Rather than being distantly related to ''Once Upon a Time'', it has a SharedUniverse. Given that ''Wonderland'' stars a protagonist from Victorian England (Alice), whereas Storybrooke has a protagonist from modern-day [[BigAppleSauce NewYork]], it was up in the air how connected the two series would be.
