I hope that ABC considers running another OAaT mini-series. OUaTiW is what drew me into the fandom in the first place, and maybe future mini-series like it will also increase viewership of the original series. :) This was my exact thought from the beginning. Each spin off mini series can be one season, but collectlivly be a whole series. A Once Upon A Time Worlds series, if you will. Meanwhile, the main show continues on with it's own stuff. Of course, characters and places can crossover at times for a more complete canon. As for what I would think would make other good "Worlds" seasons: Once Upon A Time in Oz, Once Upon A Time in Narnia, Once Upon A Time in Prydain, Once Upon A Time in Middle Earth, just to name a few. I'm not familiar with Prydain, but I disagree with Narnia and Middle Earth. Those stories are so complete on their own, and plus I disagree with them being quite classics in the same sense as everything else on the show...I'd just rather not see them on OUaT. And Oz and Wonderland are incomplete? Oz has 14 books written about it by the original author (L. Frank Baum). Also, I think C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Toliken would be insulted to have their imensly popular works not considered "classic". Finally, as Choc wrote, Prydain is what The Black Cauldron is based on, although in truth it is a series of 5 books called The Chronicals of Prydain, and The Black Cauldron is just a mash up on the first two books (The second of which is called The Black Cauldron), and, as you can probably suspect the books are far superior to the movie.
