- Use more Camelot mythos and characters.

- Don't drop all the plot threads from Season 4 (Lily, Will, etc.).

- Actually fact check the scripts with previous episodes. 5A had to be the worst at this out of all the seasons and arcs. Lots of things didn't fit, or fit very awkwardly, with things already established. That was one of my biggest problems with 5A as well. In the season 4 finale, Lily talks about finding her father, and the writers completely forgot. They want to move forward with the story without reflecting on previous events. I feel like we can give them a pass on this one since Agnes got pregnant. They cannot stop that from happening. Actresses film pregnant all the time. If Agnes had gotten really big, they just use a body double for body shots, and just shoot her face, and/or have her character be conviently standing behind things that cover her stomach area. Perhaps she wanted the maternity leave?

And then by the time she could have gotten back to work (her son was born in March 2016 so she probably wuld have been available for season 6) there was way too much happening to put her in.

There is also that, love it or hate it, season 5, 5A especially, focussed on the core characters, primarily Emma, and so any minor character was pushed to the background.

Look I get criticising A&E and they do deserve it a lot but complaining that they allowed a pregnant actress to have maternity leave is ridiculous.
