I recently finished binge watching two seasons of "Orange Is The New Black" for 2 days non-stop. Since it may take a while before they finish filming season 3 I just focused my energy to write this on my blog. If you haven't watch OITNB spoiler alert I shared some of my favorite scenes here.
Here is my top 10 favorite characters from the Emmy nominated series "Orange Is The New Black". I ranked them based on how they gave life to the characters that they portray. Like after 10 years when you asked me about "Orange is the New Black" I would still recall them. Also, their character is so intriguing that I pause Netflix and Google / Wikipedia the characters to find out that they look completely different. I learn more about what other then I followed them on Instagram.
Two thumbs up for Jenji Kohan and Netflix for creating this amazing show.
10 Piper Chapman
I think she did great. She looks exactly the same like the real life Piper the author of the book "Orange is the New Black". Some people might disagree why she's on my number 10 list. I believe she is a good actress but if you replace her with other actress I would still be watching OITNB.
My favorite scene was after she was placed in isolation she learn to fight back and learn the ways of the prison. She was able to adapt to the conditions that she have. I liked when she made the chili oil for Red's back pain.

I liked her back story how she took care of her sisters when her mother was too "busy" with her boyfriend. I didn't like it when she have to use Pornstashe to clear her boyfriend's name. But, well we did some crazy things for love.

2. Sophia Burset
I love her back story when her wife helped her fit some dress and pleaded that she shouldn't do the surgery. I liked the actress that played as her wife and his twin brother who played the pre-surgery Sophia. I can feel that she really loved her wife but she stands with her decision to live as a woman. I respect her for that. Then she gave her wife the freedom to fall in love with other guy.
