who is watching Orange is the New Black?

[BlackCanary]

I have a huge girl crush on Laura Prepon.

I love how the show goes into the back story on a lot of the characters. 

[blueshirt2003]

I just completed the first season.

I can't wait for the second season.

Yea, its nice to have the background info!

[vaportrail]

Is this a Netflix exclusive?  I just saw it available on there and thought it was just beginning.  I didn't know it was already through season 1.  I had never heard of it before about a week ago.

Yea, its Netflix only.

You can find it on Project Free Tv maybe also.

It's written by the same writer as Weeds.

When it's a Netflix series, they'll release an entire season all at once. That's why you only heard about it a week ago, but there's already a full season up. I finished it a few days ago. Fantastic. The ending was a bit predictable, but I still enjoyed it. Apparently it's based on a book? Either way, I want more!

[brittmk0922]

Just started watching it this past weekend and loving it!

[statlerwaldorf]

I just started watching it and I really like it.

[BlackCanary]

Dumbledork The book is pretty good, I recommend it.

Oh, ok. I never knew that's what it meant.

We just watched episode 2 last night and I'm loving it! I think we'll have the whole season watched by the end of the week.

[sushi]

We watched episode 1 last night. No one told me it originally aired on skinemax!

Seriously, it seemed like a whole lot of gratuitous boobs just to catch a male audience. I'm hoping it actually gets interesting because first episodes are usually plodding. At least with all the (.)(.) H will want to watch with me?

Maybe? I got DH to watch the first episode last night, he thought it was ok. 

I'm sure he didn't hate the fact that there were a lot of (.)(.) 

[blueshirt2003]

Yes, there's quite a bit of breasts shown.

Lol - Yeah, I thought the same thing. I think it was a little more gratuitous in the first episode to bring people in. I'm on episode 4 I think and didn't notice it as much in the last two episodes as I did in the first episode.

[sushi]

We watched episodes 2 and 3 the other night and would have watched the 4th if we weren't dead tired, so, yes, it does get better and less boobfilled. Poor H

[IrishBelle]

We watched the first and second episodes so far are I'm liking it. I'm sure DH is too!

[rosiedozie]

I guess I watch so many Showtime and HBO shows that I didn't notice any excessive boobage!

I'm on episode 8 right now and I'm loving it so far! But it gave me really weird prison dreams last night (I started the series yesterday afternoon).

[BlackCanary]

Right rosiedozie?! Deadwood, Weeds, SATC...I feel like I'm missing a few. 

[dexteroni]

I watched the whole season between Friday and today and loved it. I kind of "eh" about the first episode, but I kept going because I had heard so many good things, and I'm so, so glad I did. I can't remember a show when I've been this invested in so many of the characters. Showing the inmates' back stories is such a good idea. I love Taystee and Crazy Eyes. Laura Prepon actually bugs the heck out of me, but she was good in this role. I requested the book from the library, although a lot of the reviews say Piper is annoying, which I can see, because her character is kind of annoying. So a book written in her voice is probably kind of annoying too, but I'm interested anyway.

They haven't shown Crazy Eyes' back story yet, have they? Or Big Boo? I love that she's the puppy wrangler. And do we know what Poussey did to get into prison?

I kind of want to watch it again to get a look at the characters I didn't get to "know" until later. DH was away this weekend so if he wants to watch it, I'll watch again with him.

[dexteroni]

Also, my hope re: the ending is that

SPOILER: Click to show

Piper knocked all or at least most of Pennsatucky's teeth out and she gets a new nice set, and that will make things ok between them.[\spoiler]

I think the same thing. Boy, does she need new ones!

A woman in her late 20s (maybe early 30s) who goes to minimum-security prison for aiding her drug-dealing girlfriend 10 years prior. The show starts on the first day she's reporting to prison but uses a lot of flashbacks to tell her story and the stories of some of the other inmates.

Sounds interesting.  I will have to check it out!

just finished the season. Loved it. Cant wait for more!

[ECB]

I just finished last night. Healy surprised me the most at the end. I know he's pissed, but I didn't realize he was THAT pissed.

Do we know when the next season is supposed to come out?

[ECB]

I immediately recognized Pablo Schreiber from Weeds.  I just saw a picture of him from The Wire.  Seriously - would NOT have recognized him.  His nose looks different.  I had heard he was in the Wire, but I couldn't place him.  Now that I have ... wouldn't have made the connection on my own.
