It's A&E. Zero thought is going to go into this. If they're moving the Cursed personas to Seattle, then I'm guessing it will be more modern-day. I don't see how they can have the budget to build a bunch of new sets or do location shoots in the core of the city, though. Steveston was more out of the way so it was easier to film there. If this is more in-studio, anything goes. Maybe they will have Adult Henry frequenting an 80s-era diner so they can make slight alterations to Granny's. 2 Link to comment

I'm surprised they aren't taking advantage of these opportunities to get people interested in what's to come (and also to allay fears about "ruining" the CS story and other happy endings). But then A&E are not known for their promotional prowess. They can't promote something they haven't even planed. What are they going to say? It's Regina, Rumple and Hook doing things. Or se are showing the greatest love story ever between Henry and a nameless and faceless female character. 2 Link to comment

I think it was pretty obvious that couldn't possibly true just based on the setup. You'd have to know why Captain Hook is a good guy and how he's Henry's stepfather (unless they have him lose the hook and just be Killian, with no pirate flashbacks -- but somehow I doubt they'll be able to resist), how Rumple is Henry's grandfather, how the Evil Queen is now good and how she's Henry's mother but also his step-grandmother (unless they're going to skip the whole Evil Queen thing and just have Regina being Regina -- but somehow I doubt they'll be able to resist), probably how Henry is the Author, given the storybook in the flashforwards. These characters, their current situation and their relationships all require prior knowledge to understand. Link to comment

KAOS Agent June 12, 2017 Share June 12, 2017 They start filming in less than a month. They damn well better have some idea of what's going to happen. The actors need their first scripts in a couple of weeks so that they can start learning their lines. It's really stupid for them not to come up with some sort of positive promotional teases to get the fanbase excited and out there talking about the show. This season sounds like a total train wreck. I'm tempted to watch it just to see how bad it gets, but I don't want to ruin the final remnants of love I had for this show. Still on the fence about it all. I haven't even managed to watch the finale yet. 2 Link to comment
KingOfHearts June 12, 2017 Share June 12, 2017 (edited) There's only two questions that need to be answered in S7. "How is that girl Henry's daughter?" and "How are they going to write Emma out?" There's nothing to get hyped about so far. No major franchise. No big cliffhanger we care about. We don't even know who the Big Bad is. I guess we're getting more "strong" female characters to fill in before Rumple saves the day. Edited June 12, 2017 by KingOfHearts 4 Link to comment

I don't see any upside in promoting anything before they absolutely have to. They are dealing with a scenario where all the most popular cannon and non cannon couples are kaput. And only online fandom is watching/listening to them right now. They basically have an audience of two types, those who are fans of Regina and Rumpel more so than any of their pairings who will give season 7 a shot and those who are disgruntled and assuming the worst. The latter is on the fence or already gone; and I think that they are more likely to watch the premiere the less they hear about it beforehand because what can they present that is positive beforehand.

Even during the hiatus between 5 and 6, where I felt a lack of enthusiasm more than any time before that, it was nothing compared to now. I've seen NOTHING about season 7 on Tumblr or Twitter other than 'Please don't destroy CS or kill Emma!' posts. Even the cast convention posts are pretty lacklustre since there's nothing exciting to talk about. After every finale, there are usually people making theories and getting excited or even people having arguments but not now - maybe SDCC will change that (are they going to that?) but I doubt it. Hell it's the same on this board! I think lots of people decided the season 6 finale was the end and moved on and if they are going to check out season 7, it will be more casual watching. 5 Link to comment

