Orange is the New Black

New Netflix Original series staring [strike]Captain Janeway[/strike] Kate Mulgrew. :)

Comes out July 11th!

Makes me remember cell block H.

She's scary in this

Jason Biggs is in this? Then this is going to be GOOD. =3

Natasha Lyonne and Laura Prepon are in this? :silly:
Such a strange cast.

Not sure if I can do another "women in prison" show.

In Australia we just had Wentworth, which turned out to be a pretty great remake of Prisoner/Cell Block H.

But this looks interesting. Love Kate Mulgrew, and loved Jenji Kohan's Weeds for a while there. Will have to track it down/wait for the DVDs.

I started watching it last night. Have about 15 minutes left of the first episode but it looks like it is going to be good!

Just recently started watching this! I wouldn't call it my personal favorite, but now that I've seen the first few episodes I'll more than likely watch the rest :)

I still haven't seen the show, but thought this article might interest a few people.
Transgender Characters Get a Transformative Moment.

The article is a little lean, but includes an interview with Laverne Cox (who plays Sophia). Only skimmed it out of fear of spoilers, but Orange is the New Black just shot up to "must see" for me.

One question, should I binge watch or pace out the episodes a bit?
