Should NBC return to the Land of Oz? The network’s freshman series Emerald City just ended its first season on March 3rd, but should it be renewed for second two?
Based on the books by L. Frank Baum, the Emerald City fantasy drama follows Dorothy Gale (Adria Arjona), a young woman who is transported from Kansas to a mystical and mysterious land called “Oz.” The cast also includes Vincent D’Onofrio, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Ana Ularu, Mido Hamada, Gerran Howell, Jordan Loughran, and Joely Richardson.
Season one of Emerald City debuted on January 6th to low ratings, earning a 1.00 rating in the 18-49 demo and 4.485 million viewers. From there, the numbers declined further. It would seem that viewer interest was waning. The show’s first season only managed to average a 0.72 rating in the 18-49 demo and 3.02 million viewers — making it the lowest-rated new series on NBC.
What do you think? Should NBC return to Emerald City for a second season or should it be cancelled? Would you watch season two?
Yes, I think the show is great.
Needs season two to give it a proper ending.
An idea filled with such potential and yet remarkably poorly executed. Some of the most cringe-worthy acting I’ve witnessed in quite some time. Most of the subplots were shallow and dull. Ranks about on par with Under the Dome. At least UtD was bad in a way that made it a comedy. No such luck with Oz.
I recorded work comes early 4am but watched as soon as got off. Never missed a episode. Can’t wait for return of Emerald City. Plllleeeeaaaasssse3eeeee keep Emerald City
i thought it quite a refreshing version of the classic. imaginative creative great cast bring it back change the lineup
I love this show and I do hope they bring it back . I can’t wait:)
Really hoping for season 2
Love it , really, really want tot see it continue….
I enjoyed all the episodes I hope there is a season 2. It’s an interesting spin on an old classic I think the fan base will increase.
I loved the show…creative and true to OZ
Absolutely we’d watch another season of Emerald City!!! We loved the fun re-telling of the original story and the originality. Great acting and beautiful sets and costumes. Please renew for a second season. We especially loved the Friday night time slot. So often there’s NOTHING on Friday nights, this is the perfect end of a week show.
This is one of the best adaptation s of Baum’s OZ I have ever watched. It would be criminal to not complete the tale.
yes i would I watched every episode it is a good show I always liked the movie wizard of Oz have seen it 20 times or more since was a little girl hope you bring it back
yes i would watch 2nd series
LOVE this show and all the characters – great casting
