Day Two: Netflix is life!

Netflix! You know that useful app or err, website that allows you to watch all the movies and shows in the world! Just kidding. There's maybe a hand full of movies on there I'd love to watch. And maybe 10-15 I'd take the time out to sit through. As for shows, I'll admit, there's quite the hefty collection. And because of that, I've been spending my lonely, boring days watching series I've seen and ones I've never seen. I took the time out to watch orange is the new black. So many people were in my ear about this damn show. "Watch it or we aren't friends anymore." A good good friend of mine said to me one random night. I told her "IM WATCHING ONE TREE HILL RIGHT NOW!" I mean, I was. I had watched the series growing up but I wanted to re-watch it. So sue me! But, I had been meaning to watch the show anyway so I started that night. I watched 4 episodes that Thursday night and finished the series by the end of the weekend. Boy
Oh boy. Where do I start? A prissy white girl named Piper going to jail for being a mule to her drug dealer ex girlfriend, Alex, whom she was lesbian with some years back.. but that was just a phase of course. Totally not going to turn gay again while in jail. Plus, that's against the rules in jail. No having sex with the inmates in jail! No no! Bad! She's got a fiancĂ©, Larry, who is played by the guy from American Pie... Just let that sink in. I couldn't take him seriously after American pie first came out. And then all of those sequels. And now, he's this serious, well put together young man with a weird jealousy and misogynistic attitude towards the things Piper has done in the past. He kind of hates Alex and fears how Piper will handle being close to her once we find out that Alex is in there. Piper tries ignoring Alex for awhile and she's an outright bitch to her. She was such an asshole but Alex is this tall, fierce chick with glasses that doesn't let anything phase her, all the while it does phase her on the inside, but she doesn't let it show. But damn, if you've seen Laura Prepon, you probably wouldn't be able to fight off any feelings toward her. The chemistry is great between the two of them. I don't want to spoil anything for people who have yet to watch it so I won't say if they get together or not. But whether they do or not, that chemistry makes the show pretty hot by itself. 

So, I finished orange is the new black. I tried watching lip service. The first season was nice. I don't remember any of their names because I got too angry at a certain character dying. I stopped watching after that and that's pretty much all I have to say about that show. But, feel free to check it out. Please, do it. 

I've been re-watching gossip girl for a week or two. Not even going to try to explain the shenanigans that take place on that show. Just so much. Too much. Maybe some other time. 

I've been being told to catch Once Upon a Time. Will maybe get to it. Been wanting to watch The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and several other shows but I just haven't gotten around to it. Watching all of the "good shows" that are out right now is an overwhelming thought. But once I get to it, I will definitely update and give reviews. Will possibly do a full review of Orange Is The New Black later on. 

Netflix is life these days. Although there is a huge lack of good movies on there, there is an abundance of great shows you can fill up your endless boredom with. So go there. Watch all of the shows I've seen and love. Watch them all I say!
