Never saw Oz.  Try The Wire.  You will not be sorry.  Although like most shows the final season jumped the shark.

Yeah I was just kidding with Oz. That traumatized me as a kid. I have only heard great things about the Wire and I do expect it to be great. Once I get a chance I’ll start it up

No other show even close.  Look at political world today and the war over the same issues (social inequality, mass unemployment, urban decay and the corruption between police, criminals, politicians, unions and the media) that continue to curse our world.  Yet, it often exposed the humanity or sometimes the lack of in all of it.  The Wire exposed many angles that make up our current society.

 

There;s a fantastic book that came out a couple years ago, ALL THE PIECES MATTER; that chronicles the show's creators/writers/actors/contributors during the show's inception, filming and so forth. It's quite a read. It's well known that THE WIRE used a lot of real people, criminals and such in the show - but the extent is pretty captivating. Right down to real gangster club houses (with their blessing).

Drums was playing really well and then started prematurely celebrating victory and ended up losing. I've been busting his balls ever since. Apparently he's taking it personal now so I guess I'll stop poking him.

Well at least someone is finally taking turns with me. It can get pretty exhausting.

Thanks for ruining mayonnaise for me...

Mayonnaise was ruined the moment it came into existence.