I've wondered if maybe Lucy is the daughter of an alt Henry, like maybe Wishverse Henry, but comes to our Henry for help. Or maybe she's from the future. I'm still trying to figure out how Henry has lost all belief and hope or whatever. Given what he's been through and seen, there's no way they can make it at all believable that he'd be as skeptical as season one Emma, unless he's been drinking a lot of memory tea. At that point in the story, Emma had grown up in our world and had no reason to believe in magic or accept that fairy tales were real and that she was part of the story. At this point in the story, Henry knows his grandparents are Snow White and Prince Charming, his adoptive mom was the Evil Queen (but she got better), and his stepdad is Captain Hook. He's been to Neverland, Camelot, and the Underworld. A random kid shows up, says he's her dad and his family needs help, he should know to just go with it. Besides, he experienced that from the other side with Emma, so he's kind of a hypocritical jerk if he tries to do the "yeah, sure, right, kid" routine instead of "okay, we'd better look into this." I also don't see how Henry could be separated from his family and it count as Emma's happy ending not being ruined. I mean, we might think she'd be better off if he took a hike and she didn't have to deal with him, but I don't think she'd see it that way. Unless maybe this Henry is the alt Henry, and he's not the future of our Henry. I have to day, I'm not exactly enthralled with any of this. Usually between seasons, I find myself writing mental fanfic scenarios about what could happen and how it will work out (usually, mine end up being more interesting than what ends up airing -- like I had Regina secretly sliding into evil over Marian in season 4 and it taking a lot more time and effort to find Emma at the beginning of season 5), but I can't really get excited about any possible scenarios for next season. I've been spending a lot less time on mental fanfic about this show, and when I do, it's total alternate reality stuff, going back a few seasons and fixing it entirely or else coming up with something that skips the "future" part of the finale and just carries on with the way I would have written the final season of the show. 4 Link to comment

CCTC June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 It would not completely shock me if about half way through the year it was announced as the final season and a few of the originals come back to wrap it up and have another happy ending, since their last happy ending was probably trashed by the reboot, as they series signs off for good. 6 Link to comment
KingOfHearts June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 Are even getting the same Hook, Regina, and Rumple? I'd be down if they were all the Wish versions, as long as Hook got aged down or something. They could maybe bring Wish!Robin back as well as a feeble attempt to generate hype. 2 Link to comment
Shanna Marie June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 From the reports of what Robert C. said at a convention: Quote He said that Rumple’s relationship with both Regina and Hook will be different. That it’s entirely new. So the war between Rumple and Hook is over. It's sounding like these aren't going to be our versions of the characters, which means either they're under a curse with different identities or are alt universe versions, whether from the wishverse or elsewhere. What do you bet that any redemption they went through in the first six seasons will be gone and they're reset to being villains? They love writing the evil versions and think good guys are boring, and besides, they'll probably be repeating Emma's plot with Henry, so Henry will be influencing them to change. And then we'll repeat the previous character arcs. 1 Link to comment
maryle June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 Really doubtful that bringing Sean back will be enough to create hype they already tried it in 6b.

I know people want to believe that Emma et al got their Happily Ever After, but let's be real... their "Happy Beginnings" as seen in the Very Special Montage will last as long as Emma's wedding reception. Henry will be miserable, Regina/Hook/Rumple will be Cursed, and Emma/Snowing will have met some unknown horrible fate, but don't worry, Lucy will remind you to HOPE.

The linked tweets weren't there by the time I got to the link, and now I've realized that I need clarification because I can't tell the difference between what they actually write for the show and are very proud of and what we write to satirize the terrible writing on this show. Were these actual script teases, or was this a joke about the elements we can pretty much count on being in the show because they can't seem to help themselves and think that being repetitive is clever writing? Quote REGINA: Emma, that's not how you use that. If these are real, my guess is that it will have something to do with taking after a baby, since that's something Emma has no experience with (assuming they forget that Emma should still have fake memories of raising Henry herself, as they never indicated that she lost all those memories after the memory spell was broken, and may even have fake memories of raising Henry herself as a princess in the Enchanted Forest) but that Regina did, since Regina is Supermom who nobly and heroically raised the baby Emma rejected. And Emma having a baby to look after provides an excuse for why she can't go on whatever adventure and therefore won't be in the rest of the season. Not that this stopped her parents. 1 Link to comment

It would once again be following their "formula". Basically, they would have been writing Season 1 again, except with character changes and minor tweaks.
