Anyway, I for one am unhappy that they are changing the returning characters. Especially Regina. Like that guy says in his video, these are characters that we've grown to love over the course of six years/six seasons. Changing them now is a surefire way to make your fans hate you. Why change them in the first place? Imagine the massive backlash a show like Stargate SG1 would have gotten if they decided to change Carter or Jackson's persona's from season 7 onward. It's the same thing here. Regina, Rumple, and Hook are characters that long time fans know and love for a reason. Changing them now is NOT the way to go.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, it seems to me E&A only care about new viewers. They clearly don't give a damn about the long time fans. Basically those of us that have been loyal supporters of the show since the beginning are getting screwed. I think you and the guy in the video are missing the point. It's not that Regina is being permantly changed to a new character, it is that she is cursed, just like she did to everyone in Season 1. And if there is one thing we know about Once, it is that curses are always broken.
