Yeah, HBO has been producing stuff, series', etc, since way before that.
I'm not sure why you're so convinced a show like OZ would not fly today. I see no reason why it wouldn't. Viewers are craving (and loving) the most intense shows HBO and Showtime can produce right now, the more intense the better. If OZ had never existed and was only getting made right now I have no doubt whatsoever it would be a big hit.
