Wentworth is an classy outstanding and superb drama ever seen till date I would rate this as all time favorite...it's dark, thrilling, emotional, heartfelt, engaging...suspenseful and beyond words...it's one of the best prison drama
I agree - Oz is the perfect show to pick up 20+ years later. You could still have a couple of the original characters still serving their sentences and a blend of new characters and it could work really well.
Much profounder than PB, but i was very dissapointed by the ending. it felt too unresolved, probably because they had to terminate the show. It was too depressing, everything went to shit. Although, that might be the most realistic way it could have ended. But man, it made me sad...
