Was OZ a good show?

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. :P

:icon_lol:

Oz>>>>

You know it!
 
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.

watch atleast the first season its really good
 
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.

A guy gets shit in his mouth, direct from the source.

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:
 
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.
 
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.
 
the first 3 or 4 seasons were great but i couldnt finish the series it jumped the shark and got way too ridiculous
 
At first it was really good. By the end it was basically just gay porn.
 
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.
 
Really good show. Though I stopped watching near the end.
