Jesus Christ, that scene where the lady from El Salvador called her kids on the burner :mjcry:

The lady saying she was raped at the border and Fig giving her the abortion pill :mjcry:

The Egyptian girl getting deported without being able to say goodbye to Nikki :mjcry:

Episode 10 was a hard one to watch :mjcry:

It's a shame how bad this show was in the middle seasons and how good this season has been :mjcry:
Don't forget her fam probably killed her for dishonoring their family:mjcry:

Just finished the seasons, some thoughts

- Its crazy we've been following these characters/storyline for a decade now, now its just over
- I thought the season started off amazing, kinda fizzed out a few episodes & then ended strong
- Kinda feel like this show is just too gloomy, kinda overdramatizes how literally the worst of the worst happens, but Prison is the worst, so I respect their choice to change the show tone to it in later seasons
- Alex, Lorna, Crazy Eyes had become straight fast forward/Skip material worthy, just the same shyt season in & season out, terrible characters
- Cindy going through all that in prison & should have reflected on what do & how to act when she gets out, and then just runs away from home after a small little issue :dahell:, even the mother was like :dahell: "we'll just have a sit down talk with her".
- I dont understand how Maritza got out early, I feel it might have just been a plot hole for her to being the center of the ICE storyline, I remember her backstory in the show, she was looking at TIME
- Piper like Larry said is just always looking for self sabotaging herself in everything she does, its just her nature, there is no way on earth she should have left Red Hair girl, I dont care about love & Alex wasnt getting out of prison for 3 years anyways

- Lastly, I never got the sense from Pennstucky from any other characters that she was at her breaking point, and had had it with everything, was her education or people thinking she could read/write ever even suggested, just like Tastsee said before their first tutoring, you would have assumed she was fine by watching her all these seasons.


Its crazy how there is LITERALLY NO buzz about this show anymore, Pop Culture really decided this show was over a few seasons ago, Literally nobody is talking about this show

Also Gloria is the baddest chick in this show :noah:
I was all in but bailed two seasons ago after they killed the black chick, I watched for a few episodes the next season but it didn’t feel like it was going to be worth it to continue.
The show got really annoying for two seasons, it wasn’t meant to be more than a 4 season show, but they dragged it out because they could.. once it stopped being about piper it started getting ridiculous just to keep drama going.



I wanted to finish it but I just am not interested in watching the last two seasons so I just came in here for spoilers.

It’s too many good shows out to be sticking with bad writing for too long.

I kinda like seeing things I enjoy through to the end. It pretty much has to get to the point where I hate watching the show regularly to get me to stop watching. It's basically the only reason I've kept watching The Walking Dead.

I am usually the same way, I still watch the CW arrowverse shows despite most of them being campy and barely average shows. but these shows with long breaks in between 8-10 episode seasons, its easy for me to lose interest before the new season

Piper was the worst thing about the show. It didn’t fall off because of a lack of focus on her, it fell off because it went longer than it should and some seasons stretched storylines too long or made terrible characters central to the plot - Badison, those two older sisters who ran C and D block, frieda, crazy eyes being over the top mental and annoying, etc.
