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?
Considering the time slot NBC gave this show and the weak promotion, not surprising the ratings were so low. This is an excellent show on many levels and deserves a chance to find its audience. A lot of people DVR this show and watch later (like I do). I think more people follow it than the ratings suggest. Give us a season 2!!
They did the same to Emerald City that they did to Grimm. It doesn’t seem right to me. It is almost like they set them up to fail.
YES! YES! YES! I absolutely would watch another amazing season of Emerald City! Great writers, wonderful twist on a classic story with truly outstanding actors!!
Yessss!!! Keep the story going!! It’s a great show.

From the sets to the story all was done so well. You don’t see this type of creative fantasy on prime time TV. I am so looking forward to Season 2.
