Orange Is The New Black

I can't shake the feeling that after a great, fast-paced opening episode, the story gradually loses momentum. I have the impression that the creators are somewhat stuck with the prison rebellion and are currently struggling to find a meaningful solution. The third part was not bad, but some plotlines felt rather uninteresting to me. (12/05/2019)

Compared to the previous installment, I have witnessed some improvement, the story has picked up pace, but this time I haven't experienced such a high-quality atmosphere as in the opening episode. It would be great if the creators worked on the atmosphere or added more humor so that I could rate it higher. (12/05/2019)

The fifth episode, in terms of quality, was on par with the previous one, and under normal circumstances, I would rate it with four pieces. However, it excessively dwelled emotionally on the fate of black people, which, in my opinion, has become quite tiresome. (12/05/2019)

Although this time the creators focused more on interpersonal relationships and states of mind, while negotiations between rebels (wow, that's a word, if it even is) and authorities were slightly sidelined, I enjoyed it fairly well, and if Pelíšky taught me that I shouldn't commit suicide with an electric oven, now I know that I should read the composition before drinking paint. 4* (14/05/2019)

The seventh episode seemed to me to be somewhat different, the creators somewhat deviated from the main plot, so the whole rebellion somewhat faded into the background, and instead of the usual dialogues and possible action, I saw one of the most human episodes since the beginning of the series. (14/05/2019)

After the previous more humane episode, a series with proper action and drama came, I really like it, the contrast is very nice. The whole story is developing quite interestingly (and therefore also entertainingly) and it would be a shame if the creators didn't manage the final third of the season. 4*+ (14/05/2019)

In the ninth episode, the creators managed to excellently combine Piscatello's action storyline with the ongoing negotiation for the release of hostages and the end of the rebellion. In the end, I was not bored at all, Caputo once again managed to reliably make me laugh, so I was very satisfied. (14/05/2019)

I praised the previous episode for its excellently mixed plot, and the tenth episode was even better in this regard. I don't even know which storyline I enjoyed more, but I would probably choose the funniest one, which was definitely Caputo's negotiation with Fig. (14/05/2019)

I had a feeling that the perfectly functioning plot in the eleventh episode unnecessarily fell apart, I was not too interested in what was happening around Lorna and Suzanne, and the whole episode lost its pace because of it, which was a shame because after the previous part I was hoping to only praise it. (15/05/2019)

So I concluded that the series has nothing to do with reality, and only because of that I was able to enjoy it to some extent. However, here the script occasionally bit its own author in the ass. I was quite far from any enthusiasm, and if no one else does it, I am willing to personally spend Baxter Bailey, that tragedy is really unbearable to watch. (15/05/2019)

The final episode was better than both previous episodes, although it wasn't great, it was good. While watching the series, I learned to ignore logic, but here it was too obvious. People were leaving the besieged prison like workers leaving for a beer during work hours, and if the prison wasn't besieged, it was still bizarre. Well, it could have been worse. (15/05/2019)

As I said in my review of the thirteenth episode, it would be great if it was the season finale. Now there is a risk of Season 7 ruining the rest of what makes the series great. If replacing characters with new ones was supposed to revive the story, I can honestly say it failed to do so. With the exception of the crazy sisters, the flashbacks involved characters I couldn’t care less about, so it felt like a waste of time. Unfortunately, it turned out that quality retrospective scenes and the sacrificed characters were more important for the story than I’d thought. (22/09/2019)

I was all set to give this episode four stars, but Suzanne's hallucinations threw me off. I get that the creators were aiming for a funny and unique take on maximum security, but it just didn't do it for me — it felt a bit dragged out. Despite these scenes, I still had a pretty good time overall and was pleasantly surprised after the last season. (19/09/2019)

I couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing. The dynamic duo of Joe Caputo and Natalie Figueroa, who usually keep me entertained, injected a bit of excitement into an otherwise lackluster plot. Other than that, there weren't any standout moments for me. (19/09/2019)

Interrogations are still ongoing, so you'd think we'd get the same old outcome as the last episode, right? Well, not quite. This time around, the creators didn't skimp on the intriguing plot twists, they managed to slip in some humor, and on top of that, my suspicion that Frieda is slowly becoming the most interesting character in the series was confirmed. (19/09/2019)

This time, it was definitely above average, but I'm missing that extra something that would make me bump up the rating. Unlike Wentworth, this show has always had more than just pure drama — it's the comedy that made it strong. But it feels like that comedic element is slowly fading away. (20/09/2019)

It's tough to find new words when the fifth episode is pretty much on par with the last one. The plot's still solid, definitely better than a lot of other series out there, especially for a sixth season. But it's missing that extra dose of quality humor for me to bump it up to a four-star rating, which is a shame. (20/09/2019)

Looks like a pretty lackluster and repetitive season. Another episode that failed to deliver any standout moments. Sure, there might be some coprophiliacs among viewers and they might have enjoyed it, but personally, I could've done with a bit more humor. (20/09/2019)

Finally, I could bump up the rating! After three lackluster episodes, we got a pretty entertaining one. The creators got back to focusing on the story, injecting some humor back into the mix. It's about time! (21/09/2019)

Looks like the creators hit their stride halfway through the season. There were moments where I felt like they were trying to recapture the quality of the first two seasons. Overall, I had a pretty good time. (21/09/2019)
