 Alright, so I just finished binge watching season 6 of Orange is the New Black on Netflix and boy do I got a lot to say about it. So this video is going to be my review and reaction for the entire season so stay tuned. What is up everybody? This is Chris from the Rewired Soul where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution. So if you are new to my channel I have a mental health channel. My channel is dedicated to helping you with your mental and emotional well-being. Alright, but something I try to do is I try to pull from television, movies, maybe other YouTubers because everything can be something that we can take in and learn from and kind of reflect on and say okay what can I learn from this, how can I improve my mental health. So I try to take relevant you know content out there and try to teach lessons that might be able to help improve your mental health alright. So if that's something you're into make sure you hit that subscribe button alright but anyways so one of the last Netflix shows that I reviewed was 13 Reasons Why a lot of you came to my channel from those reviews so I'm thinking about doing some character breakdowns but anyways I want to kind of review the whole season but I do want to pluck a specific kind of mental health topic that we see throughout this season. So there will be spoilers so if you haven't seen all the episodes sorry there's going to be some spoilers but anyways go check them out come back or whatever you got to do but if you don't care about spoilers just stay with me stay with me here. So anyways season 6 picks up where in the last season we had the prison riot okay the women's prison over at Lichfield they went on a riot and you know they were keeping the guards captive and all that kind of stuff in season 6 they are now at the maximum security prison okay it's a lot rougher a lot tougher a lot harder inmates and things like that but kind of the overall topic and what I kept seeing over and over from all the different characters is just paying the consequences for their actions alright so I talked about on my channel a few times about this internal locus of control okay this locus of control realizing that the things I do have results okay and these can be positive or negative and this is something that like we saw so many struggles from almost all of the characters almost all of the characters that their actions have consequences now I guess you could say that for anybody who's in prison right your actions have consequences but this is really interesting because like I've never really seen this in a show and maybe it's just because I don't watch many shows about prison like I didn't watch Oz or anything but now there's consequences for what they did in prison that's extending sentences or having more punishments and things like that so a lot of our characters while feeling justified in their actions for that riot they're experiencing the consequences and having a lot of regret one of my favorite quotes of all time is this we make decisions based on self which later places in a position to be hurt okay so the way this is something for you to learn from is when we're emotionally fueled right whether it's because we're angry usually it's anger or because of love or whatever it is the actions we take may hurt us later on in life so the the prison riot you know obviously there was some unjust stuff going on over at Lichfield there was a death of Poussé back in season four and that triggered a lot of emotions right so in response to that they had this prison riot right and they also held CO's captive and made all these demands and different characters had different reasons for what they were doing and things like that people like tasty we're trying to make change but even tasty is seeing the consequences of her actions here right but there are a few different characters that really had a lot of consequences for their actions I kind of want to focus on red okay so red she's the mama bear okay she's she's like the mother to a lot of the inmates there and she's had a lot of interesting story arcs throughout the seasons but what I really want to look at is her dynamic with Frida okay so throughout the season we see a lot of people turning on each other writing people out some people like Cindy for example aka Tova she she lied in order to protect herself which then had consequences for her best friend tasty and things like that so I'm like I said I might do some more character breakdowns but in the example of red okay so red felt very justified in her actions and what she did all right so Piscotella ended up dying and things like that but anyways so part of what red was doing red was seeking revenge okay red was seeking revenge against Piscotella red is bald for most of the season because of what Piscotella did alright so there's a certain point where Frida Frida she is trying to protect her own butt and she's trying to get moved to they call it Florida which is the nice kind of like it's for like old people or trans people you know there's not a lot of violence that goes on in this Florida block okay but anyways Frida did that to save her own butt and we could also say that Frida is also seeing the consequences of action she had like 30 years ago because Frida is trying to hide because she's afraid she's gonna get murdered but anyways as a result of that red gets 10 more years so there's also an interesting kind of conversation about what family is what real family is and things like that red is very big about family and in this season red is hurt red is hurt by all these different people turning their backs on her one of them is Nikki Nikki is somebody who red helped out a lot but red actually respects what Nikki did because Nikki came to red and is like look I have to tell him what happened I have to be honest about this and you know as a recovering addict I can understand why Nikki did that but also Nikki had to do it you know to save her own butt too but red respected that but Frida red sees Frida as just this line conniving you know just terrible person and red is now out for revenge again not learning from her actions okay like something like you guys we're all gonna screw up we're all gonna mess up we're all gonna make decisions based on ourselves based on our emotions but we need to like next time we run into that we got to say oh wait the last time I acted out of revenge