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.

It's not about intensity, just where and how the series is shot, the characters, the themes, the rape. I don't think they would give a show like that the green light. At the time it came out it was a big risk, I just think now it would be even bigger.
