Thanks for that!


Everyone should try an episode, new concept, really good show.

I watched the first episode earlier today. Enjoyed it. Idk why, but i have a thing for prison shows. I loved Prison Break.

[JimiThing1234]

On the 5th episode! It's good, it's definitely keeping me interested and I'm really attracted to Taylor Schilling haha. It's gotten great reviews so far too. I feel like I'll finish season 1 by the end of this weekend lol

[slygrooves2dmb2]

I'm going to start watching this tonight. Hopefully this Taylor chick is as hot as you say.

I think you'll like it sly!

[serenity now!]

Wife and I started watching this the other night. After 2 episodes, we're hooked. Good timing, too- there was definitely a lull in good shows to watch now.

I know a guy who writes for this show. He used to be a writer/producer on Weeds (the two shows have the same creator/showrunner). The promos for it have looked awful, like a Steel Magnolias set in prison-type of thing, so I've been on the fence about watching it. Lead actress is cute enough, but I don't think that's going to be the tipping point, as far as watching it goes. I might give it an episode or two to start, but this is sitting in a long line of shows that I haven't watched from last season yet, so it's not at the top of my list.

Never saw previews, just jumped right in, I really like it. Some of my favorite active Shows I include: game of thrones, walking dead, breaking bad, suits, hell on wheels, ray Donovan, homeland and this show has proven to be decent so far.

Taylor Schlling reminds me Portia DeRossi. Will have to give this show a view.

[WidespreadMule3]

Trailer didn't catch me. Seems like a bit of a "girl power" show. May check it out later if the good reviews keep rolling in.

I can see how a trailer might depict that, but I haven't seen that. On to episode 6!

[slygrooves2dmb2]

Going to start watching this after NFL Total Access is over. Getting close to the start of training camps so I want to know what's going on.

[DaveHead36]

Patty Mayonaise looks like hell

[JimiThing1234]

Ok you were right. This show is pretty good and that Taylor chic is pretty cute. I see a lot of familiar faces in this show though I can't place many of them. Going to keep watching now. I'm on Ep. 5 now.

Youre catching up! I'm on 7, knew you'd like t!

[slygrooves2dmb2]

Yeah, it's pretty interesting. I like how they do the flashbacks to show how people ended up in there. We should have a lot to talk about with this show on the way to Va. Beach.

Yeah we will!!

[coldengrey12]

Within the first few minutes, we have The Staples Singers' music and naked women.

Off to a good start.

[JimiThing1234]

Only thing I don't like is the intro music haha

Not just naked women but naked women making out in the shower.

But the story is good too. I'm 5 episodes in and very invested in all the main characters stories. I care about what happens and what has happened to them. To me that's the making of a good show.

Yeah but it's growing on me. I just noticed it's Regina Spektor. I knew the voice sounded familiar.

[coldengrey12]

Just finished the third episode and I'm enjoying it. The guard/inmate romance is a bit of a yawn, but the rest is good.

Glad to see Donna got work again. Biggs, too. I laughed at his American Pie reference.

Lot of faces from Weeds, which makes sense since Jenji Kohan created both - Pornstache guard, Piper's counselor and Natasha Lyonne all appeared on both. In fact, the source material is a book, otherwise I would've thought it was an idea Kohan spun out of Weeds.

Yeah that romance is weird. Hopefully they're going somewhere with that.
