Where are they now?: OZ Edition! email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz1 year ago

Let's play a game. I had an ex who used to scream out 'I saw him naked' whenever am actor came on TV that used to be on the HBO series OZ. This was unvelievably annoying since it happened all the time, but after I started to watch the repeats of OZ, I started noticing whenever one of the actors or actresses from the show were somewhere else. I think that's because the show was so good and made such an impact when you watched it, that these faces just stood out.

So I wanna play a game I like to call Where are they now?: OZ Edition. Just name an OZ character, the actor's name, and the show and/or character they played elsewhere. I'll even let roles before OZ count, too. A '+' to everybody who comes up with one that wasn't already listed. Hopefully we can get a good game going. I'll start:

Ryan O' Reily (Dean Winters) - Plays Jonny Gavin on RESCUE ME, until his character got killed.

Your turn!

Ok, I saw him naked but it was so long ago that I can't remember what his character's name was on OZ. His real name is Chris Mahone and he is now on Law & Order:SVU. Hate to say it but I often tell my husband that I saw Chris Mahone naked, too. I know it's annoying but so was seeing him naked when it wasn't necessary to the plot.


myLot reputation of 95/100. bluebird1956 (153)   ranked 4 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

Sorry, I forgot to mention that his character's name on Law & Order:SVU is Eliott Stabler.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

His name on OZ was Christopher 'Chris' Keller and he was Tobias Beecher's boyfriend. Good call. I figured he'd be a quick one to be pointed out.


myLot reputation of 95/100. bluebird1956 (153)   ranked 4 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

He is the only one I can remember. I haven't seen that show in years.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

I just finished watching the whole series on HBO repeats a few months ago. I had watched an episode here and there, but once I saw HBO was replaying them in order, I recorded them all. They started over again, and are probably in season two by now.


myLot reputation of 95/100. bluebird1956 (153)   ranked 4 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

I am shocked that no one else has replied. I hope that you will tweak some memories by giving those of us who are interested some character updates.

BTW, thanks for reminding me of my character's name.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

No prob. Keep checking back cause I'm going to have to start giving character updates since there aren't any other posters. I thought there'd be more too, but this is how most of my discussions go. LOL.

I was also thinking about doing something like this on my new blog I just started (http://www.blogchex.com/tweakpotter - shameless plug, feel free to check it out and subscribe - LOL), but I was thinking I may have to get more readers. I was hoping this would attract people, cause then I know it would help my blog, but I guess I was wrong on that one.

OK. Now that was the shameless plug link that sould work. LOL.

Your blob is really interesting. I was especially intrigued by your blind dog and the way you are training her. Bravo!


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

Thank you. That seems ot be the one people are liking. Most of my blogs aren't going to be so nice and friendly though, so not sure how they will be taken. LOL.


myLot reputation of 95/100. bluebird1956 (153)   ranked 4 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

lol Well, good luck with it. You should get some sponsors; it's another way to make money.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

If I knew how, I would.

Tobias Beecher (played by Lee Tergesen) - Played Sully on "Rescue Me," Played Bree's sexaholic boyfriend on "Desperate Housewives"; Played Eddie Drake on the TNT series "Wanted"; has done numerous TV pilots, the latest being "Los Duqes" which may air next season, if it's picked up.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

Wow. Good calls all around. I totally forgot he played Sully on 'Rescue Me'.

hey guys my wife and i are fromaustralia and we dont get oz down here( oh i think they played the first season) but we have fallen in love with the intense drama of the show.
does everyone agree that the show was one of the best around?
we have just finished watching season 5 and are awaiting the arrival of season 6.
anyway this is my first post so heres to new beginnings.
p.s. dont you all hate that augustus hill died at the end of season 5! grrrr we cried


myLot reputation of 90/100. xphile777 (320)   ranked 5 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

I totally agree with you about Oz being the best. The writing was brilliant. The acting was stellar. It was extremely realistic. And the cast and crew were really nice to visitors on the set (me, being one).:)

I, too, was sad when Hill died. Even Tom Fontana (Oz creator, co-exec. producer and writer) cried as he wrote Hill's death scene.

Get ready for Season 6. It's definitely "something." I just wish Oz was still being filmed. I miss it and my other fave TV show, The X-Files, every day.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  1 year ago

They should really try to bring 'OZ' back onto the air. HBO could pull it off, I'm sure. Instead, 'The Sopranos' are getting all the attention, and it's not as good as 'OZ'.

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje who plays Adebisi Is also Mr.Eko in LOST and he also has a part The Bourne Identity.


myLot reputation of 92/100. tweakpotter (373)   ranked 2 out of 7 in oz  7 months ago

Good call on the Bourne Identity.
