There were many characters on Once Upon a Time. While some never should have been introduced, it's a shame that others didn't stick around longer.

Great list and accurate.

I wondered if Maleficent was going to make another appearance after the episode Mother. It's been so long since I've watched OUAT and I never finished the series. Season 4B was so disappointing that I quit watching not long after. I remember they hyped up the queens of darkness and then dropped them after the third episode into the arc to focus more on the author story. It was such a let down. I guess I'm in the minority on Cruella. I like her character and felt they could have done so many things with her. I'm glad she comes back for the Hades arc in season 5B. I'm still debating if I want to watch season 7 in my rewatch. Majority of the cast is gone and the ones that stayed are playing different characters. It doesn't sound appealing.
