OUAT wont run out of material for exciting seasons anytime soon. Imagine all of the stories they hae told and then imagine the depth of each story they could go into if they wanted to. There is more story to be told in a lot of different areas. Aladdin, alice in wonderland was barely touched, the jungle book, and a lot more. i understand even if disney has a million movies it doesnt matter. in order to make the show's theme they need to be fairy tale based. even if only 25% of disney characters are fairytale based its still a lot to work with. a lot of successful tv shows only have a 1 storyline to follow. the fact that OUAT has 20 or more makes its longevity in the aspect of writing material enough for 50 seasons. look at super successful shows like grey's anatomy or supernatural, one has the storyline or people working at a hospital and the other is heaven vs hell and with those linear sotries they managed to get out 11 seasons with no end in sight. worry about the ratings more than the material. the material will be there, the fan base needs to show up too for it to work.
