Summary: part of a whole
Comment: I had never seen the series, so I bought all seasons. The writing, acting and directing were the best of almost anything I've ever watched.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Oz - This Is One Yellow Brick Road You Won't Want to Travel On
Comment: Emerald City is supposed to be some sort of experiment in rehabilitating inmates of Oz Penitentiary. It doesn't seem to work very well. The death rate in this prison is higher than it ever could be in real life. People get out only to come back in. Of course, if they left, they'd be off the show too and we wouldn't want that! This show is raucous, crazy ride with plenty of violence and nudity and people who barely make sense. It is the lower depths of human existence. Everybody seems to be having fun as actors though. Variety features singing and dancing. There are always fight scenes. Wild and crazy stuff to do. Many of the show's actors have gone on to other shows now, namely Lost and Dexter. The show had a wealth of talent.

Summary: Happy/Good Price
Comment: I am very happy about the price I paid for three boxes of OZ, but I must admit I will not order on Amazon US again.Why?
- 5 weeks for the delivery (I didn't choose the cheapest shippment) but fortunately I am very patient!
- 15 euros for the customs duty! Waoow what a pain in the a....
Thanks anyway.

Summary: Oz, Fifth Season
Comment: Oz keeps getting better and better, and this season is utterly fantastic. Worth every cent.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Prisoners are losing their body parts in violence.
Comment: Mature Adults Only! Contains full frontal male nudity, violence, foul language. Shown in standard format. Broadcast in 2002.
Finally, the long awaited DVD set of the HBO prison drama "OZ"--Season 5 is here and man what a cliff-hanger Season 4 left us with.
Due to the gas explosion, the Emerald City had to be rebuilt. The new facility is modern and spanking brand new. With a little spit and polish it will be like home again.
It's the Grand Opening and the prisoners of the Oswald Correctional Facility are assigned back into their new digs.
It doesn't take too long before the fights start again. The rage between the prisoners continue. Some of the prisoners are about to loose the last bit of hope they have left.
OZ decides to experiment with allowing a prisoner to have a guide dog in its cell. A Prisoner's mother (Betty Buckley) comes aboard to teach the prisoners how to sing. Rumor is someone wants to rape her.
Prisoner James Robson (R.E. Rodgers) has receeding gums and requests the gum tissue of a cadaver instead of the painful way of using his own skin, however what race did the gum tissue come from?
Prisoner Rebadow (George Morforgen) asks Guard Brass (Blake Robbins) to buy him a lottery ticket with the numbers. Bob won the lottery, but the guard is keeping the ticket and millions for himself. he disappeared. Bob wants to settle the matter honestly.
A prisoner we have known for 5 years is killed.
In the episode, "Variety", Rita Moreno sings and other cast members too. In episode "Impotence", Prisoner Robson has a penis gland bit off, to see the effects, you will have to freeze-frame the DVD.
