To clarify, I’m not discussing dropping storylines, but their prominence.

For example, Hook and Alice had a leading storyline in 7A and might possibly be secondary in 7B. Speculation, of course.

Likewise with Regina/Henry. I don’t think they are going to drop Henry out of Regina’s life. It’s that it’ll take a backseat.

Another example is sort of like Ella not being the focus of the Cinderella story as Tremaine focused heavily on Gothel and Drizella focuses heavily on Tremaine. Also, Regina’s somehow intertwined more than Ella.

There is a valid discussion on if the settle family, start romance is a good or bad tactic. I think it’s mixed, but it’s also about quantity. Henry and Regina to Regina and Samdi and Alice and Hook to Alice and Robin, I guess it’s pretty subjective on how much is enough.

A good bait and switch was with Tremaine, Drizella, then Gothel and the Coven. You see it’s not about dropped plots, but scaling prominence. It differs for everyone, so I like to see other’s opinions. So, don’t take this as some raging complaint that the writers won’t cater to my every whims and that I’m pre-bashing them. (otherwise, it would go on a separate board.)
