Orange Is the New Selfies

Hey, you know who I miss? Piper and Taystee and Poussey and Nicky and Sophia and Red and Diaz and Morello and Daya and Crazy Eyes and Big Boo and Miss Claudette and Yoga Jones and, hell, even Pennsatucky. And especially Alex Vause. Yep, I miss the ladies of “Orange Is the New Black.” I miss them a lot. ALOTALOTALOT. But what’s helping to tide me over all those long, long, long months until the show returns is how good they all are at Instagram. Like wicked good. Like selfie-sensational. Too much? Perhaps. But when there are ten agonizing months until even the possibility of another swirl, swirl, swirl you will gladly grasp anything that makes the wait even a little more bearable.

Also, damn, if those gals don’t look like they truly enjoy each other’s company and are having fun doing what they do. Hard time or good times, you decide. (Click any and all to embiggen)

The gang likes making faces.

The gang likes looking good.


Like, a lot.


A lot.


The gang likes posing with Jodie Foster (who directed the third episode of the first season, “Lesbian Request Denied.”)


Like, a lot.


A lot. (Full Disclosure: This was the one was not from Instagram, just from Twitter.)


But, come on, how can you not love this cast?


Like, a lot.


A lot.


So a lot.

p.s. Some of the cast to follow if you’re so inclined:
Taylor Schilling (Piper), Laura Prepon (Alex), Danielle Brooks (Taystee), Taryn Manning (Pennsatucky), Samira Wiley (Poussey), Dascha Polanco (Daya), Jackie Cruz (Flaca), Emma Myles (Leanne), Adrienne Moore (Black Cindy).

p.p.s. Also, as long as you’re following, I’m on the damn thing, too.

Thank you for that. I just caught up with the last episode last night, and it's going to be a loooong wait.

Get used to missing Alex Vause.

It seems wrong to bring in a new love interest for Piper that can replace Alex when it feels like they are OTP. Their love story feels so epic while her relationship with Larry is so safe and uninspiring. Piper herself admitted Alex feels inevitable to her.
So I’m thinking how the fans would feel should they bring in another actor to play Alex? or is it more acceptable to create a new love interest?
Also, I’m kind of sad that this might mean there won’t be any more lady loving for Piper (at least)
