It's been confirmed that Nikki will have a flashback episode for season 3. Natasha Lyonne was spotted shooting scenes in Queens a few days ago.

I love it when people give summaries of episodes for a show we've all presumably been watching, as if that's helping me watch it in some way.
This was okay. 7/10. Kind of contrived and dumb, but okay. |

Loved series 2 of OiTNB. I felt it wasn't as instant as the first series, but really enjoyed it altogether. Great to see some of the other characters' back-stories being explored. I'll put the rest in spoilers, just in case!

Overall, I thought it was a great season. Rarely does a show strike the perfect balance between humour, drama and emotion so perfectly. The writing is superb and the performances are among the best of any TV show out there. |

Just finished season 2. Really enjoyed it especially the second half.Like others,Lorna has become my favourite as I think she is one of the few nice characters in the series along with Sophia,So So,the nun and the yoga teacher.I liked Piper at the start of season 1 but I don't like how prison has changed her.

Just finished episode 6 of this season, not enjoying it as much as season 1... Really missing Alex, and I just feel like the plot has loosened so much more this season which I don't like, It's almost like a prison soap now with so many characters just living through their prison lives. I was never a fan of Piper but I feel like it needs a lead character for the show to work, and I'm losing motivation to finish this season.

I was mixed on the first six episodes of season 2, but the second half really heats up and you get an idea of where it is going to go.

Watching series 2 now, I think I'm 5 or 6 episodes in, but I'm finding it a bit of a chore to watch. The first series wasn't great, certainly no Oz, but it was watchable. But the second series seems to have less Piper in it, and more backstories for characters who I do not care about at all. I'm not sure how much longer I can be bothered to keep watching it now.
The plotlines of the episodes are just not interesting (e.g. a fingering competition between the big haired one and the fat, butch one). In fact I'd say in general very little happens in an episode, and maybe five minutes of it features Piper, who has had a personality transplant (always an insult to the viewer). I couldn't even tell you what happened in the last episode I watched yesterday night was. I think maybe the showers for the Latinas had some brown water... I think this was maybe more a show for women to begin with, but it's just mind-numbingly boring now. None of the characters are interesting, I do not care what happens to any of them, and the plots are boring with nothing happening. |

OK so I carried on watching it. It really picks up in the second half, and I'm glad I watched it to the end. The final episode is great.

Ok I am late to the party, but I finished series two yesterday. I love the show. A quick question, what is Dya in for? Is it for being involved with her mum's little drug factory?
And, I dunno if it's been mentioned or if it's just me but, does Taylor Schilling look the spitting image of Katy Perry? Because it's all I see when she's on screen! |
