Oz
When this show first aired on HBO during the late 90's I watched a few episodes here and there, but never a complete season. I remember it was raw and brutal. Curious to learn the complete story, I downloaded all 6 seasons and am currently finishing the first. I must say, it is fucking excellent. Hard to stomach, yes, but brilliantly told, with great stories and lots of stuff to think about.
For those that don't know, this was the first HBO series ever produced. Before The Wire, Before Six Feet Under, Before The Sopranos.
It must of taken a lot of balls to create a show like that back then. I don't think something like that would fly nowadays. Think about it: no sex (other than male rape), no good guys (nobody to root for), all filmed inside a prison (save for some flashback scenes), hardcore violence, depressing themes, mostly all men. It just wouldn't work.
Still, excellent show.
