 Re: Orange is the New Black
The aim for the Comedy title does still seem strange (compared to what else is in the category). Even my wife thought it was odd, and she usually doesn't care about stuff like that.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
The ending with Rosa not giving a single fuck is probably the highlight of the whole series.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
I am on episode 6 of season 2, having binged through season 1. Love it. I am gonna go and say that this has the best cast ensemble of all TV-series that are still on air.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
The scene when she asked Piper why the others keep calling her Crazy Eyes or when she is not allowed to play Celebrity, but is confined to clock duty are heartbreaking.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
Not watching the first two, but it does have a better ensemble than TD. TD had two immensely strong leading performances, but it did not have much of an ensemble.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
LOL, this is such a better show than "True Detective" and honestly it's better than "Game of Thrones." And the weakest link in the cast is Taylor Schilling, who's still great.

The misogynist in Magnus will never allow him to love this show.

 Re: Orange is the New Black
Finally got around to Season 1. I watched the first three episodes months ago and while I liked it, it just didn't grab me. So I gave episode 4 a try a few days ago and ended up just finishing the season today. Somewhere in there the show gains momentum and doesn't really let up.
The show is far from perfect, but it's definitely a really good series overall. I'm invested and plan on starting Season 2 this week. I'm not sure I totally buy that Piper, a lesbian, realizes she's bisexual when she meets ... Jason Biggs. Just not a fan of him at all. He's OK here, but the role could have went to virtually anyone else. Although it's funny he keeps getting saddled with characters that do weird sexual things (the "edging" thing).

 Re: Orange is the New Black
Also, for a show that was deemed a frontrunner at last year's Emmys for Best Comedy, I can see now why it missed out. This couldn't be further from a funny show. It's light-hearted and has humorous moments for sure, but I never once had a physical laugh from the show.

 Re: Orange is the New Black

 Re: Orange is the New Black
I'm five episodes in. The Nicki episode was incredibly sad - Natasha Lyonne was great.
There's been very little focus on Piper this season so far. Not a bad thing necessarily, just interesting and I'm curious to see if that will change as the season progresses. I feel like she's barely been in the episodes I've seen thus far.
