Do you think “orange is the new black” did justice to women’s prison life?
In Orange Is The New Black, many of the prisoners and the guards end up having quite a strong bond, which is questionable. In real prisons, there's no doubt some prisoners do create a strong bond with different guards, but the show takes it too far. There are moments in the show where the prisonersRead more
In Orange Is The New Black, many of the prisoners and the guards end up having quite a strong bond, which is questionable. In real prisons, there’s no doubt some prisoners do create a strong bond with different guards, but the show takes it too far. There are moments in the show where the prisoners are actually given gifts, which is completely ridiculous. Joe Caputo provides Taystee with a watch at one point, and while that made for a sweet moment on the show, it would never happen in real life.

There were cockroaches everywhere! I opened up the microwave and the inside was covered in them. It was like something out of a horror film. I couldn’t imagine trying to eat there or sleep there. Gave me a creepy, crawly feeling just seeing them and two adults lived there! Then there was the iron skillet on the stove with at least 1/2 inch of grease in the bottom of it, which told me they fried and ate their food cooked in that much grease and yes, cockroaches were all over the stove too. This couple lived in an inner city area that was very impoverished and the couple were disabled as well as being elderly. It saddens me to know that many, many live in this type of condition. They deserve better. As I am sure, living in this type of environment affects their overall health because of the unsanitary conditions.
