Oz is an HBO TV Series set in a prison and chronicles the lives of everyone tangled with the prison, from the inmates and their families to the officers and administrators of the jail. Oz is written by Tom Fontana, who is also the show’s creator, and stars Harold Perrineau as narrator Augustus Hill, Rita Morena as Sister Peter Marie, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Simon Adibisi, J.K. Simmons as Vernon Schillinger, Dean Winters as Ryan O’Reily and Chris Meloni as Chris Keller. Oz is the nickname given to the Oswald State Correctional Facility. The show’s plot centers around the events at Emerald City, which is an experimental section of the prison where the goal is to reform the inmates so they become better citizens. The show examined questions about right vs. wrong, sexuality, morality, life and death. It never had an easy answer for the questions it raised, usually presenting multiple shades of grey to a particular theme, allowing the viewer to arrive to his or her own conclusions. Oz aired on HBO between 1997 and 2003.MORE
