Ептыть... мне кажется, вансовщина реально дотянет до четвертого тысячелетия. Даже если никто не будет ее смотреть. Даже если кончится бюджет на пластмассовые пальмы. Даже если сюжет пойдет по третьему кругу уже со взрослой Люси. Даже если актеры разбегутся, и двадцать два раза в году сорок минут кряду будут показывать пустой экран.

In its rebooted seventh season, Once Upon a Time has been averaging 3.7 million total viewers and a 1.1 in the 18-49 demographic season to date. “The thing about Once Upon a Time is that the ratings have been a little bit lower on Friday than they were on Sunday, but our delayed viewing, which we were averaging a bump of about 55 percent, this year has been into triple digits, so the actual fanbase really hasn’t shifted very much,” Dungey says. “It’s more that they’ve been watching it more time-shifted since we’ve been on Friday.”

Dungey notes that a potential season 8 would also depend on the creative, which she has not yet heard. “Eddy [Kitsis] and Adam [Horowitz] are going to be coming in shortly to talk with us about what they would want to be doing if they had another season, so I can’t really say until we’ve had that conversation,” Dungey said.
