I'm into season three of OITNB - I can't decide: Ruby Rose, hot or not?

Damn straight she is. Well, you know what I mean.

( Jimmy Fallon and Barack Obama slow rapped the news last week on the tonight show, Obama joked "Orange is not the new black" - Off topic but worth a mention here )

I don't think it does.
Although you see a lot of Figgy in series three.
I kind of feel like I'm watching Desperate Housewives, but in jail.

I got through season 1 and the Ruby Rose parts that counted upon a "hollar" from Mrs Boon.

Just started the Fargo series.

I have a feeling I've seen the first two episodes before.

Their accents really do it for me.

Loving the new season of Bates Motel on Channel 7 last night. Vera Farmiga is fantastic.

Big changes coming for SBS2 with the channel set to re-badge itself later this year as Viceland the channel Vice recently launched.

There's a major shake-up coming for SBS2, the digital channel for SBS, as it relaunches in a partnership with American media behemoth Vice.

SBS2 -- which currently features a mix of multicultural and foreign news programs with lighter content like Mythbusters, dating show If You Are The One, South Park and Drunk History -- was Thursday announced as the Australian media partner for Viceland, the TV network launched by Vice in 2015.

Vice is an edgy, youth-focused multi-platform media brand which launched as a Canadian magazine in 1994, and has since expanded to encompass a global news operation, books, a record label and more.

Viceland includes programs such as documentaries on black markets and computer hackers, a series on the lives of comedians, actress Ellen Page's show 'Gaycation', sports, drugs and a cooking show hosted by rapper Action Bronson titled 'F*ck That's Delicious'.
