Second season of Orange is the New Black launched today.

 

Anyone else into this?

 

I have to admit to being a bit of a TV/movie-phile.  I generally buy Blu-Rays when there's a movie I want to see rather than just watching it on PPV or In-demand (I like to collect).

 

Premium TV has really been leading a creative resurgence in recent years, probably dating back to The Sopranos.  Its nice that Netflix has become a legitimate competitor for HBO (which puts out some really great shows like Sopranos, Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire, True Blood etc).

 

House of Cards was tremendous.

 

While cable channels like AMC are getting in on the act, I annoys me a bit.  The Walking Dead would be so much better on Netflix or HBO where they could truly appeal to adults (HBO passed on The Walking Dead when Thomas Jane was attached).

 

As for Orange, it took me a few episodes to get into last season but Im looking forward to banging out a few episodes tonight.

 

As an aside, for you Trekies, it was recently the 20th anniversary of the finale of TNG, one of the best Series' Finales in TV history.

Star Trek: Discovery premieres Sept 24th on CBS All Access & Oct 10th on CTV Sci Fi which is interesting as they've never had staggered dates before.

I hope they do that with the Captain Pike series. It is going to be episodic. They can do 22 episodes on the main CBS network & it would probably catch on. Not happy that some of my shows won't debut for new seasons until "November-ish" as they stated. Like Blue Bloods. Speaking of Blue Bloods & Chicago PD, how do you change the characters of Danny Reagan (Blue Bloods) & especially Hank Voight (Chicago PD) in the wake of Black Lives Matter?

Len can't do the US this season because he does this and Strictly Come Dancing in the UK and there are travel restrictions in place

Tough to say its ending when they are spinning 2 shows out of it. Show been over a long time IMHO.

hmmm I'm curious as to how this will go

I'm probably guessing that it's a Boyz II Men member but someone else suggested it could be a two and a half men cast member, but the clue said

at this rate she'll be holding the record for longest stay for a female cast member of SNL (I don't know who currently holds that title as most cast members stay on for at least 7 years, and she's coming on her what is it 9th?)

Her decision to stick around for Season 46 comes weeks after NBC handed a straight-to-series order to a limited series about Netflix breakout Joe Exotic, in which McKinnon is set to star as the Tiger King’s nemesis Carole Baskin

That could be really good. 

When the trailer opened, I was wondering why Fred and George Weasley were there. 

Faaaaaaaaack I really enjoyed StumpTown. That's super shitty but hopefully it gets picked up...
