‘Once Upon a Time’ Series Finale Date Set at ABC

This is it. It’s all coming to an end for Once Upon a Time. ABC has officially set the date for the final episode of the long-running fantasy series.

On Thursday, ABC announced the season finale dates for many of its currently in-season shows, which was fitting considering the network’s highly-celebrated drama series Scandal is ending one week from tonight. Of these dates, ABC listed Once Upon a Time as ending on Friday, May 18. The episode will be followed by the Season 5 finale of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD.

Early this year, the network broke the hearts of fans by announcing that Once Upon a Time would be coming to an end this season. Following a soft reboot this fall, and a shift to Friday nights, many believed that the show wouldn’t last much longer.

Once Upon a Time is one of three shows that is known to be ending this spring on ABC. The aforementioned Scandal is airing its finale next week, concluding a seven year run on the network. Family sitcom The Middle is also coming to an end. The ninth season will come to a close with a double episode on Tuesday, May 22, following the season finale of Roseanne.
