Trivia
Murphy uses color in the costumes and sets to represent themes: Yellow as Deception, Blue as Neutrality, Red as Wickedness, White as Purity, and Green as Honesty. Sometimes the costumes subtly change hue as one theme transitions to another.

Goofs
Roads at the time the series is set were not commonly painted in the modern fashion (double yellow "no passing" center lines and white lines along the shoulders).

Connections
Follows One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)

Ms Paulson was, as usual,

Perfect. That woman is one of the finest actors ever. She is so precise and delivers her dialog to perfection. Running her a close second in Ratched is the person who conceived and designed the sets and clothing. I got the distinct feeling that he/she designed and implemented every scene down to a gnat's eyelash. Cynthia Nixon was wonderful. And the color coordination of the clothing and scenery deserve a special shoutout. An all around great effort by Ryan Murphy and Netflix.
