The surprise comes when Alex (Laura Prepon) is transferred to a prison in Ohio and is reunited with Carrie “Big Boo” Black (Lea DeLaria), Erica “Yoga” Jones (Constance Shulman), Angie Rice (Julie Lake), Leanne Taylor (Emma Myles), Norma Romano (Annie Golden), Alison Abdullah (Amanda Stephen), Janae Watson (Vicky Jeudy), Brook Soso (Kimiko Glenn), Gina Murphy (Abigail Savage), and Anita DeMarco (Lin Tucci). Viewers get to find out where everyone lands in series finale “Here Is Where We Get Off,” which also includes a montage of characters viewers haven’t seen since the fifth season, when the inmates were separated and assigned to different federal prisons.

But none of it came easy, says executive producer Tara Hermann. No TV series had ever featured such a sprawling group of women, each with her own singular story, and in the final season, those women’s stories form the foundation of thoughtful and empathetic explorations of empowerment and growth, mental illness, death, and the country’s polarizing immigration policies.Ĭreator and showrunner Jenji Kohan decided in the fifth season that she would end the show after seven cycles, and the endgame planning began then. Orange Is the New Black may have sparked from Piper Kerman’s 2010 memoir about the 13 months she spent in federal prison on money-laundering charges, but the Netflix series thrived by looking beyond protagonist Piper Chapman’s story and toward the large, diverse group of women incarcerated with her. Spoilers ahead for the entirety of the final season of Orange Is the New Black.
