MVPs: Orange is the New Black Season 4

                                     

After a serious three day binge watching session I've finished season 4 of Orange is the New Black and you know what? It's the best season yet. The story is relevant, the acting is brilliant, and it's like series was given new life. I won't be spoiling anything major here but I will say that this seasons MVPs (yes, more than one) really carried the show to a different place.

                               

1.) Taylor Schilling made me like Piper again! After season 3 and her kingpin (queenpin?) persona I grew incredibly irritated by Piper's shenanigans. This season picks up right were we left off but as the episodes go on we see a whole new side off Piper. Vulnerability. Remorse. Humility.  

                              

2.) I'll be the first to tell you that Alex Vause is my favorite OITNB character. Laura Prepon this season was amazing. She clearly survives the attempt on her life in the season 3 finale and Prepon's acting ability shows a completely different side of Alex. 

                              

3.) DANIELLE BROOKS. If there isn't an Emmy nomination in her near future than it will be a damn shame. I cannot say enough great things about her this season. If you watch season 4 for any reason then watch it for Danielle Brooks.
