This show really was such a perfect vehicle to unleash her acting talents.

I loved Tulip's begrudging 'the art thing, I'll fix it' and Emily's ensuing stupefied expression - cut to later, Tulip aggressively trying to fix whatever the heck that art thing was. I think I need to see more scenes with these two.

That's fair but I should've been more specific - I meant the photo they managed to get of Cindy chasing Judy King, that shot had me in stitches!

You and me both. For a moment there, I really thought they were going to have Morello cheat on Vincent with Nicky this season given all the lampshading over her paranoia he is cheating on her and it turns out she will be the one guilty of it, so I am impressed Morello stuck to her guns on that one…next season remains…

Which one of her clones would you rather see in Litchfield? I think Alison would be pretty hilarious but then again, Helena would be an absolute riot.

Thank you so much, I honestly need to do a rewatch of all the seasons. I agree with all that and watching Nicky when she's using is hard because it does change her character and how she treats her inmates, especially Morello in this season, which I guess is true to life which makes it all the more frustrating to…

Isn't Nicky a lesbian? She seemed to shut down that notion pretty hard. I agree about Luschek, I only really dislike him because of how he's an enabler for Nicky's drug use but he's one of the few remaining old guards around so I hope he stays.

Yes, Alex's scenes with Lolly probably became my favourite pairing of the season. This season's MVP pairing!

I'm really curious where they're going to go with that cliffhanger. I doubt she'll actually shoot him but perhaps that's the point, raising that ambiguity with her character. I hope the television crew cameras capture some of the riot somehow.

I was also confused because I couldn't remember their relationship from earlier seasons (it's been a while) so doing some light digging, the actresses seem to think that they love each other and Vinnie is just transient. They also set up some dialogue this season that suggested that Morello blamed Nicky for being…

That scene was hard to watch because I really like Nicky and Morello both individually and together. It's only small consolation that when Morello verbally said no, that Nicky did back off, but man I was just thinking 'no Nicky no stop that, consent!'

There appears to be a slight disconnect with what the show portrayed and what the cast and D&D are saying about all of this - however, this is heavily dependent on how much stock you put in those to be legitimate and not trolling efforts etc etc. Sophie Turner in particular recently came out with a few interviews and…

Touché ;)

Wiley said in her interview that it mirrored their earlier scene on a bed when Poussey tried to kiss Taystee.

It was a very meta moment, hilariously.

From the article that the review linked, it seems that Wiley kept the secret well and only told the actresses who play Taystee and Suzanne a little bit before the rest found out via scripts.

I was fist pumping so hard during that scene, this is all I've wanted! The inmates banding together forgetting their stupid racial issues and forming some kind of tenuous solidarity to make a stand. That meeting and the cafeteria scene were my highlights of the season (I've finished it since I couldn't not see the…

I was also accidentally spoiled for this so I spent the whole season with it at the back of mind wondering when and how it was going to happen - I managed to remain unspoiled for those aspects at least. I do wonder what it would have felt like watching it, not knowing, but either way you cut it, it was still brutal…

They are the words I was looking for but didn't think of! Yes she was so earnest and sincere and Nicky's "touche" was really sweet.

When they found her in her 'time machine', seeing her clutching the potato to her head, desperately trying to go back (or forward) in time, just broke my heart.
