Jasmine Season 2 Episode 22

Send us a text

The yellow brick road is looking a little worse for wear in this entry of Oz Month, where Jas must finally tackle the infamous flop that traumatized even the hardy Gen X kids, Return to Oz...but is it really as awful as its reputation, or is this a hidden gem of whimsigoth goodness that deserves more love? Join Jas with Return to Oz superfan Charley, just Oz in general superfan Bex, and of course a couple of delightful nerds named River and Leif as we discuss whether or not this movie should be shown to children, how it captures the tone if not the letter of the original novels, and the multiple trans icons in this story!
