Spoiler Alert, but sadly Laura Prepon character Alex only appears in four episodes this season. However we can breathe a sigh of relief as her character will appear in every episode of season three of Orange Is the New Black.
I totally fell in love with Prepon in the first season of OITNB, as she played former lover of Piper (Taylor Schilling), but felt very disheartened to see that she would be making only a few appearances in season two. But she will be back in full force for season three.
“It sucked because [show creator] Jenji Kohan and I wanted me to be in it more, but with the schedule, it didn’t happen. I was so bummed out. But I handled it, so I’m in every [episode] in season three. It is so good.”
