People are going to harp on season 7, but I don’t think it’s the exception to the rule.

It’s basically about payoff and how it really looks like the loose ends we’re flying every which way and that tied it randomly into a knot. Basically, each plot was a means to an end...but the way didn’t matter much.

Coven? It was just used to use a couple of witches and a backstory for Gothel. Replacements? It’s was a “twist” to show how unstoppable she was. (Note: They did show Gothel mesmerize Ana in 11 and create a memory restoring plant in 6. So, they did their job there, even though that hardly referenced it.)

Guardian? What a twist that the Guardian has another fate?!

Rumple? What a big, big shocker that Rumple found a never before seen plot contriv- loop hole....with a vial of magic, no less!

So, that’s the story. The Candy Killer plot was mostly due to having Nick as a character and the Coven being introduced.you pretty much can’t introduce characters and do nothing then, even minor. Plus, we can all say none of us were buying or caring about that 5 second love triangle.
