There have been many successful projects based on the Land of Oz book series by L. Frank Baum. There’s also been a number of flops. Now, NBC is trying a television series called Emerald City. Will it be another hit or a disappointment? Will the Emerald City TV show be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
A fantasy drama, 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.

Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Lucas/Roan) & Ana Ularu (West) are absolutely brilliant in this fantastic tale of The Wizard of Oz!!! Cohen & Ularu bring such depth and awareness to their characters while bringing the audience to the edge of their seats anticipating what will happen next! Adria Arjona (Dorothy) continues to prove her character has the strength to conquer the daily obstacles as she strives to return home to Lucas, KS. Joely Richardson (North) is extremely believable in this character as well as enjoyable. Joely is the only actor we knew of prior to Emerald City. We’re so happy to have… Read more »
Yes please renew Emerald City. Love the twist on this show.
It’s a great show and needs a chance to blossom! Renew Emerald City!!!
THIS SHOW IS AWESOME
I just binged the Emerald City series and I LOVED IT! It got progressively better as the series went on. I hope it gets picked up for another season.
I like the show its entertaining and who doesn’t love the Wizard of Oz. Give it a chance.
One of the best new TV shows, I really love it! The scenery and the costumes are amazing and that they didn’t give in to the love triangle cliché. So sad I can’t watch on TV to support it, I’m from Europe. 🙁
Love the characters, plot and cinematography. Please give it another year to find its audience! It’s so good!
Love it! Please renew!
I really enjoy this show I really hope that it is renewed. There are not many TV shows that don’t have too much nudity , sex or sexual content .
The family really enjoys watching the show and would love to see a 2nd season!
Please save this show! It’s so imaginative and different from the rest of the usual TV fare.
Absolutely love this show, please renew emerald city.
Another vote for renewal.
Renew! We need more fantasy series, and I don’t think they can resolve the new problem with Roquat escaping in the finale. (Roquat is the major villain in the third Oz book)
