Oz
( 1997 )
HBO's violent men-behind-bars drama is an addictive, testosterone-driven soap opera for guys.

Created by Homicide producer Tom Fontana, this drama quickly earned its rightful reputation as the most brutal show on TV. It's simple chemistry: combine volatile ingredients in a confined space, shut tight, and shake.
