Can anyone explain how David’s slip-up escalated the situation so fast for Abner in his Pod? So what if it’s a Kinfolk and a Chicano? Is it really not plausible to the inmates that David and Abner could have known each other outside of Jail and coincidentally got locked up together?

I’m a bit puzzled how the inmates were able to piece together the whole undercover thing and already get to planning to jump Abner. Like sure it could raise some suspicion, but AB had quite a bit of respect in there. Surprised how quickly one little rumor spreading instantly put a target on his back.

Does it have to do with all the cameras? Like are the inmates generally aware of 60 Days In and David’s slip-up made them realize that was what the cameras were for?

Who’s your favorite contestant from season6? Im going to say Tony Hands Down

Tarnished the Badge: the Jamey Noel Story

Please don't ask me how I confirmed this is the exact guy receiving fellatio from DeAndre. There's a whole separate post if you're interested in my unhinged Nancy Drew sleuthing. But truthfully…this was out of pocket to begin with, and I’m truly ashamed of how I choose to spend my free time.

Season 1

I am appalled at the behavior of those corrections officers they could care less what goes on in that place. They do nothing and they do it well

Look, I know this is incredibly out of pocket, but I simply cannot let it go. Am I the only one who went completely feral trying to figure out who DeAndre was hooking up with?
I fully turned into a forensic investigator. I’m talking pausing the episode, squinting aggressively at the screen, and manually tweaking my TV’s brightness settings. I am genuinely embarrassed to admit how unhealthy this is, but hey, this is just how I choose to fill the grueling hours of my day 😭.
Anyway, my unhinged spiraling actually paid off because I noticed something. Did anyone else catch how they conveniently blurred out that one specific inmate and the wall numbers? The producers really thought they were being slick, but I'm placing all my bets on that blur being DeAndre’s... well, I use the term "lover" very loosely here, but you get the vibe.
Listen, I went full conspiracy theorist on this. I was snapping photos of my TV, mapping out the cell blocks, and tracking which inmates lived where. I spent an amount of time on this accidental side quest that I will absolutely never admit to my therapist.
Long story short: after far too much unsolicited detective work, I’m pretty sure I actually figured out who it is. Does anyone actually want the tea, or should I just log off and go touch some grass?

Update:Okay, I am back with visual evidence because my unhinged spiraling actually paid off. I'm attaching a picture of the guy I am 99.9% sure is our mystery man. I am genuinely embarrassed to admit how unhealthy this is, but hey, this is just how I choose to fill the grueling hours of my day (shoutout to depression). Anyway, here is how all the dots connected and corroborated.
The producers dropped the ball early on and there were a couple of slip-ups where they completely forgot to blur some of the inmates out in the background. We know the hookup happened in the cell while Isaiah was sleeping, and if you look at the footage during that scene, you can see Isaiah’s head, which confirms without a doubt that they were in cell 3D-4. Then, I went back and re-watched every episode from when they got moved to the second pod, and I noticed a glaring pattern where they kept aggressively blurring out this one specific guy.
If you cross-reference the guy getting the witness-protection blur in the second pod with the unblurred slip-ups of the inmates we know were assigned to cell 3D-4, everything lines up perfectly. Behold, the photo attached. I rest my case. Please validate my wasted hours in the comments.

For anyone interested, this popped up on YT today.

You all know that right? That was the most laid back jail in the whole series IMO.

I started watching with season nine, then season seven, and now I have finished seasons one and two. Man this show is addicting, hilarious, and so fun to watch.

But it seems like the people in charge of the jails already know what the issues are before the show even starts, and everyone who actually tries to find drugs or get involved end up being reprimanded for doing exactly what they were asking the participants to do. It makes no sense. Carlos is a prime example. It doesn't seem like they actually want to improve or change the jails at all. The people in charge of the jails seem proud to have nasty and violent jails.

TV is for entertainment and this show is very entertaining. But it doesn't seem like they have any care of improving the jails. You don't need to hire participants to tell you what's wrong. Just walk in the jail or watch the video cameras and use your own eyes. The issues are glaring.

IMHO.

They both had alpha syndrome. They wanted to be the most attractive woman in the show. This created friction. Scarlett had her mission on focus Nina actively worked to undermine Scarlett. That meant pulling A.B to her side leaving Scarlett to have to go solo, which both Nina and A.B took umbridge with. Even when Scarlett was trying to Support A.B Nina stepped in to tear Scarlett down. This overall made Scarlett look bad, which was Nina's plan.

Look at how arrogant Nina's attitude was toward Fabian she did not take into account Fabian was racially profiled. Had Nina been targeted like that she would have quit too.

