I can see this happening IRL. She's not cheating with a stranger...she cheated with someone she was truly in love with.


I'm talking about ridiculously stupid, literally EVERY decision she makes in the show is. Or, how every character is a bad Cliché of what real prison life would be like. Or, even how the prison itself, it completely unrealistic and the people running it are beyond moronic...

Is this show suppose to be realistic? Sometimes I don't know if the show is trying to be realistic or just be a very dark comedy.

I didn't say it was, I'm just saying that there are so many things wrong with this show that makes angry. I watched Season 1, gave it a chance. Will NOT be watching season 2. Every character on the show basically makes me want to find the writers and punch them in the face or, blow my brains out. I haven't decided yet.

Never before have I watched a show with SO MANY idiotic moments in every scene of every episode.

1) I find it ironic that show is called "Orange is the new black" and Donna's hair was orange on That 70's Show and is now black in this one

2) I liked the "abortion dilemma" between the guard and that Mexican chick. It was very cleverly crafted to pit some strong forces against each other and make it a tough choice.

It was definitely one of the more interesting story lines in the show. And I felt for the guard because he has that idiot mexican chick's mom interfering.

Hence why I would never watch reality tv. I expected more from a series.

I loved this show, and can't wait for the second season.

I've recommended it to 4 other people so far, all of which have enjoyed it.
