Scribbles About TV: Orange is The New Black Season 4 (Spoilers)

So I wasn't all that excited when this season came out to be totally honest...the show hasn't been that good in a long time, I like Grace and Frankie a little better...and it just isn't my absolute favorite show anymore.

...but this season was different! It started out really really well and I wasn't really going to binge watch it or anything but then I ended up watching 7 episodes the fist day and finishing it within 3 days... Oops! Like I said it was a good season. 

There's never really been a "hide the body" storyline on the show, but this year it did! And I think that was what the show was really missing. I liked the friendship between Lolly and Alex, I liked that we learned Lolly's backstory. I liked knowing more about Healy cause he kinda didn't get the attention needed last year on the show... And I still didn't really like his backstory, but it made sense at least now! 

And I liked Piper's story this season! I liked her story last season too and I know everyone hates her... But I like Piper and I thought it was good! I liked that she thought she was so badass... but then when Alex told her she killed someone she just kinda stopped the act entirely. Partially when she was branded... but I think that was before Alex said anything... so that was kind of a cool transition!

And the end... that took such a turn! I wasn't expecting that at all... it commented on events that were going on in a really real way. Didn't expect Daya to take a turn like that. And I didn't see... any of that really happening. I really like Poussey and they kept commenting about how tiny she was and then they did the episode of Baxter... who seemed like a nice guard but dumb... and he didn't really mean to get caught up in the middle of everything... but he did and it shouldn't have happened.

Caputo seemed to really have things together this season... but then at the end... he didn't even mention Poussey's name! And it really seemed like he was trying to do the right thing all year... just caught up because of his girlfriend and his job... and it was just not the right way to handle things. It was sad. I didn't want him to be the bad guy... but he always is.. and it was bad. It was just a very sad ending that was fitting... but wrong. And sad.

So yeah... that was everything I want to mention. It seems like they listened to complaints about last season and took them to heart when creating this season... and I thought it was better than ever because of that. There were so many things I complained about last season... and no complaints this season! I thought it was a really great season all in all! Best season ever I'd even say!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
