Eskaver, I could list dozenz if not a hundred or so direct references on ONCE from Disney. But I'll name a few for fun...(It may have been in only one episode, but it counts!)

Snow White: Red bow in Snow's hair, yellow dress (promo pic?), Grumpy singing Heigh Ho, Scene where Snow eats the apple and falls. Regina walking around Disneyland promoting it in a commercial (see youtube).

Beauty/Beast: Yellow Dress on Belle, blue jacket on Rumple during the dancing scene, the chipped cup. (not in book)

Cinderella: No feet were cut off anywhere. Blue dress. (not in book)

Cruella de Vil: Obvious.

Frozen: Obvious.

Little Mermaid: Ariel has RED hair, Ursula sings Fathoms Below and "ah ah aaah" when she gets her voice back. No dead mermaid in the end (like in the book). Per Eddy (or Adam?), Ursula's green look was inspired by Broadway's The Little Mermaid (DISNEY).

Mulan: Obvious.

Maleficent: Not obvious in 1st season, but definitely (and completely) influenced from the disney animated movie.

How many more do you need? It's delusional to dismiss all of these examples (and more), it's denial by it's very definition.
