      Lauren Carroll Harris Guardian [Orange Is the New Black's] compassion and the super-committed cast still have you rooting for its well-loved characters. Jul 30, 2019 Full Review Arielle Bernstein Salon.com One of the most powerful things that this season of "Orange is the New Black" accomplishes is its depiction of mentally ill women as complete people who are just as capable of growth, change, kindness and compassion as anyone else. Jun 25, 2019 Full Review Soraya Nadia McDonald Andscape The latest season of Orange forces us to ask ourselves if we're still the country of Oprah-as-mentored-by-Maya-Angelou. Sep 26, 2017 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof Prison overcrowding and abuse as a result of unscrupulous profit exposes the dehumanization of inmates at all levels. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 14, 2019 Full Review Eleanor Halls GQ Magazine [UK] Orange Is The New Black could have done it so well had it really tried. Jul 9, 2019 Full Review Angela L.

      payton r This show has been amazing up to this point. Somehow this season was nothing but filler while it attempted to make the most critical statement the show has been building up to. This season had the potential to be epic and touch on multiple injustices within the prison industrial complex. This season could’ve cemented this show as one of the best/most important shows in recent memory. However the pandering and plot lines that fell out of touch with reality made the season fall incredibly flat. I was either bored out of my skull or annoyed the whole time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Tiago S Nessa temporada teve a famosa rebelião, posso dizer um pouco massante ainda mas é o efeito que causa para estar na realidade de uma guerra na prisão, ainda usando muita comédia, tensão, e um pouco de terror na cena que Desi Piscatella captura algumas detentas e causa terror físico e psicológico com a Red, Alex, Pipper; o que até deu um clímax diferente para a série, porém devo dizer que foi uma das melhores season de Orange pois mostra para quem não conhece o que seria uma verdadeira rebelião, entre seus prós e contras tudo se mistura em uma bagunça de egos, e no fim tudo isso não poderia continuar pois como um antigo ditado uma morte acumulava em uma bola de neve, e o último episódio isso se mostrou perfeitamente, sem falar na filmagem ficou incrível de os policiais chegando com tudo, com movimentos concisos, e uma imagem digna de ser apreciada com muita ação também, mais cedo ou mais tarde o julgamento vem. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/18/22 Full Review diane h I liked seasons one through four, but season five is tedious. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member It's the most epic season of the entire series. Very enticing, entertaining, chaotic,captivating and anarchist! Very underrated! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Very bad final season Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member personally, my favorite season. i love how it takes place over a small amount of time.
