I have already mentioned this in another thread but if I was in charge of Once I would only change season 1 by having at least one more Cinderella flashback.

Season two: I wouldn't change anything!

Season 3 I didn't like the whole Peter Pan and the OZ storyies taking so many episodes each. I would have added so flash backs of storybrook characters and maybe have the Cinderella and Annastasia realationship confirmed. Maybe add some new characters not sure who at the moment maybe Sherlock Holmes introduced in Storybrook.

Season 4 I liked the Frozen thing and liked the spell of shatterd sight. I would have used that to transform Ruby back into a wolf and her encountering a man who flees in fright back to his brothers house. The spell would have lasted another day so we could see this man in a flash back where he is just finishing building his house out of hay. Ruby appears just after she get seperated from Snow Ruby ends up attacking the man through no fault of hers. He escaps and gos to his brothers house made of stone and explains what had happened. and right here we have the three little pig story but in human form. We can have futher flashbacks in the episode to show how ruby attacks each of the brothers but not succeeding in killing them. In storybrook though the ruby under the spell chases the man and kills him just as the spell ends. We see ruby unable to transform back into ruby. Blue informs her that her deed of kiling a man needs to be punished and she is forced to stay a wolf till she experiences someone saying i love you to her and meaning it. (A man that is not someone like granny) We also have an explanation as to where Ruby is. We dont even need to see the wolf we can be told that she is locked up in the cells or something.

Changes to the Queens of Darkness would be to give Ursula a decent backstory, powers and a confrontation with Regina, a confrontation with Ariel and more power. I would give Cruella more flashbacks including how she met the real Pongo and Perdita and the 101 dalamations and I would give Malificent more time with Aurora and Philip in storybrook and maybe a deal Mulan and Aurora made with Malificent to get Philips soul back. I want Mulan back in Storybrook with Robin Hoods merry men and thats it. Oh and I would also give Blue a flash back to explain how she knew the author and the socerer were two different people. Maybe she met both and was told certain aspects about her future.
