I think what complicates OUAT’s situation is the actors contracts. If this was say S5 it would absolutely get a full and final season to wrap it up. But the fact that we’re dealing with actor contracts complicates things a lot.
Agreed. But I think ABC has two options: 1) Cancel OUAT, letting all the actors out of their contracts, and try to totally over haul Sunday night with all new dramas. 2) Renew OUAT with mostly new cast members thereby keeping a low but steady show on Sunday night while they try to rebuild the rest of the week. The contracts are a big deal, but if ABC believes it can get a fair amount of money from ad buyers for one more season (even an abbreviated one) so that it has one more year to try and save the smoking ruin that is their network, they might just do it. A and E are obviously keen to do another year, actors or not.
Low but steady? If you get rid of any of our main characters there specific fanbases will be leaving with them.
For example get rid of Emma, you’re losing Hook fans as well. CS fans are not going to stay for one half of their pairing.
Snowing fans will leave if Gosh do
Dearie/Rumbelle fans will leave if Bobby does.
ER’s are the only ones that will stay and even though they and CS fans are the majority of the fanbase there’s no way they can maintain a show on just Regina and new characters. It would go so bad.
And how will they explain all of these characters leaving the show? Will Emma and anybody else leaving be swept in a curse to the EF and S7 will be about whomever stays reuniting the family? I’ve seen this post on Tumblr.
I think it’s a horrible move to split up CS yet again the episode immediately after they get married.
Just end the show on a high note. Ratings will be absolutely terrible next season if not by the end of this year.

Which explains why Reaper is suggesting it may not be saved and I’m with him. I’d much rather the show end with the cast I love then to come back to S7 and it be completely unrecognizable.
TBH I’m so happy it is. Because I’d much rather end the show this season then lose any of the core characters we fell in love with over 6 years.
Uh oh they asked fans to tell ABC we want a S7. Yep it’s the end for sure. The only time showrunners do that is when it’s the end.
The Enchanted Forest present day and The new curse may go hand in hand. A way to maybe send away people leaving this season without killing them off and giving us hope for a reunion in S7 should there be one.
I hope if that happens, they’re guaranteed a S7 instead of just ending the show there.
Hook on the other hand is hated by all the people from the fandom who do not ship CS
WRONG, I don’t ship CS but I’m fine with Hook.
People have had enough of Regina hogging up the screentime.
Well other than Robert Carlyle, Lana is the best actor on the show, and the plot this season is centered around her splitting herself and the EQ running rampant. It’s not her fault she plays with characters. People honestly should not have a problem with this.
When this could possibly be the last season of the show or the last season of the show for many characters not named Regina. It is a massive problem. She can have all the screentime next season but this season should be balanced with people that may not be back next season.
Actually I’ve seen a lot of people starting to turn on Regina fairly so because the lack of balance of everyone in S6 so far compared to her. People have had enough of Regina hogging up the screentime.
Actually you want my opinion. There’s 2 big fandoms still in this fandom that ABC needs in order for the show to survive past S7 but it won’t so it doesn’t matter.
Those two fandoms are the CS fandom and the ER fandom. And since ER and CS shippers are always at war with each other if you focus on one you lose the other. Wrapping up CS and giving them a happy ending sends the CS fandom away and then they can just have the ER fandom for one more season.
I know people don’t want to admit anything but Regina is very much a divisive character in the fandom especially after all the focus she’s had this season. Which has not been well written whatsoever. She’s as much loved as she is hated, especially going by Adam’s mentions and things on Twitter. Her and Hook are this way and have been for a while now.
