I've never watched the show, but it does seem interesting. When I first saw it advertised it looked like another play on one of those reality TV shows that I can't stand to watch. Seems like it's not like that though...is it worth watching?

Yes, 100%. I started watching last year a month before season 3, watched 2 seasons in a weekend

When the C.O. tried to force Ramos to eat the flies or the baby... animal thing I can't remember, and then put the gun to her head. It gets worse doesn't it?

I was honestly retching at that. The Boy was really worried I might actually be sick on him. I'm so so sensitive to people eating disgusting things...

Yeah, that was absolutely disgusting. I feel so bad for her.

 

1.  I hate the c.o.'s

2. The molly scene was hilarious.

Someone on fb spoiled the ending for me. I'm really angry. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? And she just goes "don't shoot the messenger" UM you're lucky I'm not about to shank the messenger.

The ending, or the episode before the ending? Because I'd say episode 12 is a bigger spoiler than the finale, weirdly. (Although it's entirely reliant on the events of 12)

It was basically a post saying RIP Poussey so I'm not sure if that's the one you're talking about.

Is it just me, or is season 4 so much darker than the previous seasons?

This is the problem with binging. We hurt ourselves in the long run.

Agreed, for me that's because (don't read until you've finished the season)

It was all a bit too real compared to previous seasons. Especially season 3 which was so driven by Piper's underwear business which was a very light storyline for the most part.

The majority of the conflict was external to the inmates. Sure we had the neo-nazis against everyone else (which was weirdly comedic) and Maria v Piper but neither of those plotlines were carrying the season. Ultimately it was the damning effect of budget cuts on quality of life and prison brutality, both of which are hard to watch when you know there's a point being made.

Similarly, Poussey's death and the aftermath had such clear allusions to events like Ferguson - of course that's going to be tougher to watch when you know that's been plenty of people's real lives/deaths.

I actually found the toughest bit of the whole season the last episode when the MCC are brainstorming ways to spin Poussey's death for the media - questioning whether she was violent, digging through her past. Partly because I work in PR, so I can imagine that happening exactly, but also the heartbreak of knowing that there are police forces who almost certainly had those conversations for weeks after similar incidents.
