Oz frenzy again...
Sep. 1st, 2003 11:32 pmThe "Oz" fandom is definitely welcoming! My new listsibs are just so nice, and helpful and enthusiastic... I already got several offers to get some episodes, on tapes or CDs. How nice is that, I'm asking you *g* I won't forget the very first offer though. I'm always baffled by other people's generosity toward virtual strangers *g*
I also was given the URL of a site where I found transcripts, and I have now in my possession the whole show minus four episodes. I mean, how cool is that? Granted, it's not the real thing, but transcripts are a step closer to the stories, the characters, in some way a step closer to the the spirit of the show, know what I mean? My imagination is working like crazy with each new line I'm reading, this is *brilliant*!
And speaking of what is said in "Oz", how can I resist a show where I can find a combination of dialogs like this :
(From "The Tip")
Robson: Hey, c'mon, wake up. Get up for a second.
Beecher: No.
Robson: C'mon.
Beecher: Fuck you.
Robson: Suck my cock. C'mon, man, suck my cock. C'mon, suck my cock, prag.
Beecher: Fuck you. (Robson hits him.) All right, all right.
Robson: Get up. Let's go. C'mon, let's go.
Beecher, OK, ok.
Robson: C'mon, bitch
With soliloquy like this (it's Hill speaking, in "Losing your Appeal)
Boy meets girl. Boy gets laid. What makes us want to fuck somebody? Is it the color of their eyes, the shape of their legs, the spike of their heels? Or is what the poets tell us, that there's something deeper. A shared loss, a longing to find someone who knows the depth of our sadness. Some people search their whole lives for that someone. Some find them, some don't. Some fool themselves into believing they're in love. And in Oz, most times, the illusion is better than the reality.
Nice, uh? I'm still making my way through the transcripts, I downloaded them all this afternoon, and I started reading them, but some things, you have to savour *g*
