TV show description:
A fantasy drama, this TV series is based on the Land of Oz book series written by L. Frank Baum. It’s the tale of a young woman finding her true strength and identity as she battles to bring a divided world together.
While searching for her mother, 20-year-old Dorothy Gale (Adria Arjona) is swept up into the eye of a tornado and transported to a mystical world. It’s where an all-powerful ruler called the Wizard (Vincent D’Onofrio) governs over one kingdom, 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.
While on her path to find her way home, Dorothy comes upon a wounded soldier named Lucas (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) and a young man, Jack (Gerran Howell), who’s attempting to free his best friend Tip (Jordan Loughran) from a mysterious woman (Fiona Shaw).
Meanwhile, in Emerald City, Glinda (Joely Richardson) and West (Ana Ularu) come together to say farewell to their fallen sister, The Wicked Witch of the East (Florence Kasumba).
Elsewhere, the Wizard sends Eammon (Mido Hamada) on a mission to discover what fell from the sky and disturbed the Land of Oz.
Episode #10; “There’s No Place Like Home”
First aired: March 3, 2017. The battle arrives in Emerald City as sleeping giants arise. Tip and West (Ularu) arrive in Emerald City seeking vengeance. With a renewed confidence, Dorothy faces off against the Wizard and fights to save Oz from his oppressive reign. Meanwhile, Glinda brings her power to the battlefield as the threat of the Beast Forever looms. [Courtesy of NBC]

I so wish another channel would pick this up I really was enjoying!
You people don’t care about the people watching… All u care about is rating if u can’t continue give to a station that can carry on the good work
Why is it being cancelled??? Bring the show back at least give it to Netflix so they can make it better and I honestly don’t think it was made for actual T.V.
Please bring Emerald City back. It was such a great show. I was left on a major cliffhanger. I was soo happy for the next season and this happens! Why the torture?!
I really loved the show! Why cancel it especiallu when you left us on a major cliffhanger? I was soooooo pumped for the next season and then this happened, why? Please bring Emerald City back!!
Emerald City was a wonderful show. It had everything in it to captivate the entire family. If it was properly promoted and put into a Sunday family time slot it would do amazingly well. I can’t believe great shows like these are being cancelled and we are being left with filth and reality television. Such a frustrating time.
I loved the show, Emerald City. Since it is cancelled it seems the only type of show that people seem to like are the ‘REALITY SHOWS” which as far as I am concerned are a total waste of time and brain cells. I like to watch tv to be entertained. A little fantasy is a reality escape and enjoyable.
Please bring emerald city back! It was an amazing mix of drama, action, and romance! It was perfect!!!!!!
emerald city really good the best show I love it please return it back on
It was obviously way under promote it if they promoted it properly and did season two I know they would have a huge hit on their hands I’ve told a lot of people about it Who have watched the entire series after it premiered and were truly surprised to hear it had been canceled they all said they did not know anything about it until I told them about it It’s a big mistake not to make season two but this time promote it properly
Thoroughly enjoyed watching Emerald City. NBC you needed to promote it more than you did. Missed seeing it, caught it on internet. Please do another season and do more promotion for it. Want it back, please!!!!
Emerald City was such a beautiful retelling of the classic Wizard of Oz. I really hope NBC either reconsiders their decision to cancel the series or another network or Netflix or Hulu pick it up to at least give it a second season to tie it off.
Hulu please let it be Hulu.
I can’t believe that NBC would cancel this series but then again I can hardly believe they had the intelligence to produce one season. This was easily the best program NBC had on the air.
