What is a shame is that there isn't stuff that is as great as 'Oz' on a consistent level around today.

In a sense, 'Out of Oz' is an examination of how individuals keep going, keep reinventing themselves and their lives, even after life-altering complications have afflicted them.

I think 'Oz' is the type of show that makes you turn away in fear and in horror, so for a television show, that's pretty intense.

When I was young, I colored in the line drawings in vintage editions of the Oz books that had been handed down through generations in my family. This was a bad thing to do.

I was obsessed with 'The Wizard of Oz.'

One day between takes on the 'Oz' set, I went into one of the cells and laid down and dozed off. When I woke up, I thought I was back in a federal pen. But I did my time, and today no one is more of a free man than Chuck Zito.

Honestly, six months before getting 'Orange Is the New Black,' I remember telling my manager I was done.

I will not cut my film because, because, because, because of the Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

When I go back to New York all these years later, I'll walk down Seventh Avenue, and I'll hear, 'Yo, Oz!' In New York, I get recognized for that all the time.

I do try to let what is obviously unintended yet naturally good stay in.
