Orange is the New Black.... Best Show Ever.

Netflix has impressed me once more, damn them.  I love watching whole seasons of a show at a time, I apparently need to be instantly gratified and simply cannot wait a mere seven days to see what happens.  I think I have pretty much watched all of the good movies, most of the television shows, and now I am hooked on Orange is the new black. Jengi Kohan wrote it so of course I knew I would be a fan. She wrote Weeds, just in case you didn't know.  I was a big fan of Weeds and sad to see it go.  Now I know that this show is the reason, so I am over my anger of no more Weeds.
 Season one was amazing, I am in awe at the characters and the way they are personified in such a different yet empathetic way. I started season two last night and the first episode scared me when they moved Piper.  I thought they we're going with a whole new character plot and introducing new people and if so, I don't think I would watch.  Thankfully episode one ended with a BAM moment, big shocker there and now Piper is back with the characters that I fell in love with.  Red is getting her attitude back, crazy eyes is growing a pair, Piper is kinda scary now and my favorite part is they are going back in time and showing each character as a child and how they got to where they are now, with some shockers along the way.  I am impressed and hooked. It's a Netflix original series so you might want to go ahead and pay that $7.99 a month. The show itself is worth that but there are also some really good independent movies that are really good as well.
