Overview[edit]

Systran 6 Premium Translator 2007 World Edition Serial Season 2

'Oz' is the nickname for the Oswald State Correctional Facility, formerly Oswald State Penitentiary, a fictional level 4maximum-securitystate prison.

The nickname 'Oz' is also a reference to the classic film The Wizard of Oz (1939), which popularized the phrase, 'There's no place like home.' In contrast, a poster for the series uses the tagline: 'It's no place like home'.^[4] Moreover, most of the series' story arcs are set in 'Emerald City', a wing named after a setting from the fictional Land of Oz in L. Frank Baum's Oz books, first described in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900).

Plot[edit]

The majority of Oz's story arcs are set in 'Emerald City', named for a setting from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900). In this experimental unit of the prison, unit manager Tim McManus emphasizes rehabilitation and learning responsibility during incarceration, rather than carrying out purely punitive measures. Emerald City is an extremely controlled environment, with a carefully managed balance of members from each racial and social group, intended to ease tensions among these various factions.

Under McManus and Warden Leo Glynn, all inmates in 'Em City' struggle to fulfill their own needs. Some fight for power – either over the drug trade or over other inmate factions and individuals. Others, corrections officers and inmates alike, simply want to survive, some long enough to make parole and others just to see the next day. The show's narrator, inmate Augustus Hill, explains the show, and provides context, thematic analysis, and a sense of humor.

Oz chronicles McManus' attempts to keep control over the inmates of Em City. There are many groups of inmates throughout the show, and not everyone within each group survives the show's events. There are the African-American Homeboys (Wangler, Redding, Poet, Keane, Adebisi) and Muslims (Said, Arif, Khan), the Wiseguys (Pancamo, Nappa, Schibetta, Zanghi, Urbano), the Aryan Brotherhood (Schillinger, Robson, Mack), the Latinos of El Norte (Alvarez, Morales, Guerra, Hernandez), the Irish (The O'Reilly brothers, Kirk, Keenan), the Gays (Hanlon, Cramer, Ginzburg), the Bikers (Hoyt, Sands, Burns), the Christians (Cloutier, Coushaine, Cudney) and many other individuals not completely affiliated with one particular group (Rebadow, Busmalis, Keller, Stanislofsky). In contrast to the dangerous criminals, character Tobias Beecher gives a look at a usually law-abiding man who made one fatal drunk-driving mistake.

Critical reception[edit]

Critical reception of Oz was mostly positive. The first season of Oz has been ranked a 70 based on the rating aggregator website Metacritic, indicating generally favorable reviews by critics.^[8] Caryn James from The New York Times stated: 'Set almost entirely in the prison, a high-tech horror with glass-walled cells, Oz can also be unpleasant to watch, it is so gruesome and claustrophobic. Yet.. as the series moves beyond its introductory shock value, it becomes more serious, disturbing and gripping.. The point of Oz, with its depiction of guilty men in torturous circumstances, is never subtle, but it is complicated and strong.'^[9] Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune wrote: 'Engaging, often Brutal.'^[10]

Other reviews were more critical of the series. Frederic Bidle of the Boston Globe said: 'A pretentious exercise in cheap thrills, by great talents allowed to run amok.'^[11] Howard Rosenberg of the Los Angeles Times reported: 'Its unique and arresting style don't earn endorsements here.. there's no light at the end of the tunnel, or a tunnel- that offer central characters to root or pull for [sic] … Be forewarned that Oz is flat-out the most violent and graphically sexual series on TV.'^[12]

Legacy[edit]

Oz is credited by television critic Alan Sepinwall as having paved the way to make possible the creation of the seminal television series The Sopranos, also produced by HBO.^[13]
