Who here is a fan of it?

I love that show. There are so many cool things about it. My favorite characters are Ryan O'Reily and Miguel Alvarez and Chris Keller and Simon Adebisi.

Right here. They have replayed it once since it originally ended in 2002. They just got to the end like a month ago. I wish they would replay it again but they aren't as of right now sad. I would like to buy the whole series on DVD.

Great show. Too bad its over.

Have the first 2 seasons on DVD.

Anything HBO has to offer is great. Except... Arliss. And I don't care for The Wire.

Not only was Oz AMAZINGLY kick-ass, it was incredibly original and just plain fuckin' awesome.

I was a fan of nearly all the characters, but especially O'Reilly, Adebisi, Alvarez, Keller, and Schillinger. I was really upset when the show ended, but at least I can re-watch the first 3 seasons on DVD and the rest of 'em on VHS. All seasons (except Season 4) lasted 8 episodes, but any of those seasons were better than 99% of any show on network TV that pulls out 22-24 eps per season.

Oz will forever remain one of my favorite TV shows of all time, and probably the ONLY non-Fox show (besides "The Shield", which is sorta Fox) to be on my personal list.

Ohh man I loved Oz. I was had this sense of realism that not that many shows do. It was raw, it was gritty, and it was awesome. Even the video quality was gritty which was bad ass. My favorite charecters were the O'Reileys, Alvarez(uber badass), Chucky Pancamo, Kareem Said, and of course Augustus Hill, the man who tied it all together. I was sad to see it go, especially since it was the only remaining show on HBO that I really liked. But at least I have seasons 1-3 on DVD, and my personal favoite "Oz: Behind These Walls" The Journal of Augustus Hill. I read it for the entire 6 hour flight I took this summer, and finished it the following day. I still want to get the Oz Prisoner's shirt they have for sale up at HBO's site, but I don't have the money to spend.

Wow, I just went to check on it cause you asked, and surprisingly enough it's not there anymore. Now I'm gonna see if I can find a pic of it if any are available on ebay. But it was a dark grey button down prisoner's shirt, with Oz written over the left breast, and Property of Oswald Corerrectional Facility on the back...I can't believe this, I can't find it anywhere, all that's available now are the CO training t-shirts on ebay and a simple black oz shirt at hbo.com. Everytime I see something cool and wait, I always end up missing out completly..I'm upset nowsad
