Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The miniseries was filmed in Vancouver during the same year as Battlestar Galactica's final season, sharing some crew and that same grim-yet-campy Syfy energy.
This was part of a 2000s wave of dark Oz retellings (including Wicked on Broadway), reflecting post-9/11 anxieties about homeland security and corrupted authority figures.
