OITNB is ending after season 7; Taylor Schilling says she's done being Piper so the show is ending after the next season... Honestly I think it could have gone sooo much better if her character had left back in season 4 and we continued on with everyone else.

@babydiehl2016 I was okay with her the first season and then she just got worse and worse. Suzanne, Taystee, Poussey(can't believe they killed her off!) (That episode right after though where it was all about her and they ended it with her smiling at us was so bittersweet and heartbreaking) Red, Ms. Claudette (so sad when she left the story), Nicki and Sophia were by far my favorite characters and had such better stories and personalities and were just all around better.

I couldn't even make it through season 2. The character of Piper just pissed me off too much. Bitching about everything and making dumbass choices. Lol I am curious to know, though, how they dragged it out for 7 seasons if she was only in prison for like a year?

@leowifey she was in there longer. The show started by being based on the story of the real Piper but only for the first season. Then since it became a hit they continued it on and she ended up being in there longer than the 13 months.

@babydiehl2016 She struggled so much and she just kept trying and getting better. 💕💕

@babydiehl2016 Yeahhh... oik. I was so happy to get more about Freida as well. The back stories are probably my favorite part of the series. Haha, yes!
I have also been a very big fan of Lollie since she first showed up.

@babydiehl2016 Oh and Alison! Her story wasn't as big as everyone else's but I enjoyed it and getting to know her character as well.

@babydiehl2016 She just wanted to be safe! She was so scared, I cried too! 😭😭

@babydiehl2016 Lynnae! I had very mixed emotions about her the majority of the time. Her backstory was insane, though! I think she would have done better inside/in the present story if she had stayed friends with Tiffany (Pennsatucky) and they got better together. It annoyed me that she stayed friends with Angie when Angie was absolutely nasty to her.
Mercedes Stoddard·
@babydiehl2016 Tiffany is a whole other thing though. I absolutely LOVE who she became and her story but I wish she either wouldn't have gone back to Donuts or he wouldn't have done what he did to her, even though he is better and they worked things out it still irritates me.

@babydiehl2016 She was raised absolutely awful and when she waa young she found herself someone and she loved him so much, she did good. Then he left and it got worse. The things she did and how she treated herself was truly heartwrenching. Her and Boo were complete opposites and she absolutely hated Boo in the beginning simply due to what she was believing and being so extreme. Then she calmed down, became so sweet, got new teeth. I would also say to credit Boo for help with her growing up. They became such a great duo. She built up Tiffany in a great way versus what she previously was. I just love her (and Boo really haha) SO MUCH!!!

@babydiehl2016 Lynnae could have done so well if she had more of a Tiffany type of situation, honestly I was disappointed that Tiffany couldn't help her. Due to Lynnae's back story we see she wasn't always this nasty, hateful, demeaning, or judegemental person. Her influences on the inside added that to her. She could have been great, it's a shame her ONE friend couldn't help her but instead was meh. Like, seriously; the talent show episode?! Angie was an absolute jerk and couldn't simply support Lynnae being happy and having a good time.

@babydiehl2016 She was Piper's first roomate. She was the one convicted for murder and had all the rumors around the prison about running a slave trade but really she was taking in immigrant girls and she had a cleaning service and she took care of them and she killed a man one of the her girl's had cleaned for because he hurt her.

@babydiehl2016 That was so awful for Taystee! She had absolutely nothing to do with it at all. To be fair, at the end of season 5 they brought up how she had taken the riot from being about Poussey to being more about her, I believe it went: "this is for P" and I can't remember who replied, "it stopped being about her a long time ago." But she had absolutely no reason to be blamed for Piscatella!
Mercedes Stoddard·
@babydiehl2016 She kind of went off the radar and wasn't really even brought up much after she was taken away.

@babydiehl2016 another officer shot him because he wasn't paying attention. That asshole was shooting just to shoot and even though he, "meant for it to hit the ceiling", he still shot without needing too, and so Piscatella died. I hope that can get fixed. I mean, they weren't even going to do anything to CO Bailey for the accidental death of Poussey either. They were going to just let him off. I wonder if that's really what they were going for there too. It was very easy for them to be able to give the blame to Tasytee as she was the ringleader of the riot but false conviction!
