The plot: Bernadine Williams is a prison warden who, over the years, has been drifting away from her husband while dutifully carrying out executions in a maximum security prison. When she strikes up a unique bond with death-row inmate Anthony Woods, a layer of emotional skin is peeled back, forcing Bernadine to confront the complex-and often contradictory-relationship between good intentions, unrequited desires, and what it means to be sanctioned to kill.
Like i said its a heavy hitter with drama and suspense. Go watch it, its on Hulu.

The show ran for 7 seasons beginning July 11, 2013 to July 26, 2019 and is Based on Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison; by Piper Kerman
The show primarily focuses on Piper Chapman, a public relations executive with a career and a fiance until her past suddenly catches up to her. she is sentenced to spend time in a minimum-security women's prison for her association with a drug runner 10 years earlier.
Forced to change office grey for prison orange, Chapman edges her way through the corrections system in an attempt to adjust to life behind bars whilst making friends & enemies with the many eccentric, unusual and unexpected people she meets.
I didn't start watching until roughly season 4, but was quickly tagged as a fan and was always eager to see what happened next ( 9pm, 3am whats the difference right.....)
Although its was a great show some plot details seemed blurred or rushed at times causing me to ask myself, wait what? But strong physical acting and vocal timing truly helped dig in those finger Nails & shivs and not let go.
