Orange Is The New Black is renewed for Season 6 and 7, but how long will the comedy-drama serve?
Speaking to NY Times, creator Jenji Kohan confirmed that — as things stand — Season 7 will be the last in the Netflix series’ run, though she hasn’t completely closed the door on future chapters:
I haven’t made a final decision yet, but I’m leaning toward ending it after seven — although the nature of the show is one that can go on and on because you can bring in new people.
Kohan knows how the prison dramedy will end, but she’s naturally keeping it under wraps:
I think [I know how it ends]. And I will not share it.
Would you like OITNB to continue into Season 8, or is seven seasons about right?
Should the Season 7 end plans stick, the OITNB writers have plenty of time to craft the ending. Stay tuned for updates should OITNB ultimately extend its run with Season 8…

I quit watching after a whole season was dedicated to black lives matter.
Mona says
WOW, YOUR PRIVILEGE IS SHOWING.
Dennis says
no such thing as white privilege..which is why it’s so great that this show is being cancelled..it encourages a black
Lives Matter attitude as well..that group (BLM) is so far beyond reality it’s sad..Thank god this show is finally over..it’s totally Agenda themed from the first episode.
Suzanne says
Black Lives Matter was just a component of a larger storyline about for-profit prison systems. This is why Black Lives Matter is trying to get their message out. People like you aren’t listening, and never will as long as you see it as an affront to white people. And, no, I’m not black, I’m white. Not that that should matter.

Huh? Guess that shows what type of person you really are…sad
TC says
I will be sad that the series is ending, but I think it’s starting to stretch too thin. I hope that Piper & Alex do end up together in the end and are out of jail!
Mike Frost says
Would like to see the series continue or at least wrap up its loose ends and give the primary characters the ending they deserve. It’s been a great show and the fans deserve closure.
Tina says
I don’t want it to end I have loved every minute of it. That being said if your going to end it end it on an even number lol like 8
Kristy says
I can’t believe you are going to end this Drama Filled Series on a high leave us in the dark on where the ladies end up and what are the repercussions of what they did. Yes I think it went on for some of the series but as soon as I lose interest you went and hooked me back in. Please at least finish your ideas of what would happen if that did happen in real life or make believe world.

OITNB has gone downhill rapidly – I stopped watching after last season. I even tried to watch the first episode of the current season but its just horrible now.
LindsayDD says
Would obviously prefer 8-10 seasons but at least we know we’re getting 2 more. That should give them plenty of time to wrap everything up and not leave us hanging and wondering what happened to everyone.
Rebecca Henderson says
I hope that the viewers of Orange is the new Black can keep this show going. It’s a fabulous show that is very enjoyable to watch.
Mindy says
I love this show!!
