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]
What do you think? Do you like the Emerald City TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for season two on NBC?
My husband & I look forward to this show above all our other favorites of the week. I will be so disappointed if another one of our favorite shows gets cancelled!!
cant see this show moving forward much.mini series status,not much more
Love love this show
Please NBC pick up for another season
Awesome TV show!!!! Please please please pick up for another season! ❤❤❤
To be honest, I did not like the show in the beginning. However, I did not give up on it like some viewers would. I gave it a chance and I am glad I did. I have really enjoyed the story line, characters, and the life it seemed to take on all on its own. NBC, you have great shows like the Chicago series (Fire, P.D., Med, and Justice; Blindspot, and The Night Shift) so please renew Emerald City for a second season and keep this show alive with all the great shows you already have.
Awesome show! All the dark drama and intrigue of Game of Thrones without the language and nudity. Great characters. Amazing costumes, makeup and sets. Please renew, NBC.
One of the best Series this year!
Love this show! I was not hooked on episode 1, but by 3 I was hooked. I watched episodes 3-current all last night.
I love this show. I realize that it can be a little dark and the absolute opposite of whimsical, but at the same time it really takes you to a beautiful, fantastic place
I love this show!! Wonderful complex characters. Season 2 please!
Emerald City is not over. I cannot wait for a second season!
I felt the show started off slow, but picked up and now it’s a must see for my household. I’m holding my breath hoping to give the show air least one more season- a chance!
Interesting show with so much potential. Hope they give it another season to develop the characters
Interesting show… waiting to see where they take the characters…hope they give it another season!
I absolutely love the emerald city, I hope it continues a few more seasons.
