Once is like a slowly sinking ship that depends on the Dsiney connection to thrive.

Shondaland has more sway then Once will have. I meamn, Grey's Anantomy is still on for it's 100th season. That is their cash cow.

Once is more of a fickle balance. If an actor leaves or changes on Once (One of the main ones) then it would all fall apart. Like on Grey, if Hook randomly fell down a well and drowned, I don't see Once staying afloat after that major disturbance.

Once is a low class cash cow compared to Grey.

If ABC wants to cancel Once (which probably won't happen since they don't have anything to replace it with), then that would likely be it for the show. What do you mean by saying " if Hook randomly fell down a well and drowned, I don't see Once staying afloat after that major disturbance"? I mean that Once has a delicate balance (and for some reason you are really hoping Hook dies or something). Nothing more. If there is a major character writeoff, like what happened on Grey's Anatomy, Once wouldn't be able to handle that as werll as Grey's Anatomy. GA is still going strong with a slight decrease, while Once is like maybe half causal, half fandom and then a big chunk of fandom is attached to each character.

Once is like a little kid to Grey (11 seasons) and which has more sway.....obviously it would be GA and not Once. Grey's Anatomy has been losing viewers for a long time now. And many people who still watch it were not happy to see there Mer-Der ship go down in (gasoline fueled) flames. I have a feeling this season of Grey's many be it's last.
