Better Protected....


'Get Better Protected from Mayhem'


I know I'm not the only one who see's actor Dean Winters in those Allstate and thinks back to his time on OZ.  Dean may cause lots of mayhem in the Allstate ads, but none of it comes close to the mayhem he created as Ryan O'Reily on the HBO drama.


I especially think back to one of my favorite scenes from the episode 'A Word to the Wise.'  In the season 4 episode, Winters as Ryan gives us a great view as he rises from his bunk to look out over the prison though the glass of his cell.  The directors of OZ gave us a lot of great 'through the looking glass' views of the male cast members. 


It's also nice to see Dean's real life brother, Scott William Winters, joining him in some of the Allstate ads.  OZ fans will remember that Scott also played Dean's brother Cyril O'Reily on OZ.   Now, if we could only get the show remastered in HD, it's time HBO, it's time!
