OZ
 

Any fans of this tv series?I've always thought that it was top notch tv and recently i got a few series on ebay.Here's Mr Fit himself:

This is the show that makes me wish I had cable TV, but I just simply cannot bring myself to pay for television. I will be getting the DVDs for sure.

i loved it! have a lot fo them on dvd and tape. i remeber seeing the first episode and was hooked. much better than prison break.

did you ever see burried? it was on channel 4 a few years back. that was exellent.

I've seen only seen a few episodes of that and it was good.I'm a huge fan of prison dramas and OZ really beats them all.It's on par with The Sopranos in terms of acting and that is saying something.

When it was originally aired I watched it nearly every week for maybe the first two seasons. It got sort of stupid (like a lot of HBO series) a few seasons in. From what I remember it was good.

there were 6 series. it got crazy towards the end but still intensly wachable. poor old beecher.

take a virtual tour of em city! haha

Beecher was the one who ran over the old lady after binge drinking?

It also costs a fortune for HBO series on DVD.

It's one of those series I'd want on dvd.
Perhaps the best tv -series ever along with six feet under.

Towards the end the quality decreased slightly though, as more and more people just died.

OZ was awesome until a certain main character got killed and then it just became totally ridiculous. i didn't know you could get it on dvd in this country though.

The guy who sold me the series shipped from London.They are copies though,mind.That i know shops don't have it in the uk but you can easily buy it on the internet.

how much did it cost, if you don't mind me asking?

A tenner for each series as they are copies.

I have HBO but I've never seen "Oz", think it was just ending as I subscribed to it, not sure. Also there is now another cop drama currently on HBO that is supposed to really great but does not get as much print as "The Sopranos" or "Big Love", or "Deadwood" and that's "The Wire".

The second series of Nighty Night i bought on ebay for £3 when it wasnt even out yet.I do wonder if it is legal for them to sell copies on ebay?There seem to be a few people who do that.

This is superb too:

And let's not forget this,please:

my favorite tv seria....adebisi is may favorite guy in Oz

Whats the 'OZ' connection with the first show? It's not an American series posing as Australian, is it? Tell me about it!

Prisoner was good. That chick Prisoner and on the cover of that DVD was in a Silverchair filmclip.

because the cell block in the show was called Emerald City

Wasn't the prison named after Oswald something or another too?

oswald state penitentiary, or something?

Yes, I think that is it. Fictional, I assume. Set in New Jersey I think though.

Oz was a great show.....I don't think I've seen a rerun on HBO in a long time.

If you want top Aussie shows then check out: Kath and Kym, Seachange, John Safran http://www.johnsafran.com . To name a few.

amazing series.
series 6 was a bit shit though. its like the writer was confused and rushed and staying up all night on cheap speed and vodka trying to tie up loose ends that he'd developed for years over a few episodes.
after adabisi dies it wasnt the same. adabisi was hilarious, doing that dance with his headphones on while staring at someone with his hand down his pants. fantastic.

Kath and Kym i've become aqauinted with in the past year and it's ok but not all that.

You'd have to understand the humour to find it hilarous. Each there own.

It's the humor that i've found a bit lacking.Have you ever watched Muriel's Wedding?

You missed the humour. It's an Australian thing. It's not the jokes that make them funny. It's their mannerisms etc.

And yes, of course I have seen Muriels Wedding. Why do you ask?

the dvd'd in england cost about £30 on ebay and amazon.

Get good copies for a quick fix and then eventually go for the real deal.

yeah, love it, right good.

'Cause that's a brilliant film.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!you wasted the 8000th posts here instead of putting it to good use on the reserved thread....lame...ha ha,kidding.

It is a good. Have you seen the film Chopper?

Porkmarras, go to this site www.bluebottlekiss.com and download the song "Boredom You're Breaking My Heart". And tell me what you think. I'd like to know.

Yes i've seen chopper and i've liked that too Norma J.

Good good. Seen The Proposition yet?

Please tell me you're downloading the song I asked you to. I'd like you to hear it.
