As of the close of season 4, I'd say it's almost a year since Chapman arrived. They mentioned it was Autumn in one of the last episodes of the season and surely her 1 year anniversary will be the focus of an episode so that hasn't happened yet. Also, I just read that season 5 will take place over the course of 3 days so her release isn't gonna happen anytime soon.

I finished S4 tonight. That was probably the best season so far, or at least on par with season 1.

Those last few episodes were full of feels. Lolly In season 3 I thought she was really annoying but she ended up as one of my favourites.

Poussey Damn, that was hard to watch, especially since she was in there for practically nothing. I loved her final flashback in NYC.

So looks like Season 5 episodes 1 - 10 have been leaked online from some 'hacker', acquiring them now from the high-seas me mateys.

Why can't people just wait until June.

I shall be waiting until June. Got too much to watch in the meantime anyway.

I've been a Netflix subscriber for years but I've rarely watched anything bar the Marvel shows and OITNB and I've only kept the sub so my daughter can watch her cartoons but I'll most likely be getting shut of Netflix in favour of Now TV's kids package.

So yeah, come June I may not have a Netflix account

Started S5 tonight and its brilliant. Glad its back again

Only watched the first episode and it shows great promise

Watched the first 4 episodes of season 5 over the weekend and it's been excellent. Definitely keeping up the quality from season 4 thus far. I love the new format. It almost feels like 24. I hope the quality keeps up but I fear it won't be able to manage 13 episodes of this without a hiccup or two.

I think it's been pretty dull to be honest.

Nah it's okay. It's a comedy remember?
I enjoyed this a lot more than the other seasons, where you had backstory gooseberry fool that did nothing at all.

I find it really weird how these guards are being put through a horrendous ordeal but it's all portrayed in a kind of pantomime, silly fashion. Like we're all supposed to laugh at it. Like Caputo's been stuck in an outside toilet in the blistering heat with no water but we're supposed to laugh when people talk to him and walk away mid conversation. And the guard who had a stroke, although a banana split, is made fun of with sellotape keeping his face up.

It doesn't feel like successful black humour, is my point. The horror and the comedy just clashes horribly and I don't understand what they want me to feel.

And yeah, the bullshit hidden bunker and stuff like that just makes the whole thing seem ridiculous.

Anyone started the new season yet? Ill start watching this week

Watched and finsihed, enjoyed it alot

On par or better than the previous episode?

2 left to go. Such a good season, probably my favourite so far

Yeah, I've got two left to go, too.

I'm not sure it's better than season 1 but it's definitely an improvement on the riot series.

The riot was so boring. Glad they went in a different direction

Just finished season 6. Really enjoyed this season with all the new characters, new jail and new back storylines of current characters. Madison/Badison is a pretty funny character. Don't like those old sisters though...they were pretty depressing. Piper was pretty boring this season...funny how she was the main character to begin though.

Overall this is one of the best seasons imo.

Still not gonna bother. Season 5 was so dog gooseberry fool it's killed any interest I had at all.

Yep. Ive finished it too and it is certainly one of the better seasons.
