The new season (5) hits Netflix June 9th!
If you're like me, it's time to rewatch a bit of last season to remember where they left off.

Yup. I'll need a refresher. I got a message from Netflix that for whatever reason I am able to start watching the new season as of yesterday. I'm unprepared.

I got an email from Netflix too. All that I can watch is a very short trailer, so far.

Yes, it was a little bait & switch-y, IMO.
Here's what it read:
Rewarding good behavior isn't only for inmates. It's also for patient fans like you. Season 5 arrives on June 9th, but you don't have to wait any longer to enjoy this exclusive footage from inside Litchfield Penitentiary.*
In reality it was a 1 minute clip.

There is a 3 or 4 minute recap of season 4 which was helpful. I know what I'll be doing tonight!

I just watched the first episode. I kinda needed that refresher.

I've just watched the first episode too. Boy was it intense! I'm taking a break before moving on to E2, just to catch my breath. If it continues like this, I'm going to struggle to binge.

I'm on episode five and still after five seasons, I continue to hate Alex and Piper.

I'm through episode 11 and I am so sick of Suzanne (Crazy Eyes) and her craziness. I am surprised nobody holds her at all responsible for Poussey's death since she is the reason she got squashed.

Just starting E7 this morning. It's been a good season so far, in my opinion.
I loved Boo (I think that's her name) all dressed up in the suit, playing first the game show host and then lawyer.

I've watched 5 or 6 episodes. So far it's been good.
My favorite inmate is Black Cindy. She says some funny shit! Actually, I like that whole group, Cindy, Tastee, the Muslim girl and Jennae (?).
This is the first season I've actually not liked Alex. I can't stand SoSo (? Pousseys girlfriend). She just needs to be released.
Ugh, I have so much to do today but all I want to do is binge OITNB!

Piscatella is a jerk.

I'm gonna start episode 7 tonight. I'm really enjoying this season.
I actually enjoy the fact that the Alex and Piper storyline is being eclipsed by everything else.
I can't wait to see Piscatella go down in flames.
And I really hate Caputo's girlfriend. What a terrible, terrible person.

Piper is one of the most boring characters on this show. I am so over her storyline. I can't wait to see what happens with Judy King. I also loved seeing Frida's backstory. Her little hideout is amazing.

I ended up finishing it and I really enjoyed it, I hated to see it end. They leave it on an exciting note so now I can't wait until the next season.

I think this is one of the best storylines. Mental illness and lack of treatment is a huge problem in prisons. As annoying as she is, I'm glad they chose to have her character go down this road. |

I just finished this season and I'm left astounded by Uzo Aduba's performance. She was phenomenal. It is heartbreaking to think of how many Crazy Eyes cycle through the prison system without proper treatment. |

I thought I would get bored when I heard the entire season covers 3 or 4 days. But it was good. Not in a OMG what is going to happen next. But in really excellent story telling. I really liked Alison I thought she added a lot to this season I can't wait to learn more of her back story. I was thrilled that we had less of Piper and Alex.. they can let them out for all I care. |
