Obsessed with Oz

"Oz" is my favorite show of all time, and I thought I should share my obsession with the world via Tumblr. I'm named "ryan-oreily" because he is my favorite character, and you will see him (slightly) more than anyone else. I also like to pretend the show is still on. Just kidding. But seriously. ;)

Recognize this quote? It's the Irish Blessing given by Ryan O'Reily to Beecher! I was so excited when I found it on a plaque. It's now displayed by my Oz book.

12 years ago today, February 23, 2003, Oz aired its last episode ever. What an outstanding legacy it leaves.
