What’s This TV Show About?
A Netflix comedy-drama, Orange Is the New Black stars Taylor Schilling, Laura Prepon, Michael Harney, Kate Mulgrew, Uzo Aduba, Danielle Brooks, Natasha Lyonne, Taryn Manning, Selenis Leyva, Adrienne C. Moore, Nick Sandow, Yael Stone, Lea DeLaria, and Dascha Polanco. The series follows Piper Chapman (Schilling), a New Yorker, whose wild past comes back to haunt her.

On February 5, 2016, Orange Is the New Black was renewed through its seventh season. That will be the end of the show. Season seven debuts July 26, 2019. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Unless Netflix releases its viewership numbers, we have no ratings to track for shows like Orange Is the New Black. Since Netflix renewed OITNB for seasons five, six, and seven, back in February of 2016, we don’t have to worry about it being cancelled too soon. Since it has been one of the most streamed Netflix shows, making other dinner plans seems prudent. Still I’ll keep my eyes on this TV series and update with any developments.
