The network had to do a major overhaul, because the new showrunner was destroying the characters. She was fired and the show was moved to Wednesdays.

Though, I do not foresee this happening with OUaT. Part of the reason the show went off the rails, is due to Disney using it as a gimmicky marketing ploy. Network interference, in the wrong places, is the problem. Regardless of its issues, the S6 finale worked well as a series finale. ABC should have just cancelled, and bought out the final year on Colin O'Donoghue's contract. Instead of attempting a soft reboot, that is more likely to fail than succeed. The Originals just survived its first season in the Friday night death slot, which I'm pretty surprised at. Don't get me wrong, I actually like the Originals, but I thought the CW would cancel it because the Vampire Diaries ended.
