“It’s very different heah. These girls are psychos,” Lorna says in the Season 6 trailer for Orange Is the New Black.

And now, a glimpse into a possible future where Netflix shows start cross-pollinating in ways that don’t make a lot of sense but are pretty cute to watch.

In its infancy, Orange Is the New Black was the story of Piper Chapman, a narcissistic white woman thrown into a prison complex that seemingly erased privilege.

Here is a bad idea: to celebrate the return of Orange Is the New Black, a restaurant in Singapore, in an apparent partnership with Netflix, is doing a pop-up “prison dining experience.” That means “home-cooked prison grub” served in a jail-like cafeteria setting. Piper Kerman, who wrote the book the show is based on…
Netflix has finally released some data about how much its members binge on certain programs.
Coming to Netflix: A series loosely based upon the fascinating 1980s phenomenon of the TV show G.L.O.W., Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, which combined women’s wrestling with comedy skits and an aesthetic sensibility that can only be described as wildly specific. It was, after all, the ’80s.

Garden rose of our hearts Uzo Aduba continues to dazzle with the power of her screen presence while simultaneously charming us all to death. At last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards she won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series — and who was there to escort her? Her high school…
Much of television is written by people who grew up, or at least who have lived the majority of their lives, in a big city—often New York or Los Angeles. For that reason, characters who are culturally not from one of those places are at risk of getting written in broad strokes, becoming caricatures of whatever culture…
