Kate Mulgrew - Orange is the New black

[JirinPanthosa]

Boo's not exactly the looker, but in terms of technique? It's kind of like Mike and Nadine in Twin Peaks.

OH I need reminding it's been so long since I saw that. Who were they again?

I find her very appealing on some level, she is so THERE.

Nadine is Ed's crazy wife who has super strength and for most of the series thinks she's 18 again. Mike is Bobby's friend who ends up dating her.

I'm thinking mostly of one scene:

Mike "It's not what you think."
Bobby "I think...you have a sudden interest in fossils."
Mike "Yeah, but....it's not what you think."
Mike "Okay, do you have any idea what the combination of super strength and sexual maturity can accomplish?"
(Whispers in his ear)
Bobby "WHOA!!!"

I can't remember it at all! Ugh. How does it hold up today I wonder, it is now 24 years old!

So does anyone think it is so not a coincidence that Morello is also a kind of cherry?

Didn't know that. Her personality does come off as very sweet, like a cherry.

Not the type of 'Girls Night Out' most of us look forward to, but a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do.

Not as good as last year's carol sung by Danielle and Uzo... but this one DOES include a former Star Fleet Captain of our acquaintance.

Hopefully in season 3 Suzanne gets flashbacks to her crime and her early days in psych. Do we know a lot about why Suzanne is in prison? We know she raged out on somebody, that's about it.

 

[Catarina]

OMG I am laughing so hard. "Nailed it." but more so that dead panned, "Two yogurt cups.". And of course extra tears if you pretend Kate is sitting in her Captain's seat doing a Red voice with Tom busting a gut.

We don't know anything except Uzo claims season 3 makes things "clear as day".

Oh, and if you watched the above music video of the 12 days of Christmas, you'll see season 3 Red still sports her scar from the Vee/slock attack.

Uzo made the best dressed list in 2014 per this website.

No one else from the show hit best or worst... which is a good thing since at least one actress was pilloried at the Emmys (not Kate!)

As Emma Watson found out a couple months ago, taking a political stand can be daunting, like when Diane Guerrero's op ed piece about her youth brought its own negative backlash.

I had a dream with Kate three months ago but she was my mother as an angry Russian mom. Hahaha. Toooo much OITNB for me.

Depends if Alex finds out that Piper ratted her out. From a dramatic standpoint she probably does but she has no immediate way of finding out. And if she does there's the whole 'Eye for an eye' thing. How can she be too mad about Piper getting her put in jail when she did the same thing to Piper. That dynamic should be interesting.

I'm most worried about what happens to Nichols next season. A huge stash of heroin and nobody knows were it is except her and Boo. I'm really concerned she will overdose.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

An eye for an eye until the whole world is blind.

Alex could claim that her betrayal isn't as bad as Piper's, since Alex ratted out Piper for a lighter sentence and Piper ratted out Alex just to put her back in the slammer.

Alex could also claim (I'm surprised she didn't use this on Piper already) that since Piper planned on telling the truth she boxed Alex into a truth telling corner. That it wasn't until after Alex testified that she discovered Piper lied on the stand.

I wonder is we'll see Polly at all in season 3. Kind of like another way to isolate Piper... no Larry, no Polly, Alex back in jail but also back to ignoring her. I can also see Red turning on her when Red discovers Piper lied to her about her family's deli and her husband.

I do worry about Nicky and the heroin, and wonder if there will be repercussions between Vee's henchwomen & Red, now that Red knows about it. It's one thing to sell... its quite another thing to give out free samples to your friends in the Narcotics/Alcoholics anonymous group to entice them off their wagon.

Come to think of it... that's one of the reasons (besides her betrayal of Poussey) I had issues with Taystee in season 2. What she did to Nicky was itself evil.

 

[JirinPanthosa]

Red would be mad at Piper if she found out she lied but I doubt it'd amount to any more than yelling at her and denying her contraband. I don't think anyone in the prison other than Vee wants anything to do with violent conflict. When Red is mad at you she doesn't hurt you, she cuts you off. You have to push her pretty far to get her to consider violence.

Even if Alex is furious at Piper I think part of her would also read it as a grand romantic gesture. I agree Taystee went a little too far in season 2 just out of a feeling that she owned it to Vee. If Vee had given a crap about her she never would have come back to prison when she was out.
