What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, Once Upon a Time centers on Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison). Although for the first 28 years of her life, Emma believed herself an orphan, she is in fact the daughter of Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Prince “Charming” aka David (Josh Dallas). To exact revenge on her step-daughter Snow, the Evil Queen Regina (Lana Parrilla) cast the Dark Curse. It swept up all the residents of the Enchanted Forest, stripped them of their identities, and deposited them in our world. But then, Henry Mills (Jared Gilmore) found Emma — his biological mother — and brought her to Storybrooke. As the destined Savior, she broke the curse. However, that allowed Mr. Gold aka Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) to bring magic to town. Because magic always comes with a price, Emma’s mission is not over. The series also stars Emilie de Ravin, Colin O’Donoghue, and Rebecca Mader.

Telly’s Take
Despite declining ratings, it looked like Once Upon a Time would be renewed for a final seventh season. Now, star Jennifer Morrison has committed to appearing in only one more episode if the show is renewed. Can the show continue without one of its core characters (ala ABC’s plan for season nine of Castle)? I don’t think so and suspect that Once Upon a Time will end with season six.
5/11 update: ABC has renewed Once Upon a Time for a seventh season. Details here.

Please go not cancel Once Upkn a Ztims! I live this show. Something that actually children can watch without a lot of curving or sex innuendos.
When I found out that once upon a time was cancelled it made me really sad and angry. Once upon a time was the first actual show that I really liked. Please bring season 7 back please.
Nothing would ever be like once upon time , they brought life to all classical stories.. and if they stopped, they would kill the reality and hope we gained through all those season.. so although I do care if Jennifer Morrison left the show.. and would feel depressed, but stories and characters and Regena.. still there .. and that’s what it means.. Once upon a time there was a hero called Emma…
its much better than saying, once upon time, there was a series called once upon a time…
Please do not stop series. I love ‘once upon a time’ there is hardly anything decent that I watch. I would be deeply upset if you decided to stop.the series. In this world of so much trouble this is the first grown up fairy tale that takes you away. For a little while.
I want allllllll the seasons, please don’t stop!

Once upon a time has been a show that I relate to in my life and love so much! I love everything about the show, the characters, the romance, the stories and unexpected twists in the tales. I’d want the show to live on for hundreds of years. I know that isn’t likely but I’d love to have an ending that really leaves you with sense of clarity or happiness! This show has gotten me through so much and if anything I’d love to have it my life for a while longer. The story of Henry is the one that… Read more »
I hope that Once Upon A Time will continue on for several more seasons either with or without Jennifer Morrison. Although I personally will miss her character if she does not continue on. But she must have good reasons for considering moving on in her career. There are too few family shows on television these days. This show is a great show for the whole family and I would like to see it continue. We have enjoyed every episode. “The Song in Your Heart” episode was especially fun to watch. I was thrilled to see them add a musical episode… Read more »
