I LOVED this show. I feel like it just became so trendy to love it for a while that I didn't even WANT to like it, but I did. I am also so sad I watched the end of the first season.!!!! I am totally a binge watcher when it comes to TV shows, and at the end if I really like the show I almost feel lonely without the characters.
I feel like the series is clever, and funny, and crazy, and somehow real at the same time. I've never been to prison but I can see a lot of this kind of thing actually happening LOL. And I liked the treatment of different kinds of Queer issues in the show. |

Parker, not dissing you about Big Boo, just amused that Butches seem to often not see each other. lmao.

I watched the entire season in 3 days
 For a day or so, someone had uploaded all the episodes to Youtube. Well, they got taken down. Of course I had to resort to signing up for Netflix's trial period and then canceled as soon as I finished!! |

For the record though, my not adding her to the poll had nothing to do with me not seeing her or not seeing her as a butch - Lea DeLaria being on the show was one of the first things I noted about it! But she was a minor character (we didnt see her a ton and they didnt show us her back story) and I figured if I started adding minor characters to the show, I would have to add ALL the characters - and there were over 25 of them! |

LMAO about Big Boo, minor character...grumble...Lol.
Ha, ank! You and Pinkie can both be OITNB studs!! Love me some Netflix in general btw. OK, so can we discuss favorite scenes, or is that spoilerish? I think I'm about to watch it all again and memorize lines. Lol.

Good gawd, I watched the entire season in a day and a half. Then watched it again lol I'm looking forward to season 2 but I'm thoroughly disappointed that Alex will be playing such a minimal role.
p.s. love Big Boo, but love Lea DeLaria anyway lol |

I hear ya!
I understand that time frame! Really though I had never heard of OITB until this thread. So I had to go look into it. I am also wondering why the media has not put this out there in a big way? Or am I that removed from social media?? I think it is a great show, characters, and the REAL dig down deep emotional stuff reflecting back to one's self. This is not just some hokey prison show, it stands all on its own! Can't wait for season 2!!

If you'll notice, there are 40 voters (and 67 votes cast) - so for example, Crazy Eyes is at 50% because she has 20 votes, which is half of those 40 people who voted in the poll. Nicki is 10% because 4 out of the 40 people who voted, voted for her. Does that make sense? In other polls, where you can only vote once (i.e., the veteran thread), the percentages would add up to 100%. |

I love OITNB!!! Saw Alix and first was kinda "Ehh" because I could only see her in "That 70s Show" but then I was like "Okay.. Pretty hot for a femme [or however she would ID]!"
 Piper, well, no. That's a whole big mess I wouldn't want any part in! Nicki is pretty rawr! but, honestly? I think she would be too forward/agressive for me. *shrug* Crazy Eyes is total crazy but it really struck a chord deep inside when she asked Piper why people call her Crazy Eyes. I totally wanted to hug her!    Big Boo? Psh, you know if you were her girl she'd totally take care of you [possibly in a controlling, slightly posessive and insanely jealous way..but still..] K, I might be kinda crushing on Big Boo! Must be the seemingly bad boi attitude she has going on. Poussey [did I remember that correctly??] would just be a femme friend for me! I could def see Red being my prison mother LOL She reminds me of my friend's German mother - brutally honest, but once she adopts you, you're in for life.  |

I find it entertaining that what was pulled out of my post earlier is "how pussy tastes", which had nothing to do with the core of my post. It is interesting that most of those who replied to my post and find it ok for the references made to be funny and acceptable, are also the same who were not so long ago in the Butch Cock and Old Fashion/Old School threads criticizing the butches for their ideas and discussion about the way they use, feel about, and embrace their butch cock. At that time, it was "horrible" and "dewomanizing" and "degrading towards women" ex: I love when a woman takes my butch cock in her mouth and sucks it. Yet, it is perfectly acceptable for the butches on this show to talk about women in this fashion and it is now considered comedy.

I did enjoy the first few episodes....although, it's a bit too tame for my taste.
Why can't they just create a female version of Oz? |

I'll be the FIRST to admit that I was a HUGE fan of OZ!! And seriously... a HUGE fan. But OISTNB is based on the book... Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison by Piper Kerman It's based on the experiences of a woman being in prison and specifically a privileged white woman. She's awkward, stumbles, fuck ups CONSTANTLY and learns something about women of all different class, cultures, color, sexuality, abuse, history of drugs, mental health, physical health... the LIST goes on and on. THAT'S FABULOUS!!! There isn't one damn thing w/this many stories of making women visible anywhere else. The stories of each character that slowly pulls you in and has you ROOT for them individually is what makes you wonder who are we going to learn about NEXT??? So as MUCH as I loved OZ... the stories of women is much more fascinating and fun for me personally. And the show is damn funny. lol!

I am curious as to what story lines people loved the most - doesnt matter if it is couple related or something like what Miss Claudette went through, or Red and her kitchen.
What were your favorite story lines? |