The producers did themselves no favors. The one guard they all had issues with was a straight up racist. Then they edited all the conversation to lift Nina up and tear Scarlett down when Scarlett actually did what they asked them all to do and had receipts to report but they silenced her.

You’d think as a woman she’d understand that the inmates would want to talk to their kids. And making noise on top of that. I hope she’s been let go after that.

Maybe this isn’t ground breaking, but I think the reason Tony was as good as he was, was because of his experience as a CO. He knew how to gain intel and gain contraband without losing himself because he’s 1. Not a for former convict and 2. Not a random dude of the street. He’s a CO that knows how prison politics works and knows how inmates think. I can watch this dude all day. The way he’s able to do the work in there is bar none.

He was scared, he absolutely was terrified. He was a waste of tv space 🤷‍♀️ when they asked him if he has mental illness I f’ing laughed so hard!

Okay, so I’m watching earlier seasons for the first time, and I just finished Season 4. Honestly, to me, Matt was hilarious. And not sure if there are any Office fans in the group, but he very much gave me DeAngelo Vickers vibes. 🤣 that’s it, that’s the post.

So I’m way late in watching this show.. obviously. But I just started binging and I was curious to know if anybody had any information on season one cast members and where they are now? I tried googling, Insta, and TikTok, and can’t find much information. Anyone know anything? Thanks in advance!

Hi! I am new here. Horrified and fascinated and instantly hooked.

I am watching on Pluto in the uk. It is like a 24 hr channel and it just rolls through the episode. I am watching Quintin and Monalisa right now, but the previous episode was with Robert who I know was S1.

Is there a list of contestants versus seasons as I am lost. Monalisa's season seems much later than S2. Yesterday I was watching an ep with an inmate called Bullrider. Please help

& it seems like he has been staying out of trouble & just focusing on music. I believe he opened a show for YFN Lucci a few months and he has 3 music videos with 1mil+ views so he has been kind of successful. Hopefully he stays on the right path. His relationship with Matt was kind of cool.

I’ve never seen this show before, so I started with season 9. finished, didn’t know any different. only season 7 (missing season 8) is on Hulu. anyways I started 7 and it’s INSANE how cushy season 9 was!!! omg I’m dying at how soft it was!!!!

After two years of nothing. And rewatching Narcoland. What would be some good spin offs of this show? Me personally I would want to see A Rehab season. Knowing that some rehabs in America are corrupt and drugs are smuggled in and people runway I would love to see volunteers go in and see hav the rehabilitation system is.

Scarlet..! - Like holy shit. She just thought she could bully people out of her cell like nothing. I give her credit for pulling it off but damn seeing her do that was a mix of “wow you are brave” but also I feel like if she pulled that in a rougher jail she would have gotten into a physical altercation quick!

Corey - Weird question here. Do they do mental health screenings of their candidates before letting them onto the show? Dude really could have benefited from one. I kinda felt bad honestly. Jail is a really hard place and having mental issues makes it exponentially worse.

Qwell - Honestly dude was pretty smart . Shut the hell up, kept his head down, made it though. I did find it really dumb that the goal they gave him was to “find drugs” isn’t that a huge risk to tell a person “hey go be a mole for a tv show in a jail.”

Fabian - I found it funny how he talked a ton of shit only to find himself basically screwed in the end. Dude talked non stop about how he was a top dog only to get locked in a cage but also he was also acting crazy towards the guards. Like hello if you are in a confined space with people the last thing you need to do is piss anyone off that could make your life hell. On a side note being on solitary for 3 days straight sucks but at least he could see what time of day it was.

Daniel. Honestly I don’t have much to say aside from if you are going to file a grievance and you know you have a fixed window left before your out why not wait until one of the last days before your out or talk about strategies to overcome that asshole guard with other inmates

A.B. Honestly homies vibe was chill but i did find it surprising that she had no idea they don’t care about healthcare no where nearly as highly on the inside as they do on the outside.

Nina. Not much to say but damn I felt like she knew what she was getting into more than anyone else. But she works in bail bonds so It makes sense she knows her clients well.

Anyway those are my random thoughts on this season.

So I’m on season 1 episode 6 and half these people are pissing me off. How is a cop in there crying about not having friends? How is a teacher damn near acting like he’s on vacation in solitary confinement? How is a marine practically begging to go home??? It’s like they missed the plot. & then the stay at home mom just swore up and down that prisoners eat good and have it made while paying no bills. I couldn’t wait for her rude awakening lol

before the judgement... I know, I know, lol, I might just be bored, mainc, or watching too much Love After Lockup, but I've been watching this show for a while. It's definitely in my top 5 right now. And of course, I have a crush on Kody from seasons 1 & 2. It's so sad to know he's back in jail for MURDER! I'm contemplating writing to him. Has anybody written a letter to someone from the show before?
