But I also agree given where things are after the first half of season 4, it's nowhere near a proper ending for this series. I believe there will be at least one more season, but after season 5, it's really hard to tell. There are a ton of stories Disney has rights to or that are in the public domain that Adam and Eddy can do. It's really up to them, our main cast, and ABC executives to decide how long this show will go, because the number of stories that can still be done on the show is not a problem.

Yes; however, iust because Disney owns lot of stories doesn't mean the showrunners can adapt them all into the show. Not to mention magic has become the main element that runs in the show. So when they use up magical story characters, they won't have anything to go on with.
