I agree. Every half season arc follows a similar formula which eventually makes things rushed.

3a-Peter Pan's whole I'll turn Henry to my side was random and rushed. It was not organic at all that Henry would just feel abandoned in like a day or two of waiting. But the rest was fine.

3b- Zelena could have used more backstory (actually a better more indepth and abusive one) because they seemed to be going for sympathy and reasons, but that was not at all good. She looks almost as crazy as Cruella.

4b- Now, the QoD really suffered in an arc, not at all about them. They should have just made it Maleficent and some friends/ villains wanted to resurrect her to find their happy endings. Instead, they painted them as a group or trio, but that is so far from the truth! They weren't even friends! This way they would have been easily disposable as the show makes it seem.
