-Disney cashgrabs. Frozen is a great example (and it just happened to work well) as is the Queens of Darkness arc (you really expect me to believe that 4B just happened to be a year after the release of Maleficent? And it was probably in the works around the time the film was released? In addition to two other iconic Disney villains?). The dropping of Lily's storyline makes sense if you think about that; Mal was likely a disney cash grab. Maleficent was actually intended to probably have an arc earlier, however, Kristin was busy with another show. That show finished by the time Season 4 came around, which was why they were able to do it then. Which is probably why they made sure Aurora and Phillip were kept around for Seasons 2 and 3, so they could do the Mal backstory.
