| The Wizard of Oz | comment |
The Wizard Of Oz was a 1990s cartoon series produced by DiC Entertainment. Released around the 50th anniversary of the MGM movie, it was based on the movie as opposed to the books by L. Frank Baum. The series aired on ABC from September to December, 1990, with a total of 13 episodes, and did not get an ending before concluding.Dorothy is summoned back to Oz by the Ruby Slippers because the Wicked Witch of the West has returned to life, brought back by her winged monkeys. The Witch wastes no time in seeking vengeance on those who defeated her. She steals the Scarecrow's diploma, the Tin Man's clock heart, and the Lion's medal of courage, sends the Wizard away in his balloon, then takes over the Emerald City. And, of course, she wants the Ruby Slippers most of all.While the Emerald City is rescued in the two-part pilot, the Witch is still around. Dorothy and friends learn from Glinda that if the Wizard is returned to the Emerald City, they can defeat the Witch. The four friends travel across Oz to bring the Wizard back and defeat the Wicked Witch once and for all, meeting many characters along the way. | |

Canon Foreigner: The Wicked West Wind and Truckle the winged monkey are two in the main cast. Otherwise, almost everyone they meet in the episodes is an original character. | |

Dream Weaver: "Dream A Little Dream" had the cast entering the Lion's dreams to wake him up before he fell asleep forever thanks to magic. He could change the nature and details of the dream, but had to deal with the Wicked Witch trying to turn his dream into a nightmare. | |

Loose Canon | |
| The Wizard of Oz / int_4378c556 | comment |
Loose Canon: The cartoon is clearly meant to act as a sequel to the 1939 movie, given the appearances and vocalizations of the main cast; but Oz there was All Just a Dream. Compared to the books where Oz was most certainly real like in the cartoon. | |
