"Once: Wonderland" announced as spinoff of Once Upon A Time

[Mrja84]

With Alice in the lead and in a pre-curse Wonderland. So I think some characters will cross over, but unless it is time travel no current story lines will see our characters pushed there.

I'm so glad they didn't recast the Mad Hatter.

WHY DOES EVERYTHING NEED SPIN-OFFS?!!!! *cries*
Also, why did they recast Paul McGillion?

A spinoff already? Not sure about this, but hopefully it will work out.

[Girlbot]

Spin off = overkill

[rushy]

A TV series where Sebastian Stan as the Mad Hatter is a main character.
HELL YES.

It will be airing on Thursdays at 8 PM. I'll admitt that has me a little pessimistic as their timeslot has been a death slot for ABC for quite a while.

I really liked the trailer i'll be watching it

[majorsal]

i'm just not interested in this.

I am sure my wife and I will at least give this a shot.

Sounds like a much more indirect "spin-off" than many other shows as it is taking place with unrelated characters, in a different world and a different time period. I think the genre\format is serving ABC well so they created this show and added OUAT to attract viewers familiar with the current show.

Trailers I've seen so far look interesting, but honestly I don't have room for many new shows and there are a lot coming out this year I want to check out (surprisingly).

Honestly I'll be surprised if Wonderland lasts. Thursday at 8PM has been a death slot for ABC

I'll give it a chance, while I'm sitting around pouting about the lack of true science fiction on TV.

Agreed. Its a spin off in the lines of Frasier was of Cheers. Well more of an opposite actually.
Depending When its on depends if i give it a whirl.

This show does look interesting, i dont know how its gonna last more than one season with the storyline but i'm interested enough to find out i guess.....

Frasier was more of a Continuation of a perticuler cheers character, Once Wonderland is more like star trek how every show was quite different, i wouldnt be suprised if they come out with another once upon a time "spin off" down the track Maybe a Kingdom Hearts t.v show set in the once upon a time universe? that would be good i think maybe?

I think the question we have to ask ourselves is when is Mickey Mouse going to appear in Once Upon A Time?

However, the pilot will have Storybrooke in it. So how will the two timelines meld?

Saw the preview on FiOS Demand. Looks kinda lame to me.

Will Barbara Hershey be replaying her role of the Queen of Hearts, or did they just stick someone behind the mask?

It'll be Barbara.
