Just watched season 6 episode 7 of oitnb and that 20 seconds scene between daya and daddy near the end of the episode is probably the hottest thing I've scene in this show!
Daddy getting all up in dayas face threatening her and daya on drugs, knowing full well that daddy's attracted to her, kissing her then pushing her away then daddy grabbing dayas jaw, staring at her lips, then shoving her away, all aggressive and then proceeded to make out some more!! That did something to my brain, that made me go "wait do that again", that made me watch those 20 seconds 3 more time (might watch it again for science..)
Those 20 seconds made me realize how much of a missed opportunity that we didn't get more this kind of dynamic, you know women criminals being aggressive with eachother then making out like nobody's business! (There's that one scene with alex and piper having hate sex that i didn't care for it, it felt weird and idk not authentic or whatever)
Now i don't think daya is gonna be into women (tbf she did go look for her and they had a little hand holding moment but I'm not trying to be delusional), she just on drugs, but i really wanna see more of her with daddy!

Top 5 hottest men???
I’m gonna go with famous men. If my husband is reading this, you’re obviously #1 always.
Now, onto the good stuff.
Dacre Montgomery. I will not be elaborating as you can simply Google him and see the evidence for yourself.
Nick Jonas. I’m a sucker (hehe) for curly hair, and he is no exception.
Eduardo Franco. Dude seems like the sweetest guy and like he’s fun to have a conversation with. He just gives off “laughing during sex” vibes that I’m here for, honestly.
Matt McGorry. I’ve loved him since OITNB and he has only gotten more delicious since then. Plus, he has a kind heart.
David Harbour. He’s Daddy and I will take no further questions.
Ask me my top 5 anything!

So I started watching the 6th season of OITNB and it does indeed look like an improvement over the mess that was season 5. Phew.
Loving the drama with the OGs having to snitch on each other so that they won't get more time.
Red forgiving Nicky for fucking her over? [cries in a corner]
Have yet to feel bad about Frieda for doing the same though, because you don't see her hurting or feeling remorse. Unlike Nicky, she barely hesitates. Checks out. She's a survivor.
I still love Maria (pretty sure it's because the actress is really good no matter how bad the script gets), but can't blame Gloria for getting revenge. Can't blame Blanca for turning on her either.
What pained me a lot was seeing Cindy implicate Taystee. We had already known that Cindy is selfish and a coward, but this season and her new flashbacks really drive that point home. A really nice touch that she was the one to hug Tasha during her breakdown in front of Piscatella (season 5 finale).
Why is Alex not questioned about the events in the pool though? Does that happen in the background?
Moreover, it's a delight to see the OGs (Flaca, Cindy, Lorna, Daya etc.) interacting now that their cliques are not a thing anymore.
Moving on.
A thing that feels forced to me: Red losing all sense of control when she sees Frieda and thus missing the opportunity to meet her grandchildren for the first time. Like, come on. That only happens to trigger the "SHU is cruel and gives you dementia" ending, because it makes no fucking sense.
Red's s6 characterization is so inconsistent with her s1-s4 counterpart's, who played the long game and did not make such impulsive/hasty decisions.
Not counting s5 Red, because almost every character (except for Tasha, Gloria, Soso and Sophia) was an exaggerated caricature of themselves during season 5.
Another lady whose characterization is off? Lorna's, who thinks that joining a gang is good for her baby. Antidepressants (paroxetine) do have side effects, but do not give you a personality transplant.
"Don't look at me. I'm crazy, but not Florida crazy." Oh, baby.
That's the only reason they kept her there in season 6, because she adds literally nothing to the story.
Now, as for the new characters,
Love the guard who used to be Tasha's friend and Lorna's bunkmate. Hope they both get their own background episodes, because they're the most interesting ones.
Most of the other guards seem pretty bland in comparison--cheap repetitions of previous COs, e.g., Hellman is Humps no. 2.
A good thing that Artesian is back though. She's no Fisher or Wanda, but compared to the rest of the COs... Can't wait to see her PTSD episode.
Why is the show trying to make Dixon, the guard who compared Poussey's murder to breaking a chair and murdered several people and also a girl after he had sex with her because her loved ones "would kill her anyway," goofy and lovable all of a sudden? Isn't the woobification of Tiffany's rapist enough?
I like the "crazy baby killer" (Piper's bunkmate) and want to know what turned her into Medea.
All the new inmate villains (Carol, Barb, Badison & Annalisa) are so cartoonish and over the top. Waiting to see if they'll get any depth, but I'm sensing that the baddies on this show peaked at Vee. Even Piscatella seems more nuanced in comparison.
I'm struggling to see what people saw in Carol... that she's pretty? The older actress is ok, but the younger one's acting is, um, how to put this delicately? Not ideal.
Badison has some funny lines, but she's more of a tryhard high school bully than a compelling antagonist. Waiting to see if that's intentional or not.
Annalisa is so annoying and unnecessary. Could definitely do without her. Glad to know that Lorna attacks her before being moved to Florida honestly.
"Daddy" is so physically unimposing that I find it hard to buy he* is the protector of the block. Androgyny on its own isn't enough. Waiting to see if he'll get some development, because for the time being, it looks like he's Stella no. 2: there to look hot despite the subpar acting and personality of a spoon. But I suppose he's there to trigger Daya's kingpin arc and drug addiction. My point? Missing Boo hours.
*Not sure what pronouns I should use (Annalisa says "he"), because it's not clear to me whether "Daddy" is a trans guy, nonbinary or a cis masc lesbian.
Moving on again.
I found the opening with Suzanne's hallucinations charming yet a bit out of place.
The thing is, S1-S3 were more of a comedy than a drama. S4 was the turning point and the show became more of a drama than a comedy.
Season 5 should have committed to drama, but unfortunately tried to balance the two and stumbled.
Season 6 is another attempt at balancing the two.
Nicky remains funny, but the lines lack the spark and wit of her pre-s5 ones. Maybe that can be explained due to the "We're all in Max now" development, maybe it's due to the new writers interpreting her differently.
Something is missing there for sure and is definitely not the "I'm a player, but suddenly stopped chasing women" bit.
Piper keeps asking for Alex ("a broken record" like Daya says) and then spends her time joking about their wedding. What else is new with these two?
What else indeed. Hm.
Where the hell is Sophia? I know she gets out in the finale, but in the meantime, where is she? We barely saw her in season 5 after 2 interactions with Gloria.
Oh, last but not least, missing Soso and Chang hours.
Not missing Leanne and Angie at all hours. Too bad that they replaced them with equally irritating characters.

