@zay yaz doesn't change the fact he got one over on Ryan plus very likely the plan was for Ryan to end up on death row not a major failure if it was Cyril if he was planning on trying to kill them during the fight then why did he not jump in he sat back and watched them kill the other guy and didn't seem to torn up about it clearly his plan was to get one of them on murder
I think that this beef between Ryan and Nikolai started because remember in season 3 when Nikolai was asking for Ryan help by falsifying the story that Yuri Kosygin (actually Ryan did it with good reason, for his brother to live) confessed to spiking the water bottles of most of the people that his brother Cyril boxed. Ryan quickly refused and suggested Nikolai into talking with the Italians about it. Later, Nikolai snitched on Ryan to C.O. Murphy about the real culprit (Ryan). Ryan was caught.
hbo sells their old shows to other channels to broadcast. that logo looks like the channel 'Showcase'. It is a Canadian cable channel that sometimes shows old hbo shows
Robinson Pittman but it's an important distinction. Imagine a European show and it portrays an American as Jewish. It's incidental that he's American and Jewish but he does not represent America, which is predominantly Christian.
NO ONE ever Owned O'Riley. So he busted him for the cell phone but, O'Riley killed him without lifting a finger the same way he did everyone else! Cept Keenan, Ha!
I feel like a Russian mobster should've been more badass on here. Ryan came in with no crew & facing the mobsters that shot him & still managed to never run like a b*tch to the hacks. Stanislofsky should've been ruthless, like a Russian Adebesi.
That might not have done much good because Ryan's weapon was his intellect, strategic thinking, cunning, and shrewdness. He would have likely found a way to outsmart Yuri.
@@Fingerling2012 thank God for hbo max I found this show and the sopranos for the first time and was surprised how good they both were esp the sopranos

Maybe have a French mafia prisoner who is all by himself and is kinda like Ryan but they more compliment each other instead of rivals like stanisfolwski
@@Filthy_Larry - we don't really have a mafia here in France anymore, I mean, it's complicated... we used to, even the term "the goodfellas" comes from the French expression "les beaux-voyous", but nowadays all the French crime families, called "La Pègre" are in Corse (Corsica, the French Island Napoleon was from) and mainly deal with Marseille. In James Bond "On Her Majesty Secret Service", the Big Bad (Marc-Ange Drago) working with Blofeld is a French "Pègre" member situated in Corsica, and was supposed to be the most powerful mobster in all of Europe, but that was in the 1970s. And the last time the French mafia was powerful was during the infamous "French Connection" in the 1970s, where all the Heroin in the USA came from France, from Marseilles to be precise. But little by little, the classic "French Milieu" lost more and more power as more and more immigrants created their own mobs in the "citées" and their own organized crime families of Arabs and Black Africans.
unkle ace doubt those dinosaur phones had that option. when i watched the show, i was just waiting for the thing to ring. it was one of the weaker plot elements. you knew that was bound to happen... it was just a matter of time. too elementary for these 'criminal masterminds'
Ryan didn’t have the charger, so I’d assume he’d turn it off when not using it to maintain the battery. But he leaves it on when he’s not using it? Don’t know about that
I don’t know why he didn’t just have Querns call the phone. Maybe it was to prevent Ryan from figuring out he told Querns about the phone, but he was a dead man anyway.
So Querns was willing to give Stanislovsky two last requests because he was likely to die DIRECTLY due to Querns not being willing to follow basic prisoner safety? The show is shockingly flawed in logic yet you have to love the sheer insanity of the storylines
A long time ago if a man stole another man's cow or lamb or pig and butchered it and was found with the animals blood on his fingers he was said to caught red handed of course if the robber was too cocky to wash his hands maybe he deserved to get busted
The battery life of a 1999 cell phone was longer than the life of a prisoner in Oz
That’s because the guy who brought the cell phone in Oz had a charger
😂😂😂 This is golden
But peep this they had outlets in their cells in Em City which made zero fucking sense in the first place lol

Its a huge plothole for someone as sharp as Ryan to not turn the phone off when not using it.
even geniuses make mistakes or forget here in there
I thought that too but maybe someone found it and took it off silent just to fuck with Ryan, at that point they knew querns was looking for it and they couldn’t risk being caught with it
Especially when being able to charge the phone would already be problematic as it is in a place like Oz.

or the fact that hiding spot is terrible.

keeping the phone on when you're not using it and a truly terrible hiding place. No wonder O'Reilly is in prison.
Well, he is in prison for blatantly running over two road workers in a drug fueled binge, so yeah.
Ryan was the smartest man on a block of impossibly stupid men. Hell of a sliding curve.
The only person that didn't fall for O'reilys Bullshxt!
I was mad as hell when he got killed off.
Damn You Rubber Ducky!

Yea it used to show on late friday nights on Showcase back in the late 1990s/early 2000s.
They show south park I'm pretty sure as well
As Canadian can confirm
Damn O'Reily, why didn't you put the phone in airplane mode? LOL!!!!
I guess there was no silent mode on phones back than
Why wouldn't O'Reilly just turn the ringer off?
Or just turn it off since he pretty much only used it for outgoing calls haha
he should have swapped the ringer with walter from the big lebowski!
This was 1999/2000, Cell’s we’re still in their infancy. I don’t think there even was a “ringer off” option back then.
could still have turned off the cell phone itself
Exactly, it's not like he could leave it charging somewhere. Turn it off while not using it.
Therefore, Nikolai has had his target on Ryan since that situation from season 3 through season 4.
o reilly going "wuh what cellphone sir?" "theyre against the rules sir" is the funniest part of the show ever 😂 i rewound that part like 100 times
Trying to hide a phone from anybody finding it.... leaves ringer on... lol
Shame they didn't have more Russians on the show.
Robinson Pittman but it's an important distinction. Imagine a European show and it portrays an American as Jewish. It's incidental that he's American and Jewish but he does not represent America, which is predominantly Christian.
Hahaha yess. Important distinction. Everything is a spectrum
Fuck russia
He’s a Jew. Just a Russian Jew. It’s cool guys.
@@Littleathquakes So Tony Soprano is not American but a Italian Catholic?!

