Not only is that a terrible run for a tv show (2 and a half seasons would be a failure for a drama), 3A did not end with a happy ending for anyone, except Emma and Henry, but even then it wasn't a true happy ending, it was a false happy ending created by Regina to spare Emma and Henry pain. And as much as everyone commenting on here seems to think that everything after 3A (or 3B) is not part of the original plan, I disagree. They wanted to do Oz stuff since the Pilot, Sleeping Beauty stuff was set up in 102, Camelot stuff was set up in 203, and Greek Myths have been on the show since early Season 1. The only things we know were not part of the original plan would be the Frozen and Brave stuff. It's not about the stories, I'm sure they have a long list of stories they want to do since season 1, it's about the main characters. I'm sure they had a plan for them, but they changed everything to force Hook and Robin in and it just seems that since 3B, they just do 360 character development every arc, means they didn't plan anything for them and just go in circles. Well, I guess that's the difference between me and other people. I don't expect for the main characters of a tv show to go anywhere, or at least not anywhere fast. What is interesting and unique to me about this show is how it inturpets, twists, and merges classic stories. That I think is more what Adam and Eddy had planned, along with a general end point for the show.
