Oz

anyone into this show, borrowed Season 1, 2 and 3 off a buddy of mine and I gotta say it is one awesome show. As soon as you start to think a character actually isn't that bad they do something so inhuman that you are just blown away and that is the thing that I love about the show it is so twisted.

a lil to much sausage in it though lol.

Exactly. this was one of the first HBO series. I really enjoyed it but you are right, they show Mr. Winkie a bit to much.

All the alliances and backstabbing. It's like watching Survivor but they actualy kill the fucks that fuck with them.

The first seasons are great. Some of HBO's best stuff. Then it goes a bit downhill. The writers couldn't really find anything new. It's the only show I enjoyed I'm glad they cancelled.
In my secret dreams, Vic McKey and his entire team would get busted and end up in Oz. That would make a good show.
I feel like talking to a psychoanalyst now.

Oz frequently punishes the audience but it is a mighty fine show. If the seasons of DVDs ever hit the cheap cheap 19.99 rate that I'm seeing from time to time (West Wing 1, 2, Nip Tuck 1, etc) they will be mine.

The only thing I really don't like is when they have O'Reillys brother on, makes me feel terrible cause he doesn't understand the things going on because of his brain damage its like watching a 5 year old being abused in the most terrible ways and having 0 way of getting out of it.

Oz was one of the top 3 HBO series they've ever had, truly awesome show.

Was a great show, but the last couple seasons kinda sucked. Cant say much more without spoilers.

His brother has his own little shining moments in the series though. Oz was the first HBO show I really got into, and that led to the Sopranos and so on... it was like the start of what has become home to the best shows on TV.
