This is one of the reasons for its popularity, as the premise of the show is very predisposing to speculation and this has been very motivating to fans. As we said above, the producers know how to engage their audience and they have been very successful in gauging the wishes of their fans.
“Once Upon a Time” was based on an interesting premise from the beginning, and the show is not afraid to take risks with its storytelling and the portrayal of some of its characters. Because of this, we expect that we haven’t even seen the peak of its popularity yet.
Once the second half of season 5 starts unfolding, some things should start clearing up. There have been certain unknowns about the plot of the show that have been bothering fans for some time now, and the producers are doing a great job at keeping everyone at the edge of their seats.
The show is coming back to the screen in March, so that gives fans a few more months to discuss its possible new developments and how the story could work out in the long run. There are some popular theories right now and some of them could even turn out to be true.
