That’s right. I am absolutely OBSESSED with Netflix’s new original series, Orange is the New Black.
Did you know that Creator Jenji Kohan, who also created Weeds, adopted the story from the memoir of Piper Kerman? (Yes, a real person!) Check out Buzzfeed’s article for more awesome facts!
Now, some unsettling rumor has been weaving in and out of the web today regarding Laura Prepon, who plays the very sexy Alex Vause. It has been implied that Prepon will not be returning as a regular in the next season. And yet, E!Online has lifted my spirits in reporting that Netflix has claimed this news to be “inaccurate.”
So, OITNB fans:
How crazy was that final episode? (Let’s not spoil it for those catching up.)
Waiting for Season 2 feels like a prison sentence already…
I can’t think of any other show in history that had this strong of an ensemble female cast. Bravo.
Also, I find the parallel to “Weeds” very interesting: upper middle class white woman suddenly loses everything and is forced to adapt to cope with new situation/surroundings.
Food for thought.
Absolutely!
That would be an interesting topic for discussion:
