Something I've noticed about this show, and I'm not sure if anyone else would give a fuck, but it's to do with subtitles.

To my understanding, I believe the scripts are submitted to the people who program the subtitles into the discs, so often when you're watching a movie or a television show with the subtitles on, you'll notice that a word is different, or that the actor ad-libs something in there. I have never noticed that in Oz. Maybe they just went about doing the subtitles a different way from the norm, and actually transcribed them, but one possibility is that Tom Fontana is very protective of his scripts.

I think that man is legendary for writing or co-writing every single episode of that show.
