Discussion Season 5-6
I think embarrassed ending for the Oz. Wtf going on with Said? How can he die on random guy? And in maximum security? Last season is heartbreaking for me. Should not end like that.

I have been made the new moderator since this community has been unmoderated for a long time now.
“How would x do in Oz” posts can only be made on Thursdays.
No more posts about your favorite prag or fanfics where you talk about being raped.
Memes and silly posts and whatnot are okay but they have to be related to Oz. You shouldn’t be afraid to post what you want as long as it’s not one of those weird sexual posts.
No personal attacks on other users.

All right you degenerates, I need your attention.
I was mod, the main one will keep being u/selverd2 I am here to help. I am the Sean Murphy to his McManus (maybe that was a little gay but this is oz)
With that being said we are not going to ban "how would x do in oz" posts. Instead we will try to limit its increasing flow in this sub that ends up blocking other more relevant posts. I know there are people who do enjoy it, it is a creative exercise and it is about oz. Therefore, I have created a new post tag called "Sentenced to oz!" That you will apply to all of the posts where you ask for people to imagine how would a certain character do in oz. Also it is only going to be allowed on Thursdays. Everyday that is not a Thursday, if a post with that tag shows up, it will be removed with a comment saying this. Also if a post like this is made without the tag, it will also be removed.
Now for more interesting news: Every first saturday of the month, I will personally create a new "Inside oz: episode [x]" thread, where I will add a brief summary of the episode in question and you can all feel free to discuss things about that episode. We will go from episode 1 to the last one by order of course.
Any new threads that you would like, please do suggest in the comments of this post!

I guess after leaving Oz Beecher decided that he actually liked dressing in drag when he was still Schillinger's prag.

It always interested that Winthrop kinda acted as a foil to Beecher as while both endured the torment of Schillinger, Beecher although under his influence maintained part of his humanity and never fully submitted to him though Schillinger became a major aspect of his life.
It's honestly interesting because in the show they say Oz simply reveals what one tried to conceal on the outside. One of the first things Beecher says to Guenzel is to remember the guilt of his crime to maintain one's humanity. Though Beecher compromises his values and morality multiple times in the series, he still retains his core self throughout the show. Winthrop on the other hand was a follower on the outside and a follower in Oz, he and Guenzel rationalize their actions by stating it's Oz that makes them the way they are and Winthrop blames Guenzel saying he didn't want to rape that girl when we see he clearly had a choice in the flashback.
Though subject to his influence, Beecher frequently either resists or carries a degree of suspicion in his interactions with Schillinger. Winthrop foolishly offers to join his tormentors, even trying to use his outside merits and credentials which have no outside use in Oz. In killing Beecher's father he basically repeats an amplified verison of the same pattern that sent him to Oz, betrays the memory of his friend and completely gives in to the man that subjected him to unspeakable suffering that shapes Winthrop in Schillinger's image. Even the scene where he "becomes" an Aryan resembles Beecher's makeup scene where Schillinger has the same sadistic grin. In the scene where they discuss the sentencing of Mayor Loewen, he's seen holding to the corner of bed still intimidated by Schillinger like when he was a prag. Embracing Schillinger was his downfall and he was desposed as quickly as he was used falling to similar temptations as Beecher. Beecher wasn't perfect but he maintained his humanity, what existed in Winthrop was there long before he entered the world of Oz.
As Schillinger himself said, "A bitch is a bitch is a bitch."

In 2004 Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson did a show on Fox called “The Jury”. The premise is that each week, in the same New York City courtroom, a new 12-person jury deliberates over a criminal case. Each episode begins at the start of jury deliberations; the trial is recounted through flashbacks.
Episode 5 dealt with a death during a prison riot and guest starred J.K. Simmons (Schillinger), Eamonn Walker (Said), Scott William Winters (Cyril), Craig muMs Grant (Poet), George Morfogen (Rebadow), R.E. Rodgers (Robson), Jon Seda (Dino), and Betty Buckley (Suzanne), along with Stephanie Pope (Nancy Mears), Carlo Alban (Luis Ricardo), Natascia Diaz (Margarita Ricardo), Elain R. Graham (Lenore Hughes), and Derrick Simmons (Billie Keane).
Fontana will regularly cast actors he worked with on Oz in his other shows (and a few appeared in other episodes of the Jury), but I think this is the only time so many have appeared together.
Thanks to Thedemonazrael751 for noticing Natascia.

How does he take McManus seriously when he says he's going to be charged with murder for shoving someone? I know this is Oz but come on

Peter’s storyline is easily one of the most tragic downfalls in the show ( It was a traumatic watch) He came into Oz trying so hard to fill his fathers shoes, but he just didn't have what it took to survive Emerald City.
After everything Adebisi and the Aryans did to him, he was completely broken. By the time he was messing with the evil eye against O'Reily in Season 6, The Italians had enough of him and got rid of him)
But what if the Sicilians had just written what he said as just insanity / O'reily twisting words Instead of killing him because he was embarrassing the family, what if they just ignored him and let him be?
If the show had a Season 7, do you think Peter could have actually survived by himself.
Was there ever any real hope for him, or was he always doomed?
(I love Petey schibetta btw 💀💀💀 - It hurts everytime I watch the show)
Why is Christian soo attracted to Beecher? and why are his actions so unpredictable? does he really love him, or is it just because Chris wants to experience some effects since hes bored???