the last time I acted out of anger I had these consequences right so once red kind of you know realizes that these people aren't real family she starts to focus her attention more on her real family right so she calls her son and her son's like hold on I'll go get that and red's like no I just want to talk to you how is everything you never come see me and that all these things right and she's like I want you to come visit right so red ends up following in the wrong crowd right she follows follows Carol around it becomes friends with Carol and Carol has her own little feud going on but Carol really fuels red's idea of revenge and red you know she wants Frida dead too right like this revenge in her mind she wants Frida dead so like it's crazy to me and this is one of the most heartbreaking things to me so red gets a surprise visit she gets some surprise visitors it's her son and her grandbaby that she's never met in her entire life and she's going to see her son and her grandbaby and focus on the real family this is the thing that she wants but as she's walking down the hallway she encounters Frida and because red cannot control her emotions because red wants revenge so bad red goes and attacks Frida she attacks Frida start strangling her and yelling at Frida right and guess what happens red gets dragged off she doesn't get to see her son she doesn't get to see her baby or her grandbaby rather right and then red goes to solitary confinement alright and like man I'm just like I get that I've been there those of you who haven't known me for over six years some of you haven't even known me that long I used to be such an angry and spiteful person but because of my anger because of my revenge filled thoughts I kept getting myself in more trouble and because of this I was hurting myself as well as the people around me I didn't realize that because I was driven so much by my emotions by my anger by my revenge I was making things worse but the problem was I was delusional because I kept blaming the rest of the world this is why I keep talking to you about that internal locus of control like in red's mind it's not her fault that she wasn't able to see her son and grandbaby it's not her fault that now her son and family isn't gonna want to come visit her again red's gonna think that that's not her fault it's free this fault right and until we start taking responsibility for our actions nothing gets better nothing gets better and this is something that we keep seeing throughout this season with different characters some characters learn from this some characters didn't you know what I mean but I really want you to take from this and ask yourself is your anger is your revenge attitude is being rude to people are these things beneficial to you or are they not beneficial to you because if they're not you really need to audit your life and check in with yourself me like man these are some things I need to work on because all they do is make matters worse alright but anyways that's what I want to talk about with season 6 it was a great show it was a great season like I love I love this show I love this show so much something I do love I love that it's kind of evolved away from Piper and we get more focus on other characters and stuff like that I love that throughout all the seasons I love seeing different backstories here's something I'll mention here's something I'll mention before I let you go to like one thing I love about this show is it increases empathy right so as a drug addict and alcoholic in recovery I've met thousands and thousands of people who are drug addicts and alcoholics and like there's so many judgments against drug addicts and alcoholics and people don't know their past what I love about this show is there's a stigma about people in prison and who are locked up and like we get to see their backstories and see what happened what happened in their life that turned them into the person that they are today and I think like you know even though it's a fictional show obviously we really get to empathize with that I think that's so important like we got to learn like everybody has a different story and once we sit down and actually listen and understand what happened to these people we start to empathize a little bit and like man like this person had a really messed up childhood or their abusive relationship while it's not an excuse we start to understand what can lead to that path and I think that's important especially as a parent like I see these things I'm like man especially for my old childhood my man I got to be a better parent to my kid alright but anyways here's what I want you all to do okay if you're a fan of Orange is the New Black I want you to leave comments down below who would you like me to do character breakdowns of or different story lines and things like that what would you like to see because I already have a bunch I got them written down on my phone so like one of them that I'm like 99.9% sure that I'm gonna make is CEO Makola she is one of the CEOs who was held hostage and she has PTSD this PTSD is leading to self-harming behavior is leading to substance abuse so I do want to talk about that that once I think a really good video that I want to do next one is Daya Daya develops an addiction in that I want to talk about that I don't think it's entirely realistic even though it kind of is but there's some things I want to talk about with that Ruiz this is another one that I'm pretty sure I'm gonna make a video on Ruiz's path towards redemption trying to redeem herself and things like that trying to find spirituality or religion whatever you want to call it I want to talk about that some other ideas I have Cindy Cindy's lies for tasty even lying by omission with relationships I think some relationships that might be interesting to talk about is the dynamic between Piper and Alex there's some toxic things there and stuff but really pinch a tucky and dog it that's a good one to talk about the other idea I have is man the feud between Barbara and Carol like whoo-hoo girl I could do a whole video about that anyways those are some of the topics that I'm just kind of tossing around but for any of you who have watched season 6 leave comments down below let me know what kind of videos you'd like me to make alright but anyways that's all I got for you today if you liked this video please give it a thumbs up if you are new
