It will be cool to see how an ordinary citizen of Arendelle was affected by Elsa's ice curse, or how a regular mermaid became trapped in Ursula's garden, etc. One of the main issues I had with OUAT was that the worlds often felt small, since everyone seemed to know each other. It would've been cooler with more original characters, so I like this spin on it, but I still hope we see actual Disney characters, even if they're not in starring roles, otherwise, what would be the point of putting it in the Disney universe. True that. I can get over some minor coincidences to move the plot forward but by season 4 it seemed that every single storyline had to be intertwined with the others so that the writers could cram as much stuff as possible in few episodes.

Everyone is either related or had crossed their paths with the current new character somehow.

Not to mention that, to this day, I still don't get how big Storybrooke is supposed to be. It's so small that our protagonists always stumble upon the same characters and always visit the same places, yet it's so big that it (supposedly) inhabits every single person from the Enchanted Forest.
