- Quotes
DG: I'm DG. This is...
Cain: I know, a head-case.
Glitch: I have a proper name... and when I remember it I will tell you.
DG: What's a head-case?
Cain: It's what the state does to re-educate criminals. Remove their brains, and keep them trapped inside their own heads. Ain't that right, convict?
Glitch: Whoa, I ain't no convict!
[hesitates]
Glitch: And just in case I am, it was a bogus charge, a frame job, I'm sure of it!
- Crazy creditsThis may only apply to the extended credits on the DVD release: the character name Dorothy Gale is misspelled "Dorthy".
- Alternate versionsIn the DVD edition, released March 11, 2008, the opening title card and credits are only shown on the first episode. Similarily, the first and second episodes do not contain end credits. As a result, the opening titles on the first episode and the end credits on the third episode have been extended and expanded to cover the entire series.

Featured review
This show was fairly imaginative. Everything seemed ripe for a great story but it never became very engaging. The characters and some of the visuals were imaginatively conceived, but I never felt compelled to keep watching.
Basically, this a loosely re-conceived version of the Wizard of Oz. It's modern day and each main character different, yet has something in common with their original Oz counterpart. It's sufficiently different that it's hard to predict what's going to happen next.
The characters are visually appealing to watch, but dialog is a bit lacking and the story even more so. In the three parts of the movie, only twice did it pick up in interest level - near the end of part 1 and near the end of part 3. The rest of the show was just kind of flat.
I can't really recommend watching the show - but some of the previews and snapshots that focus on the visuals may make it hard to resist.
