@@MichelangeloVA Yeah because Nino seems to have this aura of "self-control" around him, he hardly seems like a shallow person which is key to how he became a mob boss, very smart, very political, and doesn't just strong arm people into doing what he wants, it makes it more tragic when he gets manipulated by Ryan O'Reilly and gets a really awful fate with the glass. I TOLD YOU, YOU'RE MAKING THE SAUCE TOO SPICY! IDK WHAT YOU'RE PUTTING IN THAT SAUCE, BUT IT'S TOO GODDAMN SPICEY... It just goes to show his Italian up bringing and cuisine provided the perfect Trojan horse/smoke screen for not noticing how abnormal and detrimental the glass inside his food would be. By the time he even consults help, it's too late. A long and agonizing death would follow. In a way though, I feel his spiritual need to seek absolution and failing to pass the tests that God and his faith would throw at him, not wanting to change his point of view by accepting an Asian priest, by not respecting his soldier's feelings, by not being true and honest about confessing and the nature of confession, he wants the results without putting in the work, in the end, refusing to acknowledge his sins, and refusing to let God into the private aspects of his life leads to it "cutting him up" on the inside, like stigmata, and "crying blood" the way he bleeds from the ears, the nose, the mouth, with Oz's leanings into the supernatural and spirituality, it really did fit and I kind of wish they kept this in, also adds so much more character into the Italian dude who ran the kitchen, the way he doesn't wanna be called an idiot, I love the editing, kinda showing Mukada see's what's going on, Nino's men confess to him and provide a bigger picture of what sins Nino's committing, and Nino thinks he can't confess these sins, and his fears are futile since Mukada already knows through the other mobsters who've confessed to him. I'll need to rewatch but I wonder if things would have played out differently, if by changing the course of events and how he acted, if O'Reilly wouldn't have given Adabesi the idea of glassing his food.
Father Mukada was a badass. He stood up to the Sicilians, Aryans, Bikers etc. Took an assbeating like a man, was the only one who cared about the poor Reverend. I'm glad he made it out unscathed, at least physically.
Joey D'Angelo was underrated. He handled himself pretty well against Adebisi in that exercise room. What ever happened to him after the Kitchen attack? He survived but he never resurfaced in the show.
Yeah and his actor is like completely esoteric. Apparently used to be a rapper who made Italian themed songs. Sounds cool. Wish there was more info on him
Plus the father standing up to him he should have done it again when Nino was insulting him again but maybe not since Nino was plotting to kill him anyways.
I feel bad for the actor who played Joey this was his best work on the show and it did not even make the final cut.Who ever thought this scene should be deleted should have been fired on the spot.
I enjoyed the "back and forth" parts during the confession scene, where it kept alternating between Schibetta and D'Angelo. I thought it synched up pretty good.
Annette Albright agree and those scenes with nino d'angelo and father mukada i dont know how they didnt make the show every episode was 54 minutes long so why not 57 minutes
Fenny Famous You have to get DVD of Oz it has all scenes, for example kosygin got murder in the hole by a lady named Lana keech, also in final episode Robson let's Clarence seroy rape him to give him aids and schillinger kicks him out of the brotherhood but Robson don't care.
Agreed Oz is such a great show very well written and the acting is so emotionally charged , and no the wire isn't that good honestly Oz is definitely a better show.
lol Oz was good, but The Wire was far superior. Oz was a little too fake at times and gets carried away with itself. You obviously didn't understand The Wire to say that it wasn't good. You may have a preference for Oz, but it's definitely not the better show. The Wire was far more "emotionally charged" as you would say. The acting was flawless, especially from the children during Season 4. The Writing was truly a work of art, more like a television novel than an actual TV show.
You obviously do not understand the basic conventions of television, the wire was not well written at all , clearly you do not understand Oz to comprehend the emotional charge that went into the show , the wire is okay but it's not amazing nor does it set any sort of bench mark of great content.
You also pointed out flaws in the wire in your own comment , for an avid reader I would say yes the wire would be a fine BOOK , as a tv show carries no merit at all. As for realism in oz ,television that is written for the purpose of entertainment is created with inconceivable plot lines because it is a work of fiction , the wire's writing seems poorly thought out , and styleless, it is your opinion that the wire is a better show , with a critical mind it is clear to see oz is leaps and bounds ahead in all aspects of creativity and production.
As much as I loved Ralphie and Phil Leotard, maybe he could have perhaps been one of them or at least added a new character in for him or an addition to Tony’s crew, he would have been GREAT in The Sopranos
Joey D’Angelo was such an interesting character. The look on his face when he says “I am”. He’s genuinely sorry, he’s just honest about the future. I wish he and Dino Ortolani (I’m 50/50 on Schibetta Sr) were on the show longer. I think their characters could have been interesting, especially dealing with Chucky Pancamo and Peter Schibetta later on. The Italians felt under represented on this show, which is weird because the first three episodes were like all about Italians. (Love Chucky Pancamo and Peter Schibetta though)
Joey was great. No doubt the most underrated member of the Italians. I too wonder how he would've dealt with things later on after Nino's death. Especially with Peter. Seeing as he served the father so loyally, so shall he serve the son.
