We are coming up to the season 4 finale, and then we will have somewhere like 18-19 weeks of waiting until the beginning of season 5.

With thier penchant for 11 episode arcs, they could easily do a single arc spin-off during the summer hiatus. There are plenty of supporting cast characters that could easily carry an arcs worth of action. And surely Storybrooke is not limited to just the main crisis of the week, or if not Storybrooke, then other realms (Return to Wonderland, OUaT in Oz, Arendelle, Neverland, even the EF, etc).They could even use different settings for each break, focusing on different characters.

Having seen OUATiW, it was a good self-contained story, and that is exactly the format that I think would work well for interseason arcs.

Anyone else feel the same way, or am I way out in left field?
