Well, sure, but they still have a music background and affinity for music. And it's not like these are some composers they pulled from the middle of nowhere, USA, these are ones that are considered worthy to work on tv shows and such, which means they have to be at least somewhat good at what they do. A&E has a background at writing for network TV and look how bad they are..., anyway, there's a reason why people don't like musical episodes, they are bad (with the exception of Buffy), so if better written shows with better showrunners couldn't do it, why would OUAT can? Especially that A&E said that they didn't know how to do it and especially when this idea is because of what the fans want. I know you hate everything and anything Adam and Eddy do, but they are actually fairly decent showrunners. I've seen a lot worse come from other showrunners, who's shows aren't nearly as complex as Once. And don't pass judgement on it before you even see it. Let's not forget this show is owned by Disney, and if Disney is good at one thing, it's music. I don't hate A&E, I just think they are hacks.

An example of Straw man argument: "Disney has (most of the time) good music, OUAT is owned by Disney,thus OUAT will have good music in the musical episode." Okay, so a straw man argument is pretending to refute an argument by refuting an irrelevant point. CDA stated that OUAT will have good music in its musical episode, so you are claiming that was not part of your argument, yes? But the post you responded to (my initial post) explicitly said that the rest of the episode could be bad, but the music will likely be good. So that would mean we are on the same page.
