The third season of Orange Is The New Black is set to be released on June 12, but for those who want to get really specific (and possibly lose sleep) it should actually show up on Netflix at 3:01 a.m. ET/12:01 a.m. PT. So, sorry, East Coast viewers.
Those who stay up should find joy within. TIME critic James Poniewozik wrote in his review of the new season that it “kicks off less gloomy, and more flat-out funny, than the last year’s.”
Netflix’s release of another hit didn’t go off without a hitch this year when House of Cards‘ third season appeared on the site ahead of schedule.
If early episodes were to leak, we’d have to blame it on Pornstache.
Update: So much for waiting: Netflix released the season six hours early.
