TV:  Orange is the New Black

Getting me to watch this was like forcing me to eat spinach as a child, but I'll begrudgingly admit to enjoying it.  The writing is quite good and the premise is very good.  This is arguably Netflix's best effort.  The lead actress, Taylor Schilling, is a find.  The show is a comedy and doesn't deal in the hard-boiled.  A spoiler:  a missing screwdriver causes panic around the prison because someone could use it as a weapon, but it is discovered to be fashioned into a dildo instead.  That perfectly sums up the tone of the show.

A comparison to Girls seems apt - a cable comedy about the east coast young and privileged - and so when I think about it that way, I'm inclined to like it a whole lot more.
