Oh wow – Jenji Kohan and Kate Mulgrew? I’ll check that out – and will stop following until then, in case of spoilers. Thanks! ;)

I saw the previews, was interested and then I forgot all about it. Thanks for reminding me. I’m gonna add it to my queue now.

Kate Mulgrew is definitely one of the best things about this series, and no more will I say. Pachy is no spoiler. ;-)

No! But I did watch The Killing. Oh my word, I was glued to my screen for most of the 25 hours of it. (OK, not quite glued but just about!).

@lornalove The first few seasons of The Killing were pretty good. The case got dragged out a little too long but the chemistry between the 2 main characters is what made it worth watching. I actually halfway figured out who was involved in Rosie Larson’s murder the first few episodes. I won’t say anymore because I don’t want to spoil it.

The third season is pretty good too but it’s different without the Larson’s and the councilman.

@flip86 So nice that someone else watched it. I found the acting amazing did you? It was so addicting. I haven’t started watching the 3rd season I am a little afraid to, due to my addictive behavior with the last 2 seasons.

Mrs. Apple and I watched the first two ‘Orange’ episodes, and think it is good enough to keep watching. Some critics don’t like it much, but as the saying goes, “Nobody ever erected a statue to honor a critic”.

Conversely, we stayed with the first three episodes of that one where the high school kid is a werewolf, and decided that it was dumb enough to abandon…

Interesting factoid about the series I just stumbled upon.

Katniss's avatar

I watched the whole series last week!! I CANNOT wait for season 2!!
I’m dying to know what’s going to happen to Piper.

Yo, Pachy. Just clicked your ‘factoid’ and Mrs. Apple and I were amazed.

“Interesting”, indeed !

Thanks, man….

Laverne Cox is absolutely gorgeous.

I loved it!

@Leanne1986 Right? I CANNOT wait for season 2.

My older siblings recently recommended this show. I just finished watching Season 1 and 2 over three days. It’s good to read that Alex will be a regular in Season 3. The love/hate relationship between Piper and her is well played.
