I finished season 4 today and I hated it! I disliked last season too so unfortunately that's it for me...I'm done with this show.

I loved and hated the last 4 or 5 episodes.
I cried.
I can't believe we have to wait a year to find out what happens

I thought it was one of the best seasons so far. I heard Piper Kerman (the real Piper Chapman) interviewed on NPR a few months ago, and she talked about what was real from the show and what was creative licensing. It made this season so fun for me to watch.

I'm done watching. Ok, what just happened? I feel like the events of the last 2 shows are so out of place with the others. And that there was a political agenda with Poussey's death. But it sure did make me cry! And what was up with Daya? That just seems so out of character for her. She hangs out in the spa one day with some sketchy girls and now she's all gangsta? Are we supposed to think it's postpartum stress?

I am on episode 4. So far I am loving Cindy. When her roommate said, "are you really going there?" And she said "I went there, bought the house, moved in, and now am remodeling the kitchen!". I was cracking up and rewatched it a few times lol. I am not enjoying Pipers smug 'gangsta with an a' attitude so far.

I'm into episode 4 now. It's so good. I'm not sure about the celebrity storyline and I think there are too many new people this season. But the rest of it is just brilliant. And the song at the end of episode 2 LOL. i LOVED the song....

I finished last night and was pretty shocked.
I started out the season excited it was back, got irritated as hell with Piper again and really just started not liking it at all mostly because of her and started thinking this would be my last season watching. I don't like Voss much either.
But there are characters that I love and wanted to see it through so I did, and I am so glad! I hate cliffhangers, but what are you gonna do? That's how the reel you back in. But I thought the last 3 episodes were really good.
My hear broke so many times this season: Sophia, Crazy Eyes, Washington, Mr. Healy, Humps making the cute hispanic girl (cannot remember her name) do what he made her do, LOLLY. OMG Lolly. And boy Tastee when Poussey died. That actress did an amazing job - I could truly feel her grief. I cried so much. And I feel awful for Bayley too, it really was an accident and Im worried for his character. What the hell, Daya? Dayum.
Cindy has got the best lines, no doubt. She is so funny. I love the relationship between Boo and Pentsatucky (Sp?)
ETA: Oh and I have to say that I really like Caputo. I can't wait til he kicks Linda to the curb.

Okay, so since a huge spoiler was posted already, I'm going to be less vague with my post.
Why did Healy go off the deep end when he did? He wasn't even involved in the guard murder, so why did that set him off?
And I liked Caputo all the way until the end of the last episode. It does seem like he is trying so hard to do right by the women, and then to get to the press conference and not even say her name?
And you have a race problem going on the whole series, then boom ~ we work together, then boom ~ we're against each other again. It really feels like they wrote whatever they wanted to and it didn't matter whether it fit the storyline or not.

It was too much to bear. We saw this season why he became a social worker. I think he was despairing of his life's work ever making a real difference.

SPOILERS BELOW:
I finished and really liked this season. It was much darker than other seasons, but it's a show about prison so that was expected. So much social commentary that just resonated with me...poor Lollie and the need for better mental healthcare in this country, same thing with Crazy Eyes, and then there's Poussey. Her crimes were rather petty (would someone actually be sent to prison for trespassing and possession of a small amount of weed?) and now she's gone. So many other things that stirred my soul, and I found it just heartbreaking. I know it's fictional, but I also know that it's somebody's real story.

Just finished Season 4 last night. So sad! DD and I teared up several times. We do have a couple of questions though...
(Stop here if you don't want a Spoiler...)
What happened to Daya's baby daddy? He just seemed to disappear.
We found it kind of creepy that Washington, in the "flashback" to her sitting on the riverbank, turns and looks straight at the camera and smiles (this was after we already knew she was dead). What was that all about?

I just finished it today (home on a sick day). It was sad but then I went reading some articles about the actor and writers and their thoughts and off kind of bugged me. They were modeling Washington's story on black lives matter and one of the statements was "would the guard have kept her down for so long if she had been white?" I don't think that was fair at all - I felt like crazy eyes was attacking him and he was trying to keep Washington from also stacking him and was overwhelmed and doing the best he could. Poor Bailey- I felt awful for him. And Taystee, too. I felt line the black lives matter think was more shown by Caputo failing to mention washingtons name as the inmate killed.
For the rest of the season, I was glad to see Nikki back- I like her. I hate gangsta piper so I'm Glad that seems to be over. Piper is pretty much my least favorite character so I enjoyed seeing lots of characters this season- anything to get the attention off her.

...I felt line the black lives matter think was more shown by Caputo failing to mention washingtons name as the inmate killed... I thought that Caputo didn't mention her by name because he hadn't contacted her parents yet? BTW, I cried ugly-tears when Norma was rocking and singing to Washington's girlfriend. So touching.

No, right before he spoke he went outside and called her dad on his cell phone. He says, "no, she is not ok..." I didn't think Caputo didn't mention her because black lives don't matter but because he was focused on not throwing Bailey to the wolves but he should hve mentioned her by name. I also was very moved by Norma singing and rocking Brooke. I thought she was mute- so what was that about?!

It really feels like they wrote whatever they wanted to and it didn't matter whether it fit the storyline or not. Lolly had told him about the guard being murdered and he thought it was just her delusions and it looks like he snapped when he realized she told him the truth. It wasn't about the murder, but about the way the mentally ill are treated. He let her down by not considering her story to be true. I hate the way Healy's story has evolved and really hated the last few episodes. I hate the way Caputo has no authority over the guards, although I do have a sweet spot for Caputo (yeah for passing on the cell phone and photo of Burset). There are enough characters that I love still that I'll watch next season but I'm not loving this season at all.

Been curious about that relationship since we saw her back story.

My hubby just pointed out the whole season changed when Crazy eyes and Kukudieo were in the woods. That rejection changed everyone's lives. And really season three when Suzanne didn't meet her in the closet is the moment could be the moment too.
Yea we analyze and talk about the show a bit around here.

it wasn't what i expected but i really liked this season. There was so much i didn't want to see, you know what i mean? Really grew to hate the two main guards, feel for Caputo , and of course feel for all the women (at various levels). It was nice to see the one woman get out, and see a little of how she struggles when she gets back to the outside.