BIO
though her parents worked long hours, there was no lack of love in the houston household. it never really bothered malika growing up, besides there was always the company of her siblings. to this day, she credits her parents for the work ethic she has today. a daddy's girl from the day she was born. and a mother who always encouraged her to pursue her passions. from a young age, malika was taught the manners of a southern lady. like most southern girls she did pageants, but could also be found playing outside in the dirt with the boys.
as a kid, she was put into dance classes as an way to channel all the energy she had into something productive and fun. ever since then, malika fell in love with dance and hasn't looked back. she's studied many different styles of dance over the years - jazz, tap, hip hop, contemporary, and even some ballet. it wasn't long before she traded the pageants for dance competitions.
the first move to atlanta happened when she was eight years old. it took a little time to adjust but it wasn't bad. malika was a pretty easy going kid, could get along with most people. dance helped her to make new friends. six years later, the houston's packed up and moved again. this time to ohio when she was thirteen. it was a bit more difficult for her to leave her friends and the life she knew. she didn't want to go and made that known with pre-teen dramatics. throughout every big change in her life, dance was the one thing that was constant. and family.
after graduating high school, malika attended julliard. an accomplishment she had only dreamed of for so many years that had become a reality. moving to new york was the first major life decision she experienced on her own. it was the last time she moved, and she wasn't planning on doing so again. once she finished college, she settled in queens where she was a dance teacher, she taught young kids and the older teens as well. she auditioned and did a couple tours as a back up dancer for various singers here and there. it wasn't until she was hired to choreograph a music video for a huge artist that her name really started to be known and sought after. with the money earned from several high profile jobs, she now lives on the upper east side. she still enjoys teaching, although it's became more on the side than when she first started. one of her goals is to open her own studio someday.
upon first meeting, malika can sometimes come off a bit distant. she's always been that way with each move during her childhood. it just takes her some time to warm up to new people. she doesn't open up to just anybody. but once she does let you in, she's a great friend to have in your corner. she is dedicated to her craft, but also loves to have a good time with friends. she worked hard to get where she is, after all. damn if she won't enjoy it. she's close with her family, especially her older brother. while she is doing quite well for herself, she is happy to be able to do what she loves without being super famous to the general public. it grants her privacy and a sense of normalcy a bit more than that of some of her peers.
