Poor Suzanne. Trying to keep a secret plus being off her meds must have been a lot for her to deal with.

Heh, I'm with Daya - Piper's obsession with Alex is like a broken record and I don't care about it.

Hearing Alex Trebek call Piper a bitch made my fucking week!

Same here! The hallucination sequence was worth it for that alone!

The ship has sailed for making Suzanne endearing, I still blame her for Poussey's death.

As annoying as too much Suzanne can get, I do not blame her for Poussey's death.  Suzanne is mentally ill, on and off her medications, not getting psychiatric therapy and at the time of the incident was still traumatized by the fight club escapade between her and Maureen.  Suzanne is operating under diminished capacity.  Sometimes she makes sense and is lucid and sometimes she goes off the rails.  She turns violent without warning.  She shouldn't even be inside this prison, Litchfield minimum security or max.

I'm in for the long haul, as I've invested all this time watching each season.  I streamed Seasons 1 and 2 back in 2014 or 2015 before Season 3 was released.  The last episode I saw until this year was S02E13 where Miss Rosa escapes in the van and kills Vee on her way out.

I've binge-watched everything to now since mid-August.  It must have been strange for those of you who watched the entirety of Season 5, A Few Days In The Life of Litchfield's Prison Riot, and then have an entire year until the next installment!

Thanks for all those who've said this season will get better.

At this point, it's more starring Uzo Aduba and Taylor Schilling is part of the ensemble cast.  Piper is annoying AF and I'm sick of her and Alex's relationship.

I'm sad that the guards are going to pin the death of Piscatella (who I'm glad got his commupance, and not because of the inmates!) on the inmates.  These guards are sadistic monsters who are devious and evil.  I'm also sad that Daya is looking like she's ending up in for life.  Do the prisons just write up an inmate and blame the death of someone else on that person?  Isn't there a trial in the criminal court system?  Will Daya get an attorney?

My favorite character is Red.

I was turned off by the beginning. Yes, we get it, Suzanne has problems. The hallucination scenes went on and on and ON, without really adding anything to the story. 

Lots of new characters—seemed to sort of, I dunno, water things down somewhat? 

Already sick of Piper. 

Just starting this season.  We FF'd through all the hallucination scenes.  Too weird for us, and did not further the plot.  Felt like filler to us.

I don't even remember Suzanne's role (possibly) in Poussey's death, but I agree that Suzanne is mentally ill and should be given additional help and/or separated from the general prison population.  I feel like she hasn't been served or supported properly.

I would suggest going through Suzanne's hallucinations of her fellow prisoners again after you have completed the season.   It's mildly entertaining to go back and try to connect the hallucination with the character's story.
