What to watch after Wentworth

One day about 2 months ago I was surfing Netflix hoping to find something good to watch and landed on Wentworth. The description sounded interesting and started watching it. Little did I know that I will be hooked to the series, I ended up watching the whole season 9 in a week although I didn’t sleep much, lol.

The show was aired in 2013 and was an instant hit. It is a story about Bea Smith who was wrongfully convicted and was sent to prison. She fights to survive the gangs ruling the prison, she tries to stay in touch with her teenage daughter from the prison but the daughter is killed, she takes revenge and ends up being life-sentenced and manages to become the boss of the prison. It is a wonderful show about a woman who uses her strength to become the leader of the women in prison. You’ve got to watch it if you haven’t, and if you have then here are a few that are very much like Wentworth.

Orange is the new black
Next in line is Orange is the new black which is streamed on Netflix again. It is an American comedy-drama made by Jenji Kohan and is based on the memoir by Piper Kerman. It is about a young girl who is sent to prison for 15 months for a crime she committed decades ago. The story is captivating and you’ll see how she survives in the prison after coming from a privileged background.

Escape at Dannemora
This is again an American limited series directed by none other than the very talented Ben Stiller. It has seven episodes and is based on a true story of the 2015 Clinton Correctional Facility escape in New York. Each episode of the show is gripping and takes you into the life of prisoners and guards to force you into empathizing with them. The reality of the scenes and the storyline are blended together with perfection. It is a story about two convicted murderers who escaped from prison with the help of a married female prison staff whom they both get sexually entangled. The show is worth watching.

Locked Up
This is yet again an amazing show with zero dull moments. It is a prison show but very differently themed. It has some of the best Spanish actors which makes it worth watching. The show was originally titled in Spanish as Vis a Vis which means face to face. It is a story about a young and simple girl who falls in love with her boss and commits a series of crimes to keep him happy but when the time comes she has to pay the price. The show will force you to be judgmental of the characters but you will surely change your point of view by the end.

Animal Kingdom
This is a great show for people who like to live in a fantasy world. It is about a 17-year-old Joshua who goes to live with his grandmother and uncles after his mother’s death. Little did he know he gets involved in their shady business of crime led by his grandmother Smurf. You will get to watch a lot of thrilling actions, and heists not to mention some hot scenes. Although it is not a prison show but has some crazy twists and family wars that will keep you engrossed.
