I haven't been watching this show, but just found out an old friend of mine has been an extra in many of the prison scenes - I'll have to start watching, but I hate coming in at the middle of a series!

Watched the first episode last night before going to sleep. Can't wait to see the rest. There's a new counselor character, and the return of another. SHould be interesting.

cody, no need to come in in the middle, you can watch from the first season! In fact, last week, I went back and started watching season 2 again in order to prep for the release of season 3.

I should have done that. Already in the first episode there were details I was fuzzy on..

That's what I did with Downton Abbey (didn't start that one until the 3rd season, too)....guess I have some summer catch-up viewing to do!

1. So glad Vause is back.

2. Ruby Rose is an interesting addition, looking forward to her character's backstory.

3. Daya's pregnancy has gone on for years. Years.

4. Hollaback Bennett: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pc946xclAS8

5. Mary Steenbergen!

6. Drama class has some of the best scenes of the show.

7. “It’s not just sex. It’s love. It’s two people connecting. With four other people. And aliens.”

Who is the new inmate with the super short white blond hair and taped glasses that keeps freaking out Alex? I know the actor, but can't place her and it is making me crazy!

Lolly is Lori Petty, who was in A League of Their Own. I read somewhere that Ruby Rose has a tattoo of her in Tank Girl.

Best moment so far (I'm in ep. 3): the book funeral. "Great Expectations. The BFG. The dictionary, man! All the David Sedarises…Sedari?...And let's hear it for the Jonathans...Swift, Franzen....”

Thank you j_r!! It's been driving me crazy all day!

Just finished watching season 3. Meh, a bit disappointing. I guess I expected more. Some of the flashbacks were interesting, however, this could have been shown more in season 1 and 2. Hoping season 4 is better.

For a much darker look at women in prison, OITNB fans might want to check out Wentworth on Netflix.
