It just keeps coming...

As a fan of Once Upon A Time I am quite frankly appalled at how this so called 'reboot' for season seven is being rolled out. I can now see there is very little regard for the fans' feelings at all. If you didn't know, it was released last night then Emilie Ravin (Belle) was also asked to leave/fired she wanted to continue. Now whilst I have no strong feelings about the character, many do & I find this so dis-respectful to the actor & her legions of fans. I digress, the person I feel the most sorry for in all this is Colin O'Donoghue, he is obligated by contract to carry on into this renewal, whatever his feelings may be & I imagine, they may be a little mixed too. Looking at social media there is outrage, I can dis-regard hyperbole but I am not a teenager & I am very annoyed, this is such bad form. I'm a person of principle & I just find this utterly ridiculous, Jennifer's departure should've been announced weeks ago & the other cast lumped together in a statement, not blindsiding the actors by releasing pertinent information without even giving them a heads up... Anyway, the signatures are climbing, with the announcement of season seven now, this petition has perhaps changed focus, there's so much of Killian's story still to be told & I will fight to get to see it. If Once season seven gets early cancellation, MAYBE if I get enough signatures, ABC might take notice of this, just to clarify, I'm not rooting for it to, I just see such limited scope in what we know of the current plan. Maybe I'm wrong, who knows? maybe this will be a prequel of sorts, in which case, this is what I wanted. I participate actively over on TV Line & there are lots of people suggesting a spinoff is a better idea, great minds obviously think alike. Please keep sharing this guys, after all... A person who refuses to fight for what they want, deserves what they get. Come find me on Twitter @OAJR I only post there about Once & the campaign I promise. Sam
