They mentioned Oz a lot in their last podcast! And in that not so subtly “Yeah we’re going to visit that story sooner or later but we’re going to talk around it for now to try and throw you off” kind of way. You don’t fool us Eddy and Adam!! 🙂
[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Thoughts regarding Dr. Frankie being the Wizard of Oz. There just does not seem to be any clues or connections leading us down that yellow brick road. Yes, we saw plenty of nods (Crystal ball/orb, rubbie slippers, Jefferson saying “Off we shall go to find him” (inferring the Wizard) as they walk down a long tiled walkway (yellow brick road). However, in my humble opinion, they were using all the OZ nods to throw everyone off track. It was only a ruse, a ploy, a red herring to keep us guessing whether he was Dr. Frankie or the Great Oz himself. OUAT was disappointed that the network let the cat out of the bag regarding Dr. Whale’s identity with the promos. Prior to this, the popular guess was the Wizard. Remember how they did the same thing with August’s identity? Kept giving us clues to both Bae and Pino. One was a red herring purposely put out there just as the Wizard of Oz was on Sunday. What further substantiates this is a look at the recent K&H podcast. How did they describe Dr. Whale? A good time kind of guy who likes to spend time with the ladies. How did they describe Dr. Frankie? A serious workaholic who is very discipline. Does this sound like the Wizard of Oz? I don’t think so as he was really a bumbling circus performer. We see Dr. Frankie drawing a flower in black & white though the flower itself is vibrant with colour. They said Dr. Frankie comes from a world without colour and titled the end of the script as such long ago. Could Dr. Frankie even see the flower’s colour? They also stated their favourite part of the episode was the end scene and they reveal where he is called Dr. Frankenstein. Note the key word “reveal” leading us to believe that we were to continue guessing between WofOz and Dr. Frankie, right up until the end. We see the the background, to this castle, dark dismal and gray, surrounding by eerie looking mountains. The castle, filled with dark electrical things, again all black & white, the only thing shining through is a red heart. Does this sound like the world of OZ? I don’t think so. We see his brother, the monster, come alive. We see his hand, ghoulish and gruesome looking, a patchwork of skin all stitched together, with long slimy fingers and horrid looking nails. Does this look like the Tin Woodman or Scarescrow from OZ? I don’t think so. Sounds more like a world from a 1930’s, black & white horror film. All in all, I just don’t see the connection. I see nods to OZ as we all know it will be coming up eventually, I see the red herring, but I don’t see Victor Frankenstein or his world filling the shoes of the Great and Powerful OZ or the Emerald City. If anyone can show me legitimate connections between the two, then please, by all means as I would love to hear them.

I totally agree with TheGoldenKey. I dont think he could be the wizard of Oz i think that may be something to reveal in season 3
