Emerald City Season Finale: PLEASE Don't Let "Emerald City" End Here!


What did we learn during the season finale of "Emerald City"? West and Ozma/Tip arrive in Emerald City along with their crew of witches. Ozma confronts Eamonne/Cowardly Lion. He confesses to murdering her parents. She wipes his family's memories of him and exiles Eamonne to live outside the city. That seems a bit harsh. Is Ozma going to rule by fear or respect? 



Jack/Tin Man and Jane head out to the battlefield. Jack almost kills the Wizard but he's spared when Frank declares to Jane that "your daughter is here". Wow, I didnt see that coming. Jane (and not Karen Chapman) is actually Dorothy's mother. 



Glinda attacks Frank's soldiers with her witches and BIG swam of locust. Sylvie begins to destroy one of the stone giants but is shot dead by Frank... cause he's a jerk. Dorothy retaliates and almost kills Frank but just then, all the witches are revived. Oh yeah, I forgot only a witch can kill a witch. Unfortunately Jack doesnt fare as well. He's chopped to bits by the Wizard's men. That was rough. Jack deserved better.  

The Wiz is eventually shot and killed by Jane... good riddance. Though I'm NOT sorry to see Frank go, I am surprised they killed him off. Anywho, Jane tells Dorothy she is her daughter. Jane promises Dorothy she will return to Kansas in the tornado with her but instead stays behind to activate the sequence. 



The shadow of a big winged thing flies over Emerald City. Uh oh... That can't be good. 



In Kansas, Dorothy awakes. Apparently only 10 minutes has passed. Karen is still alive but barely. Dorothy wonders if the whole thing was a dream. Just then Toto and Lucas appear. Lucas says "Your mother sent me. She's a prisoner of the Beast Forever .and only you can stop it. I've come to bring you home. There's a storm on the horizon. Fade to black. 

While many questions were answered during the finale, many more were raised: 
  • Is the guy with no skin in the Prison Of The Abject the true "Beast Forever"? He's got wings so I'm thinking "yep". Especially since some big winged thing has arrived in Emerald City. That would be an interesting twist. The whole time they were fighting over science vs magic, the true enemy was waiting in the background. 
  • The story of Langwidere (Queen Ev) was dropped after she was revealed to be a robot built by Jane. She and Jack need to get together and have robot babies. 
  • What happened to Tip's wanting to be a boy? Does he have to give up his self identity in order to rule Oz?
  • I thought Lucas/Roan would play a bigger part in the finale. We barely see him. Lucas and Dorothy need their happy ending. 
  • Where is Glinda and West's mother? I thought we might meet her after it was revealed she was "making" witches for Glinda.
  • Did Ojo survive? It seems his wife Nahara was a goner but did the guy without skin heal him? 
  • Will West and Glinda put their differences aside and finally get on the same team?

Favorite Quotes from "No Place Like Home": 
  • "We are not the Beast Forever, you fool!"- Glenda to the Wiz. 
  • "My mind is clear. My tongue is right. I will not let another of our kind die."- West to Glinda. 
  • Dorothy: "You've come to bring me back?" Lucas: "I've come to bring you home."

Grade: 5 Monsters (out of 5). Perfection. The acting, the writing, the cinematography, the costumes, the special effects are all superb. To hell with the critics! I just LOVE "Emerald City". In fact, it's one of my two most favorite new television shows of 2017 (along with "Travelers"). Will it get a season 2? I DESPERATELY want to see more of West, Ozma, Glinda Dorthy, and Lucas. Based on the low ratings, I fear the answer is "no". Perhaps it could find a more suitable home....maybe NexFlix?
