Hey there!

I've been watching some OZ episodes lately, whenever I stumbled upon an half-completed episode, and I'm always dumb-struck how freakin' good this show is. From the superb acting to the crushing and violent storylines and dialogues, I've never been bored watching those.

So I'm thinking about buying the box sets but I wanna know, from those who love the show, is it really THAT good? Are all the episodes on the same level of 'greatness'? Because the box sets are quite expensive.

Anyhoo, thanks in advance!

PS- This is coming from a guy who got bored of '24' during the beginning of the third season.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There was one story arc involving a, I shit you not, aging pill as a possible substitute for long term incarceration. Cyrill ages a lot, it last about two weeks, and then they drop the subject, Cyrill is back to normal, and they all act like that story arc never even happened. Other than that, it's top quality all the way through.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Really? Shit, that's weird. O_o

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Deadwood is way, way better than Oz.

Though season 2 is kinda spotty

Yea, it was the strangest thing I'd ever seen. It was just out of nowhere, and they ran with it... and suddenly it was just gone, and they ignored it. Which was nice, because it was fucking awful... however, the boxsets are worth it, mate. Hours of entertainment.

Edit:

Of course Deadwood is better than Oz. But Oz is still awesome, you git. *shakes a fist*

Also, season 2 has the Swearengen / Bulloch fight. What more do you need?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Thats the problem with Season 2 - theres too much going on.

Sadly, HBO said that theres probably not going to be a Season 4 of Deadwood

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I read that, and I got right choked. I mean... come on, the series was amazing. I can listen to that theme song all day. Besides which, Wild Bill was just so well done. Best. Death. Ever.

FELIPE NO

I love Oz. I watch it wheneverI happen to stumble upon it. I wish that I could find a torrent for the series.

How ya doing, buddy?

This is a series I plan to buy on DVD one day. The only reason I haven't done so yet is because, like all of HBO's shows, it's freaking expensive (the MSRP is $65, but the lowest I've seen it for is $50, which is still expensive for only eight episodes).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Little known fact is that Jack Bauer actually put 94% of the inmates from Oz in prison.

Just wait to see what he does to the guys from Prison Break...

No wonder he's that good! John McLane trained him.
