’s, Drizella, who is still a guest star and it seems like they are just doing it to check the box a little bit better after how people were disappointed with the whole Red and Dorothy thing.

ParticipantAlso, one thing i think they really need to start doing again is just taking one character from a story like they did in the first few seasons. We just met the Hatter or Jiminy Cricket or Mulan and we learned their story instead of retelling the known story in the exact same way. Now Henry and Cinderella are taking over as the main story, so the characters related to them should be added, but the rest of the week to week characters should not get the grand story and should not linger around wasting screentime and they should stop telling the stories we already know and tell new stories. Like the princess and the frog should not get its full story told. If they are going to do that, they should use that to explain how this curse is like the curse that Dr. Facilier was trying to do, but not to tell the normal story of the Princess and the Frog. The normal story should be assumed and they should expand upon it.

ParticipantBesides Dr. F, I really wanna see Mother Gothel. She was the most and only enjoyable part of that horrible movie, Tangled. Also, a better version of the Cheshire Cat.
Also The Sanderson Sisters!!!
Alternatively, here are characters that I think I don’t want:
– Tarzan
– Pocahantas
– Flynn rider (Sorry….I hate that movie and he is such an ugh person)

I clung to that Big Bad Wolf theory for two seasons!!! LOL!!

That’s my number one pick.
With Tiana on board, I’m definetly excited to possibly see Dr. Facilier and figure out the mechanisms of his story. With OUAT’s theory of “Evil Isn’t Born, It’s Made”, I wonder what was the event in Dr. Facilier’s life that made him tick, or is it possible he’s another Cruella…someone who was potentially bad from the start.
Besides Dr. F, I really wanna see Mother Gothel. She was the most and only enjoyable part of that horrible movie, Tangled. Also, a better version of the Cheshire Cat.
Mother Gothel is someone I can definetly see being a part of the new stories, and I’ve gotta agree about the Cheshire Cat. There was always something sinister about him, and I’ve gotta feeling he could have quite the backstory if he was really focused on.

KeymasterAlternatively, here are characters that I think I don’t want: – Tarzan – Pocahantas
Agreed on both accounts.
Tarzan has never been a favorite of mine and doing real historical figures is super tricky.
