    Orange Is the New Black

    So far pretty good. The female version of Oz.

    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    Great boobage from the start. It's an enjoyable show to watch. Some over acting by some characters but the lead girl is good.

    Excellent third effort by Netflix....house of cards was awesome, the second show they did was brutally bad - and this one seems a winner. I was a real big weeds fan til they turned it into ridiculous mess. Love the way they do this and like buttah mentioned the flashbacks really work and def some strong acting. This looks like something they could get a few seasons out of and really put Netflix in the mix with the big boys and girls. Their binge watching model is the wave of the future and wouldn't be surprised to see HBO and showtime mimic to some degree. Great stuff!

    Season 2 - Piper is released but ends up back in prison in just two days after mistakenly not paying for a chai latte....

    Watched five episodes with the wife and both love it so far...

    Great casting, acting and love Natasha Lyonne. Wife recognized her from "Slums of Beverly Hills" which is a great dark comedy if you've never seen it.

    Love this show! Netflix is killing it between this and House of Cards. Can't wait for Season 2

    I only have one episode left to end season 1 and I'm bummed. I really like the acting. I'm concerned that season 2 will start to get soap opera-ee.

    Think that character is weakest part of show. He does indeed seem like he walked off the set/script of an entirely different show. Completely incongruous and over-egged.

    Totally different style in season 2. Much more info on other characters than Piper.

    And a lot more serious drama. I'm digging it.

    Finished season 2 last night. What a great series! I really liked how they fleshed the characters out more this season. The last episode was perfect, from the Beer Can to the "That woman is very rude."

    Yes, I agree, it was a very strong sophomore season.

    Great ending, too. Bummed we have to wait another year.
