Orange is the New Black: Season 3

[Orema]

I don't watch OITNB—causes me anxiety and it has too many damn triggers for me (no, I have not been in prison), but am listening to the Diane Rehm show and thought others may be interested in hearing Ms.Mulgrews thoughts.

Kate Mulgrew, from OITNB, on the Diane Rehm Show

I hear you on Mulgrew. She's such a good and thoughtful actress. She also played the mom on the television show, The Black Donnellys, one the most realistic television shows written about poor Irish families living in NYC (Hell's Kitchen neighborhood). I thoroughly enjoy her acting.

I did not like this season...I love big boo; always have...getting her and pensatucky's back story was the best part of this season.

For full disclosure: I've hated piper from the beginning. I can't stand people that need to blame everyone else for their choices. Also, I loooooved Ruby Rose - until she was every single place I went on the internet and I got tired of hearing about how she was so hot she turned every woman who saw her gay. Just like that song they always play on the radio, I came to abhore the sight of her pretty quickly. I even blocked her name on my tumblr to try to get some respite from her. That went a long way to dulling my excitement for the season before it even started.

So those things didn't help my outlook at all, honestly. But this season just seemed - pointless. It just wasn't interesting to me this season. I was glad it was over...and considering how much I'd loved it the first two seasons, that really made me realize how unhappy I was with this season.

Frankly, I can't even remember at this point what most of it was about. And that's really really sad.

Still gonna watch next season though, and hope it's back to its former glory.

Really old school (me).

I remember her as Mary on the old soap opera Ryan's Hope. She was such a beauty!

Samira Wiley of "Orange Is the New Black" and Lauren Morelli, a writer for that show, are married.

Wiley -- who's now appearing in Hulu's "The Handmaid's Tale" -- and Morelli exchanged vows Saturday in a ceremony in Palm Springs, according to Martha Stewart Weddings. The women had gotten engaged at the same location in October. Wiley's parents officiated at the ceremony, where the brides both wore white designed by Christian Siriano.

The ceremony wrapped up with Montell Jordan's "This Is How We Do It," while the colorful, confetti-themed reception kicked off with Justin Bieber's "Baby," MSW said.

The couple started dating in early 2014 and walked the Emmy Awards red carpet together that August.

Morelli filed for divorce from her TV-writer husband Steve Basilone the next month. They had gotten married just months before Morelli joined the "OINTB" writing staff in 2012; the split was reportedly amicable.

While writing for the show, her first professional writing gig, Morelli "found a mouthpiece for my own desires and a glimmer of what my future could look like," she said in a May 2014 essay for Identities.mic. The essay was written about six months after she and Basilone, who'd dated for six years before tying the knot, decided to split.

"I went through it all on set," Morelli wrote. "I fell in love with a woman, and I watched my life play out on screen."