In his flashback he was a con artist and petty thief. He got caught selling stolen jewelry to an undercover cop. He wasn’t that far up the totem pole.

Oz could never be written today. CCTV in every corner would ruin every plotline.
Nikolai just waited for Ryan to be in a situation that he couldn't get out of and take advantage of it, a.s.a.p.
why not just tell Querns to dial the number?
Because that would incriminate stanslovsky, that he too was using the cell at somepoint caz he knew the number.
Edgar Garred he told him he had the phone and now O’Reily has it
@@quayshonellis7577 yeah but never told him if it was used or not

who would't put their phone on silent
Don't fuck with Querns. LOL
They need a oz show now. New cast and new problems
Maybe have a French mafia prisoner who is all by himself and is kinda like Ryan but they more compliment each other instead of rivals like stanisfolwski
They would never do a show like Oz in this day and age, to many snowflakes that would get offended at all the swearing, nudity, violence and rape.

Yes they did. I've had a cell phone since 97.
he has a hot gf.
Just like girl from the 70 show
Presuming that prison is 99-percent lead, that cell phone would never work there.

It was a nokia brick phone... Those beasts last months without charge lol
Seems pretty fucked up on the wardens part.
Two things...did they not have cell-phone sniffing dogs back then? And did those phones not have "vibrate"?
They put charger up their shitbox!!!!
Damm O’Rielly
nothing even happened to ryan after this
Oz hasn't been on HBO in years
It's on hbo max now
I swear O'Reilly reminds me of Stifler
..... WHY WOULD HE LEAVE THE PHONE ON!!???? 😂😂😂😂
Why didn't he just tell the prison the phone number instead.
i now that but this is an hbo show, what is the simbol in the bottom right corner. thats not the hbo logo
Hey it's the guy from Square One TV.
Some of our institutions have cell phone signal interupters.
How many people had that same phone back in the day
I don’t know why he didn’t just have Querns call the phone. Maybe it was to prevent Ryan from figuring out he told Querns about the phone, but he was a dead man anyway.
Ryan wouldnt be dumb enough to leave the ringer on.
Michael Irvin held that phone like a fresh nappy filled with shite
Remember Nikolai got the charger too from Gallino when he got the cellphone from him
He did, but when Hoyt and the other bikers attacked him in the gym, he only had the phone on him, which Ryan quickly stuck in his sock.
I mean...he temporarily owns him before Ryan gives him up to the almighty but...yeah.
MASTER STROKE!!!!
Silent Mode; apparently Unheard of, in Oz.
Nikolai falsified the story to Ryan and the Italians was because he was afraid that Yuri was belligerent towards him when arriving in the prison.
So Querns was willing to give Stanislovsky two last requests because he was likely to die DIRECTLY due to Querns not being willing to follow basic prisoner safety?
The show is shockingly flawed in logic yet you have to love the sheer insanity of the storylines
lol was just thinkin the same thing
How did they keep it charged? Those old Nokia's only have a couple of days charge in them.
and the corner
If he had a brain, he wouldn't be in prison in the first place.
I guess the phone doesn’t have airplane or silent mode
Silly Ryan wouldn't turn it off.
oz hasn't been on hbo in years
Why didn't he tell quens to call the number
"It's pearsonal."
Well, rules is rules
Criminal Masterminds too Stupid to Silence a Mobile Phone; no wonder they’re in Prison.
the chick who plays nikolais girl is hot but i cant find the actresses name anywhere.
donnchadh mcgrath she’s in the Wire S2-The episode where Mcnulty goes to visit Eastern European women awaiting deportation.
Show was entertaining but unbelievable and this just shows ( not turning off the ringer?really?)
Querns was a str8 goof.
What Channel is this on i know its not hbo
Stanislofsy, I hated and loved this character. Passive/aggressive with this guy.
it was an HBO show at one time
Still is, it's on hbo max now
Funny that now inmates are rampant on Tik Tok
nokia's did have silent function
Why not just let Querns call the cellphone? Why have his girlfriend do it? Also, how did he know the phone number?
Khara Bieiri he wanted to see his girlfriend one more time because he knew he was going to die and why wouldn't he know the phone number?
Stanislofsky had the phone before O’Reilly had it
Why didn't oreilly just turn the ringer off
Querns should of been warden a lot sooner.
i know but its an hbo original? since like 2003 it hasent been on but this channel isnt hbo or is it ?
this is showcase a canadain network, it played some hbo shit back in the day. oz and sopranos.
The raided the whole pod and it's simply taped under a chair?!? I liked the show but so many things we not realistic

How did he charge the battery?
His Words In Red they have power outlets in prison built for inmates to use?
This show Is cool and retarded at the same time...
Old school Nokia's could keep power for months
I believe Stanislovsky's girlfriend was in a skit in The Chappelle Show lol. Wasn't she a model with herpes? Lol.
ill set it up
Bs aint no one believe that the phone was still powered on. Huge plothole
lmao was it under the seat the entire time?
Very least vibrate mode.
stanislavski like foxxy:))))))
At 2:40, if they're both Russian, why are they speaking English?
Empyriumman because the narrative is English and/or HBO didnt wanna install subtitles
maybe because they're in america.