MusicallyStoned Yeahhh, especially with something like Peter’s rape. Joey is a tough guy, so he might have seen it as a weakness like the other Italians, but in these scenes, he seems caring, at least to his own, and might have sympathized. Can’t believe he was out by episode 4. He might have been what Peter needed.
@@jamievenezia1617 dont worry man, i suspess english more chances. Matao in Spain is like a 'man who want appear a hard boy, but is a normal guy' and peter wasn't a hard boy
I’m glad nino and ray confessional scene didn’t make it. I liked nino. But when I saw this scene made me dislike him. Had that cut made it, would have changed my perception of him. Since I’ve been a fan of Oz for 22 years, can’t have that happen.
Thank you for this never seen any deleted scenes and I have the boxset but its obviously a shit boxset because the only extras are a few commentaries I think...anyway thanks for posting I'm gonna subscribe because I've been a fan of this show since it started and never even knew this existed so thank you
2:25, Father's voice changes and the audio has been dubbed in during post production because the acoustics in Makuda's voice changes at 2:25 in comparison to when he first talks to Nino.
I'm glad they cut the MUkada-Schibetta stand off/confession because that is not Mukada's character at all. Yes he's brave, but he would not have an ego that big that Schibetta could provoke him to such a reaction. Also, Schibetta's a boss, probably the most powerful of prisoners at that moment, and for Mukada to just stand up to him like that, even if Mukada's new on the job he'd know not to be foolish enough to think his black robes save him from harm.
He went head to head with Chris Keller,nTimmy Kirk, Miguel Alvarez, Enrique Morales, Vern Schillinger, and I can’t even remember smaller ones. The whole reason he got the job in Oz was because he had “too many opinions” and was later told that he had to “let go of his ego”. It’s entirely his character. I kind of understand what you’re saying but over the whole show, they portrayed him as someone who was almost too naive to understand that he was putting himself in harms way in his pursuit of right an wrong. Leaving that scene in is entirely his character. Plus the swearing is very him😂
@@jamievenezia1617 I agree with you Peter and one time he disrespected the latinos and Miguel told him he would of got a beating for that but they knew he was cool with Miguel so they didnt. He worked at OZ and that in itself promotes that Father Ray Mukada had bigger balls or less brains than the OP thinks.Also the OP assumes he knows who Nino is when he could have NO IDEA who Nino is at that point since he only worked there a month and Nino didnt go to church or confession until this scene. Ray Mukada and Tim Mcmanus both came off like they had good intentions but if provoked either would go off where their common sense would disappear. Both of them shared the too much balls or too little brains. Ray told Timmy Kirk he was going to burn in hell to his face.That gives more proof to the point he would of said what he said to Nino and this scene should of been kept.
@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants Mukada did get a beating by The Latinos when the riot kicked off and he was screaming for Miguel to help him. When he walked into Miguel's cell and told El Norte to leave, Miguel has also warned him to not push his luck. He and McManus were more so likely ignorant and naive as to what the inmates could've done to them.
@@lasombradelaluz8802 I dont think they were ignorant and naive as to what the inmates could've done to them. I think they lacked the brains or had 2 much balls for that to stop them.
@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants Perhaps, but probably lacked the brains or commonsense. Having ball's with the wrong individuals could still put said person in a world of trouble. Depending on the situation.
Fucking total waste the Mukada scene man Fonseca has fucked up Oz in so many ways this tv show would of been truly LEGENDARY if only the creators simply kept the good scenes and as well made Cyril normal (the O’Riley brothers would of easily ruled Oz at that point) and many other factors. Smh. Oh well.
2:30 while Nino was totally in the wrong and racist as hell here (Ray likely isn't even Chinese as Nino spitefully says--Mukada is a surname most common in either Japan, Goa and Western India): for the sake of convenience, could Sister Pete not have taken his bullshit last-minute confession? Or are nuns not permitted to do that? (add sexism to the list)
@@aerobars9227 She hit the lottery going from OZ to the Sopranos and OZ didnt show how well she could act like her part didnt have the range like Carmela Soprano did.Plus I learned from learning how to speak Italian that Carmela means candy in Italian.
That was basically like a remake of this scene, most likely because this was never shown until the DVD releases, because Mukada said the same exact thing to Keller like he did with Schibetta by admitting his opinion about Keller's crimes by being without any sympathy and said he can only point this out to the Authorities not him during a Confession. Keller also ends the confession off with also an Racial insult, except it what Schibetta said about him, a "Slanty-eyed hack in Black".
Ralph what should he have acted like he was a priest. Nino was plotting to kill him after this and Timmy Kirk tried to kill him literally when got Clarence to set fire to his home.
He got his ass beaten badly by The Latinos when the riot kicked off. Mukada pretty much pushed his luck when Miguel was talking to El Norte and Mukada walks in and tells them to leave. Miguel states the only reason they didn't fuck him up right there was because he had been there for him. Then he screamed and begged for Miguel when the riot began.
Looks like that vishnu come lately to pick the bones buchiach Janice Soprano finally had to start supporting herself after T got wasted in Holsten's and Bacala flopped over the train station.
