    Hello!

    I’m a huge once upon a time fan. Next season let’s try to do princess tiana. I could play her or Keke Palmer could. I have no clue you will get this, but I think it would be another cool season.


  2. Hello
    i am also a great fan of these TV series. The plot is absolutely amazing. It never ceases to surprise me. Congrats to Kitsis and Horowitz.


  3. Hello,

    I really really love the show and the developments of all the characters. Thanks a lot to Kitsis and Horowitz for creating and to all the actors/actresses for the great job.
    Only one thing angers me: I also really enjoyed watching OUAT in Wonderland and I do not like the idea of a whole new Alice in season 7. I mean it could be the same Alice just played by another actress and the story happening before or after the story of OUAT in Wonderland. But a completely new story of that character would really make me and other fans sad.

    I am one of your fans and I don’t want you to cancel once upon a time. I love the show. Please consider my request. Once teaches me that you may face challenges but you will always have a happy ending. Even though you may not notice it.
