Season 1 Reviews
Slant Magazine
Julia Selinger
Season six represents a return to form for the series.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
Orange is the New Black mixes in a good deal of grit with its laughs.
Salon.com
Roxane Gay
Orange is the New Black is diverse in the shallowest, most tokenistic ways.
Tampa Bay Times
Eric Deggans
Orange Is the New Black mines dark comedy from a situation most middle-class quality TV nerds would find horrifying.
Slant Magazine
Matthew Wolfson
While it's not apparent that the show's personalities add up to anything more than themselves at first, they ultimately prove to be compelling studies of people trying to work through glaring mistakes and obvious limitations...
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
[It] feels like Netflix's first real home run since it famously entered the scripted-series biz.
Paste Magazine
Amy Amatangelo
The show's structure of flashing back to Piper's life before prison works. It sets up an inherent mystery, serves as a nice juxtaposition to her current predicament and keeps the show from being all prison, all the time.

Orange is the New Black might have a genre all to itself -- the women's prison comedy.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Danielle Henderson
Well, I didn't see THAT coming.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Orange Is The New Black... creates an open and accepted breeding ground for imperfection, while it also helps break down longstanding stereotypes of how ideal female characters are supposed to look, act and feel.
New York Times
Mike Hale
[The] ensemble may be enough reason to spend 12 hours or so at the fictional Litchfield prison, even if the drama occasionally lags.

For all its flaws, Orange Is the New Black has the potential to join the pantheon of TV programs that have worked to move our country forward.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
Halfway through the season, I felt like Orange was the best of the Netflix originals so far. By the end, I was sure of it - and that this is one of the best shows of the year, on any channel or distribution system.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Matt Zoller Seitz
The latest new series worth finding time to watch is Weeds creator Jenji Kohan's Orange Is the New Black.
Entertainment Weekly
Melissa Maerz
It's very funny and occasionally quite moving, with a crackerjack cast and provocative insights into the way that race and power and magical chickens function in the penal system.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
Netflix's Orange Is the New Black is a funny, dramatically sound, poignant, and thoroughly addictive adventure through a bleak looking glass.
AV Club
Myles McNutt
Lays the foundation for a structure that could allow the series both room to tell dramatic stories and space to explore their long-term dramatic-and comic-consequences.

Willa Paskin
I want to tell you how much you should go and watch it, but I am in a hurry to get back to watching it myself, because watching "Orange Is the New Black" is all I want to do.

Orange is one of the best new programs of the year, and the six episodes I've seen have left me hungry to see more.
