Is this show that popular on NETFLIX?
I mean I like it and all but I don't see it really having the legs like that for an extended run like Oz

So...how many of you are going to actually not watch the show?:patrice:

I like the show but no 1 hour show should go over 5 seasons in my book.

Thrones season 5 was shaky, awards aside

Im also moving a few other shows i watch to bushes status that are in their 5th/6th seasons

I think this has potential to run for a while because the side characters a way better than Weeds.

That being said, I still don't think it should run that long. Unless they witch to another prison of course.

Thrones is one of the few dramas that can justify a long 7 or 8 season run imo.

I hated the ending to the last season and it felt rushed overall.

Hopefully this is an improvement but I don't think it should go past 5 seasons

Agree. Quality always drops.

Jesus. Awful.

I havent even watched s3 yet because I already thought s2 was a drop off from s1. To see people are sour on s3 and the fact its going for 7 seasons means I think I'm just going to cut my losses now and not bother.

not only is it popular it creates a lot of BUZZ and thats what Neflix cares about, getting people in the door and keeping them there for only $10 a month. Crazy Eyes has had a lock on the best supporting Emmy since the first season and the show is the only show that has ever been nominated for Best Comedy and Best Drama at the Emmys and continues to get nominated every year. It just won Best Show at the SAG awards last weekend...

Hmm...not sure if this is a good look.

Weeds fell the fukk off after season 3, but those first 3 were perfect. OITNB is already showing signs of degraded quality. OITNB is already becoming a parody of itself with its sentimentality towards these women. First two season worked so well because you actually felt like there was still some danger to the characters....it still had that OZ element to it. Piper's transition to a gangsta ass chick has probably come too soon, or at least, it's too apparent. When she beat the shyt out of Pennsatucky, you FELT it. Now, she can't really shock me, and most of the characters can't. Show has gone from character driven to plot driven and unless they bring in some new blood, I'm not sure if they can't get back to where they were.

The only character in season 3 that felt like his personality and emotions were driving things was the Warden. He had growth, and we learned new things about him in an organic way. I also liked (I believe it's Cindy, but excuse me if I'm mistaking characters) little storyline about becoming Jewish. Pennsatucky also had a lot of growth, even though it took a rape storyline to get there. Aside from that though, I was kinda "ehh" on it.
