I love everything about this... the source, the offer, the ridiculous responses it is generating....Dammit, if this happens I will finally watch porn on the internet just to show my appreciation.

Netflix may not be willing to give up the rebroadcast rights on S1, S2 and the allegedly forthcoming 2hr movie.
They may also avoid doing business with xhampster just on general principle to avoid offending a portion of their viewer base (who rewatch the lesbian sex scenes on OitNB weekly).

We psyched and i do hope they can pull it off to a satisfactory conclusion. Even beyond Wolfie captured there are a LOT of hanging plotlines to wrap if they can.
Ideally we get two hours of solid storytelling with scenes of Sun beating large men senseless roughly every fifteen minutes.
Also, Capheus driving, Naomi and her hacker possee hacking, at least two scenes where one of the 'weaker' members is in trouble and shifts between Will, Wolfie and Sun to utterly kick ass, Kala making at least six bombs, minimum 22 minutes of Lito/'nando/Dani so i can remember the spin-off sitcom we deserved but never got,and Riley... i don't fucking know, playing EDM and getting high or something ....
ETA ...also, the African clusters and please for the love of god little/no Darryl Hannah...

TOMORROW!
Wife and I both have the day off with weekend plans that fell through, so we are going to watch SENSE8 in the morning, and hit up DEADPOOL 2 in the afternoon!

Aaaaaaaand done!
FINALE SPOILERS
SPOILERS
SPOILERS8
Satisfying end. There are parts i felt were rushed, parts i felt were unnecessary, but overall it was a solid wrapto a fun series i will miss.
WILL got his leader moments and mandatory badassitude bit. No huge character developments there but what he did worked.
RILEY, same. She got a bit more into her roles as the purported heart of the cluster,but i would have preferred more EDM and gratuitous drug use.
LITO... was basically himself and did very little. Honestly DANI and NANDO probably did more and got more development than Lito did, which is fair since his storyline at least had run its course. Dani's moment of badass withWhispers was epic.
NOMI gave us the hacking we wanted and deserved, and NITA and BUG held up their ends admirably.The wedding was a fairly blatant tearjeker ploy, but worked well enoug has a conclusion, unnecessary/obligatory orgy notwithstanding.
KALA did not piss me off once in this episode, which is almost unthinkable. Her chemist moments were fun, and i give them credit for the way they went with Rajan and Wolfie instead of the more obvious outcomes of either killing Rajan or having him turn out to be a bad guy.
WOLFIE was awesome.
SUN was awesome, and hey, even got a happy ending w Detective Muksomething.
CAPHEUS was awesome.Credit to the actor who picked up the role, he really captured the character's sheer energy and joy.
JONAS got what he deserved, and did not suck. DARRYL HANNAH was not annoying, but her whole backstory was muddled and messy.
I can walk away happy with this end.

Probably one of, if not my all time fave moment in the whole 2.5 hours. Easily. But then I LOVE Dani as a character.

I loved how Nomi and Nita's "vows" were the Wachowski's speaking through the characters meta about the show itself. Well played. And Nomi's mom on brownies was awesome.

WOLFIE was awesome.
Always is, and the denouement of his story tying into his earlier killing of his uncle, which we now know was about complicitness in Wolfie's past with his dad was well done!

She's always so pithy with her comments. It's awesome.

While I liked the actor who played the role in S1, I think the new actor won me over more to Capheus as a whole , especially with regards to his political plot line. Solid stuff.

Yep. While I wish there was more seasons of this, I can be happy we got everything mostly tied up and I'm happy.
