I think a "Desperate Housewives: The Next Generation" would bring in higher ratings and viewership that continuing Once Upon a Hook. When "Desperate Housewives" was on actresses like Eva Longoria and Teri Hatcher were regular staples on entertainment news show. Barely anyone on Once Upon a Time has generated the same level of attention/buzz to keep the show going strong.

One glaring advantage I see right away: In Desperate Housewives, the main housewives were fully developed characters - not just tools used to support the "fairy tale of season a/b" format. I don't think OUAT should be cancelled, I just think that abc needs to schedule it like seasons 1&2 so it would improve. I also think that OUAT is in no shape to lead a night so I wouldn't be surprised if it changes timeslot next season.
