It's great that the one character on the show who ISN'T a crumbling mess is the organized criminal.<br /><br />Piper is one of my favorite oitnb characters. She's a terrible person, yes, but she's interesting. Alex, however, is hella boring.Aaron Cameron Dawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806396766757126412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-31564251787444450142015-06-24T06:48:52.511-05:002015-06-24T06:48:52.511-05:00I hate Kitsch and I'm still watching.

That sequence could serve as a cautionary tale. <br /><br />I really dug it. It's just missing McConaughey. Otherwise, the dark, Gothic storytelling was there. I'm in. Justin Lin did a good job as director here as well. I'm interested to see what he can pull off away from those Fast Furious spectacles. <br /><br />Veep lost its luster a bit for me over the past couple seasons. I loved the first season. I check out a lot watching it lately. <br /><br />My wife burned through the new Orange is the New Black in like two days. She loved it. It's another one that just doesn't fully work for me. <br /><br />Good post! I love that you're such a TV junkie. My wife and I hardly ever watch movies together, but we watch TV series at all times.

Each of the four main characters are hella interesting.<br /><br />I look forward to more discussion on OITNB. If you liked the opener, you are going to adore the rest of the season.

I agree that she will be back as Veep. Can't wait to hear "Sue, did the President call?" once again. <br /><br />I liked True Detective premiere. It was interesting, however hardly anything makes much sense yet. Farrell was great thoughNikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10302904519424893854noreply@blogger.com
