Orange Is the New Black

It's really sad to see a good show go this way. It has now turned into a b grade sitcom with bad acting.

Such a deeply moving, painfully beautiful show. It may have some slow points but it is utterly worth committing from start to end. I've never seen a show do such a wonderful job in their character development and allowing you to see how human every individual is. Often a sharp reminder of the current political climate we live in, and how privilege wins out, even in prison. The power dynamics and complex relationships are so well-written. Hands down, would recommend any day.

The first seasons were good, fun, addicting. But what happened?! Especially season 6, like wth I can't even... This bs 'war' between Carol and Barb?! No one gives a sh*t and it was too childish for words. And not to mention this awful annoying character 'Badison'. From her face, her background story to her freakin' annoying way of talking: I think most people hated her to the core.

Also, most of the original cast disappeared. And of the ones who remained: Piper and Alex' lovestory became boring a long time ago, and what was the role of Flaca even?! Doing some radioshow that wasn't even funny? I was glad Blanca got a bigger role tho, she's always been funny as hell :)

The longest series I have ever watched which was close to 90 hours.

Initially I was not interested in watching the series because of nudity, drug, sex, profane language content; but as the episodes moved on I found it interesting because of the portrayal of all the characters.

The story baseline is the prison life and crimes inside the prison. The episodes revolve around how each of the characters are doing good in their life and they end up in prison life doing some mistake.

I really liked the way they used contrasting short flashbacks for depicting how malice each and every prison inmate are on one side and on the other side how soft-cornered they are to their dear people and how one selfish act of them ended them in prison life.

They have shown how miserable and hard, prison life is amidst the corruption and the politics on the prison administration.

On top of all what made it more catchy was the frequent usage of drama and humour in the scenes.

This show is a seriously funny drama.

If you like 'Weeds', 'Breaking Bad' or prefer your humour on the darker side, then give it a go... you will not be disappointed.

Very few people create characters like Jenji Kohan... and it is the characters that make this show. Like 'Weeds', 'Orange' is fresh and original, and like 'Weeds' the lead character is tragically flawed and hilariously funny.

Well done to Netflix on their latest production... 'Hemlock Grove' is just weird, 'House of Cards' was hit and miss... but it looks like the third time is a charm. Bravo.

(FYI: humour is how we Brits spell humor). :-)
