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.

I have watched OUAT since s1 E1 and love this show. I would be disappointed if it gets cancelled. The show has so many stories still to tell
Please don’t cancel OUAT! Been a fan since the beginning and have never missed a show, however I believe family ratings dropped after you all made Red and Dorthy gay, my opinion. A lot of angry viewers….other than that, I’m loving the rest of this season! Please, please listen to fans for ideas. I hope Snow Davis and Henry stay as well as everyone else. Loving Gideon! Need more Rumple and how he used to be instead of making all of them go soft hearted. Maybe showing the Enchanted Forest and the evil / soft hearted queen ruling over again…I… Read more »
