    I've now finished season 4 and am trying to decide whether or not to continue.
    The main problem I have is that the prison staff is so unrelentingly stupid/oblivious.

    How many murders remain unpunished as the warden says he can't do anything because he lacks "proof"?
    Who thinks it's a good idea to let warring prisoner coalitions build power bases via the job allocations (the Mob runs the kitchen, the Aryans run the mail, etc.)?
    Why is there no comprehensive video surveillance of the prison (there seem to be no end of hidden spots for illicit activities to occur)?
    Where does all the cash the prisoners flash come from?
    Do the CO's have an actual job description or is "standing around/taking bribes" it?

    Having sunk this much time into the series, it's inevitable I'll finish it off.
    Sucks being a completionist.

    By all means, I encourage you to finish it, and relish the result of what happens when writing gets right the fuck out of control.

    This was HBO hardcore drama in its infancy after all, and following series took note from that absolute fucking shambles.

    How can I resist logic like that?

    Cowboys vs Aliens is on TV and I gave a shot watching it until I realized I will hopefully never be that bored in my life to bother sitting through the whole thing.

    I am now sitting in the dark listening to paint dry and find that much better.

    I believe Partly Cloudy is worth 6 minutes of your time to watch. Enjoy!

    Olivia Wilde is nearly nude in it.

    Her real name is Olvivia Jane Cockburn, btw. I can't imagine why she's not using it.

    Nearly nude is another way of saying clothed.

    Maybe it didn't roll off her tongue properly or she had trouble spitting it out.

    I had a friend named Heath Cockburn,pronounced it Coburn and didn't get half the grief that young Master Stephen Bates did.
