Oz- The complete Sixth Season Nov 07, 2009 This completed my set. I loved Oz! If you liked it when it was on HBO, then collect the entire set! You will certainly watch these over and over again.
Better Than I Remember Aug 09, 2009 I haven't watched Oz in awhile and when the last season aired, I was a bit underwhelmed. Now I was able to sit back and enjoy it more than before. Maybe because I didn't have to anticipate each episode and knew what was going to happen. I could stop worrying about that and enjoy what was there. Oz is a thoughtful though very violent show about about prisons in America. The men are subject to many abuses and given such long sentences, this life becomes the only thing they know. In season six, the last season, some prisoners who have died visit as ghosts and the body count gets higher than ever. The Macbeth sequence is very enjoyable and runs throughout the season. The running joke being that something bad, usually death happens to every person who is chosen to play Macbeth. Fun show and very thoughtful. It's easy to see how Lost used its island as in place of the prison and took many ideas from Oz. Even many actors from Oz have joined Lost over the years.
WARNING: Region 2 & 4 fans of HBO's "Deadwood" and "Oz". May 22, 2009 WARNING:
Customers from outside of North America considering whether they will buy the Region 1 versions or the Region 2 & 4 versions of HBO's "Deadwood" and "Oz" may be interested to know that the Region 2 & 4 versions of these series do not contain audio commentaries.
If audio commentaries are an important feature for any fans of the series then I recommend purchasing the Region 1 versions. I do not know if any other HBO TV series have suffered the same fate as these ones outside of Region 1. My only question is why? Why rip off consumers from other countries? It's not like audio commentaries take up a lot of disc space. Shame on HBO.
Bottom line:
As I enjoy audio commentaries I will buy the Region 1 versions of "Deadwood" and "Oz" as I refuse to be cheated out of my money.
P.S. I'm not sure if the new Region 2 & 4 21 Disc "Oz The Emerald City Collection" suffers the same fate as the earlier releases.

A great series until the end Sep 18, 2008 I really enjoyed the multiple seasons of OZ. The character development and twists and turns kept me interested up until the end. While there was a lot of violence, it seemed to be for a point, given that the series does take place in a very violent prison. My only issue with the series is that the ending (i.e. last few episodes) seems to completely lose it.

A good send off for OZ Sep 09, 2008 Not the best season of Oz [That would be season2} but much better than the long and confusing 5th season. many lose ends are cleared up and issues with the various cons, hacks, and politicos are finally resolved, like the beef between Beacher and Vern, And what ever happened to the reverend who got buried in the wall? A good send off for the series. DPM
