Skeptical about Netflix original shows, I refrained from watching Orange is the New Black for a long time. When it first came out, everyone was talking about it. My mom would spend day after day in her pajamas binge watching this so called amazing show.

I don't know why, but I did not think Netflix original shows would be that good. Maybe I was afraid of change. Maybe I was afraid of something new. So I stuck to the classics.

I watched Friends, The Office, and Parenthood. But after all of those shows I decided to finally give in and watch this show that everyone has been talking about for months on end.

When I first started the show I was 16. I thought I knew everything at that age, but turns out I didn't. Looking back a lot of the jokes and references flew way over my head. But it was so addicting. The cliff hangers were so good I soon became my mother, staying in my pajamas all day, doing nothing but clicking next episode. This show was so good. It still is. Every summer I wait for it to return. This summer, I'll probably watch the whole new season in a day or two when it comes out.

I wouldn't be surprised if I did.

But until then, I'll rewatch all the seasons, and finally understand what the crimes comitted and the jokes being tild actually mean.

A lot went down the past 5 seasons, and I need to give my brain a little refresher in order to prepare for this summer's season.

I cannot wait.
