Was OZ a good show?

[Kanster]

Nah, man. Oz isn't better than either of those shows in all honesty. I mean, I'm not trying to say it's terrible or anything, but damn. Oz is one of those shows I thought was somewhat interesting when I saw it as a kid, but I've tried to watch the show again within the last couple years and I just found the shit to be ridiculous and unintentionally comical.

You also get the gas face for saying that shit is almost as good as The Wire.

Oz>>>>

Had a feeling you were gonna post that, lol.

Haha, yeah. It was definitely the obvious reply.

Sold! That will be my next series. The only thing is I love prison politic shows and documentaries. I've seen them all, and of OZ is too ridiculous, or unrealistic, I will be turned off. I'm going to watch though.

It had some characters. Entertaining show. Lots of man-rape. Could be a good or bad thing, depends on how much reality you're willing to deal with.

I've only watched the first four seasons as I heard the last two were pretty shit. The first 4 were fantastic though, pretty horrific at times yes but great TV.

You're missing out by not being able to get Breaking Bad, Walter White is a hero of mine:icon_lol:

 

[Caution]

Seasons 1-3 are great.

The rest are pretty hit and miss throughout.

OZ was a good show, some episodes were even great. Each episode had its own message which was cool. Over time however, especially in seasons 5 and 6, it became too surreal and just seemed weird. I liked it a lot, but not top 5 type material.

Behind Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, I think Oz is the greatest dramatic series ever, and certainly the best HBO series. Fantastic from the very first episode to the very last.

The characters were great. I think they could have done a little better but regardless it was a great show. Bot as others have said the last season just gets super-bizarre and the ending was anti-climactic.

 

[rocketskates]

One of the best shows I've ever seen. I had the luxury of borrowing all seasons from a friend and watching it straight through. Has some uncomfortable dude on dude scenes but I was able to get over it and enjoy the story lines. Plus it had a lot of guys who went on to become familiar faces in acting that were no names at the time. I hated to watch the last few episodes and see it end.

Gimme some tits!!!!!!

I loved OZ but agree with everyone else who said Season 5 went downhill - first 4 Seasons are class A with some real WTF moments and a fair bit of penis. You'll never look at the Law & Order guy the same EVER again but it's worth the watch.

 

[zapataxiv]

the first 3 or 4 seasons were great but i couldnt finish the series it jumped the shark and got way too ridiculous

 

[odog]

At first it was really good. By the end it was basically just gay porn.

 

[Kemo**]

If I were you, I'd only watch it if you can stretch it to full screen. I personally fucking hate watching shit with black bars.

 

[Magooglie]

Really good show. Though I stopped watching near the end.
