Orange is the New Black

If you have not seen the series Orange is the New Black, do not start. That is if you like this type of movie.
I'd always wanted to see this show but it was an HBO exclusive and I didn't have HBO. So last year I bought season 1 and 2 from Amazon. The first episode I watched was on an airplane. Luckily I was in a window seat and I could keep turning the screen toward the window. I thought I was watching some type of porn film. But after that first episode, I was hooked. I must have been going someplace extremely interesting, because I only watch the episodes while on the plane. When I got home, I finished seasons 1 and 2. I searched all over the internet for season 3 and found the only way I could watch it was to get Netflix. Then I heard that season 4 was premiering June 17 - only on Netflix. Well I couldn't watch season 4 without having watched season 3, so I quickly joined Netflix. After 13 hours of binge watching season 3, I couldn't wait for season 4 to begin. I thought how am I ever going to be able to wait a week between each episode. SURPRISE! Season 4 came out with each and every episode. Another 13 hours of my life was spent in front of the TV binging on OITNB (as us experts say).
While waiting for season 4, I got hooked on another series called Dexter. This was 8 seasons with 12 episodes in each season. Talk about obsessive. As soon as I watched the entire 4th season of OITNB, I cancelled my Netflix subscription. All I need is one more reason to sit in front of the TV.
