Orange New Black - SPOILER thread

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Just wondered what you thought about your impression that there was a guard who was the most humane person in the show, after you got all the way through season 2.

And now that I think about it, I am not even sure exactly who you meant... Healy? Because he started out seemingly nice and ended up being a monster. The stupid guard putting up with all the shit from his pregnant girlfriend? He's a fucking idiot.

I even liked Pornstache a little more than him, after his brief return.

SHOT.

I think the message of the show is that everyone is awful. Actually, that's unfair. How about that everyone makes mistakes, and perhaps the punishment doesn't always fit the crime.

I was talking about the guy with one leg. While the story line put him in a bad situation, was he really a bad guy? He did try and turn himself in, plus let's not forget that the guy who took the fall was a complete scumbag who has a girl's death on his hands.

I will miss Pornstache.

The ending for Vee was just hilarious.

I think the assistant warden was the only "major role" chick who came on the show and left without us ever seeing her tits.

I like one-leg and overall he's a good guy, but he's certainly had his few moments of scumbaggery. But much better than pornstache, who was a total douche. Although it's slightly touching that the last thing he did on the way out was declare he would do right by preggers and "his" baby; that's nice.

I liked the girl guard. I'm sad she was fired. But somehow I think we haven't seen the last of her. Nun-hater guard is actually pretty good, if only he weren't such a push-over. And as bitchy as the old battleaxe lady guard is, she's probably the most likely to do the right thing in any given situation, so I respect her.

Best ending to a season ever, IMO. "Oh! Oh! Hit her. HIT! HER! ... Holy shit, she's going to do it! Fucking A!"
