The BF storyline felt so rushed while the Evil Queen's story was starting to get so good before POOF, she got turned in to a snake only to disappear for a few episodes. Then she comes back ready to KILL Regina and then all of a sudden her and Regina make amends. I think the Black Fairy would have made a much better villain for Season 7. They could have spent more time in Season 6 teasing of her arrival. I am convinced that the EQ/Regina was meant to be the endgame villain but they changed their plans and had to go for the Black Fairy instead. I mean the writing was all there and it made perfect sense.

Which is why the finale sucked so bad, because we were fighting a villain we had no investment in and was shoved in 10 episodes before the finale
