What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, Emerald City is the tale of a young woman named Dorothy Gale (Adria Arjona). She finds her true strength and identity as she battles to bring a divided world together. An all-powerful ruler called the Wizard (Vincent D’Onofrio) governs over one kingdom. He has outlawed magic and faces a looming disaster brought on by a mythical force — as well as the wrath of a growing cauldron of witches. The rest of the cast includes Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Ana Ularu, Mido Hamada, Gerran Howell, Jordan Loughran, and Joely Richardson.
Season One Ratings
The first season of Emerald City on NBC averaged a 0.72 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.02 million viewers. Compare its standing against the other NBC TV shows we are tracking. This fantasy series has been on a rocky road. It was supposed to film in 2014 and air in 2015 but NBC cancelled production due to creative differences. The network reversed that decision in April 2015 and hired a new showrunner. The series didn’t premiere until January 2017 and was given a Friday night timeslot. That leads me to think they may not have much faith in the series. The ratings have been quite poor, even for a Friday night show. Unless something magical happens to lift the ratings, I believe the Emerald City series is doomed to be cancelled. Sorry, Dorothy. 5/5 update: Emerald City has been cancelled by NBC. There will be no second season. Details here.

What do you think? Do you think the Emerald City TV show should have been renewed for a second season? How do you feel about NBC’s cancelling this TV series?
Please bring it back for another season!! You can not leave it hanging like this…with no true finale.
Renew Emerald City and show season 2 ASAP! I absolutely love this take on OZ. It’s the best version of the classic I have ever seen. I love the way it keeps you guessing about what will happen next. This is the wizard of oz on steroids. I wished they had shown that Dorothy still had magic when she was returned home and I hope she gets to take some really good tech. back with her when she returns to Emerald City to fight the beast forever. Imagine if she could bring a rocket Launcher and a couple of fully… Read more »
Emerald City is such a great Show! The actors fit each character to a TV! The story was told in a good time line. We want more. The season finale was told with such irony and this show has to be renewed. Wonderful content that’s so different what’s viewing on TV right now. I do not watch much TV, but I am hooked on Emerald City!
Great show, really. Classical fantasy story with a twist and conflicts that are not dragged on and on until they’re dead and rotting, no excessive tits&gore nonsense, great cast, absolutely fabulous visuals, great use of settings (is it Gaudi architecture I’m seeing there?). Unfortunately, no huge chance for renewal. After all, nowadays many decent shows get cancelled while things like the Walking Dead or Supernatural or Scandal go on and on and on and on and on with the same and the same and the same and into eternity. And get spin-offs. But one still can dream, right? If not,… Read more »
If Emerald City is cancelled I will only watch NBC for NBA NFL OR MLB Playoffs.Period.Why don’t they poll Facebook and twitter to see who’s watching what and kick Nielsen to the curb? I just found out this program demographic does not include me or anyone before 18-49 of age. I was born 03-01-53.Most of us stay home on Friday or most of our friends do and we watch TV including Grimm even after it went off track.Take a hint from G.O.T.,don’t be afraid to kill off characters and start with Lucas on E-City.
I love Emerald City! This is in my opinion the best new show of 2017! I’m going to be really angry if NBC cancels this show with that cliffhanger ending.
I love Emerald City! They bought a whole new twist on the wizard of oz. Dorothy is fearless. All the characters are amazing. The world of emerald city and all of oz are so breathtaking. It made OZ more not like the classic. This show is amazing. Please renewed it!!!!!!
Best show on tv please renew..
I love it
Just watched the season finale and I sure hope they have a season 2. I loved it! I mean just how many police and lawyer shows do the networks think we need to watch weekly? We need variety and Emerald City filled that slot.
Please renew!!! This is my favorite must see TV. I’m on pins and needles for the next episode. Or…Is it possible to make it available on Netflix or by purchase. I want to see where this story is headed!
Please don’t cancel this show is awesome needs to continue season 2 don’t cancel
Pretty please renew, bring back Dorothy, Lucus, and Toto! Great show…. Renew renew renew

It should only be renewed! My family absolutely loves his show. Such a thriller that keeps the audience on edge! Please DO NOT cancel
Renew!!! Please! Only show I have watched religiously in ages.
