Well, if I were in charge I would bring the S1 formula back for good with a quiet, low-tension season-long arc that is forwarded by small, episode-long miniarcs focussing on characters. No wild hunt for magical whatnot, no Big(ger) Bad showing up, no contrived, over-complicated chessmastering: I would use the mini-arcs to tie up pending (and long-forgotten) plot threads from all over the show (Will Grupy and Nova get back together? Who's Lily's father? How does Will reunite with Anastasia? Did Tinker Bell actually become a fairy again? Is Tiger Lily still stranded on Neverland? What happened to Lancelot and Guinevere?) and then wrap up the show. Like, we're about to have the biggest battle ever that culminates the show, with S7 as an epilogue with everyone either in Storybrooke or FTL adjusting to a suddenly crisis-free life and picking up what they had to constantly postpone because they couldn't catch a breath.

Also, who was Nurse Ratcher back in FTL? (Okay, that's a running joke, I know we don't care anymore!)
