The Wiz: Reloaded


The much hyped Wizard of Oz remake finally made its way to the boobtube last night featuring creepy ass flying monkeys, along with creepy but lovable Deschanel, portraying a post-modern Dorothy a.k.a DG. The series manages to suck you in, despite the pitiful performances, and the obvious CG effects. The forces behind the projects clearly didn't think the original plot was thick enough, with their added family secret drama, and DG's undiscovered superpowers that go beyond glittery mary janes. It may all seem a bit absurd, but we can't wait to see what happens next. We're currently taking bets on who's ass is getting beat down, in the inevitable kung fu style show down between the DG and the witch (who also happens to be DG's power hungry bitch of a sister.) Have no fear if you missed the first episode, as Sci-fi will not fail to rerun the episode all through tonight, and into a little bit of tomorrow morning. By the way where the fuck did Toto go?
