This is the new Netflix original. I love what Netflix is doing. House of Cards was so great, and Arrested Development's revival was great. Hemlock Grove was a miss but I like that they tried out horror. I think those are the only three exclusive shows until this one.

ANYWAY, I heard this was great. It's about a newly engaged woman who ends up having to serve 15 months in prison because of something she got caught up in ten years ago. Seems to delve pretty deep into the prison system.

I watched episode one just now and liked it a good amount. All of the prisoners feel very real,, I liked the characters. I read that it takes about four episodes for the show to really hit its stride so I'm looking forward to that. I'll keep watching

All the episodes were available at once on Netflix just like the rest of their originals. It's from the creator of Weeds and you can tell. Has the same vibe as very early Weeds, which I loved. You guys should watch!

It's a fantastic show. I watched it all over the last weekend and I loved it. I only watched Hemlock Grove before this but I think Netflix definitely can thrive with original content.

What'd you think of Hemlock Grove? I didn't think it was very good but for some reason I watched it all. I think I was just hoping that it would get better

It was okay. I wasn't really impressed but I could tell a lot of effort was put into it.

Nofo and I watched Hemlock Grove together but I couldn't finish it. The acting sucked haha.

I'll definitely look into watching this, and based on the Emmy nominations House of Cards is pretty fantastic as well.

Yeah the acting was atrocious

House of Cards was so great. I'm glad it got Emmy noms. Can't wait for a second season of that

I haven't started Orange is the New Black yet, but I've heard good things about it and my mom just started watching it tonight.

Episode two was also good. The ending was such a Weeds ending

Watching the first ep now. Figured I'd try it since I'm not currently watching anything. Man there's a lot of tits on this show so far. Not that I'm complaining.

Jason Biggs still exists?

haha Jason Biggs is pretty solid on the show. He does a fairly good job

I watched through episode five last night. I'm liking it more and more. Every male character is such a dick. Pornstache is great. It took me a few to realize that he's played by NICK from The Wire. He's good in this

I like how each episode focuses on a different prisoner and starts to show you how they ended up in there. All the characters are pretty good

Onto Ep 7. Fucking hooked on this show, damn you people.

Agreed about the back stories. That's one of the things I look forward to each new show. I usually haaaate flashback sequences sprinkled in the middle of shows cause of how out of place they can be, but they really work here.

Healey (however you spell it) was my favorite. I'm sad to see him turning into a dick now :(
