Orange Is the New Black is an American comedy-drama series created by Jenji Kohan. It is based on Piper Kerman's memoir, Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison (2010), about her experiences at FCI Danbury, a minimum-security federal women's prison. The series' first season premiered on July 11, 2013 on the streaming service Netflix.[1] Orange Is the New Black has been a significant success for Netflix, becoming its most-watched original series.[2][3][4] The series has received critical acclaim since its debut,[5][6] and many awards and nominations in both comedy and drama categories.
Orange Is the New Black has received 16 Emmy Award nominations and four wins. For its first season, the series received 12 Emmy Award nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, and Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series, winning three. After an Emmy rule change in 2015 classifying half-hour shows as comedies and hour-long shows as dramas,[7] the series received four Emmy nominations in drama for its second season, including Outstanding Drama Series, and Uzo Aduba won for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. Orange Is the New Black became the first series to receive Emmy nominations in both comedy and drama categories.[8] Aduba's win made her the first actress, and second actor ever, to win drama and comedy Emmy awards for the same role,[9] following her win for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series the previous year.
The series has also received six Golden Globe Award nominations, six Writers Guild of America Award nominations, a British Academy Television Award nomination, as well as four Screen Actors Guild Awards (including two for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series), four Critics' Choice Television Awards, two GLAAD Media Awards, a Television Critics Association Award, a Producers Guild of America Award, and a Peabody Award.

Peabody Awards
The Peabody Awards program recognizes distinguished and meritorious public service by American radio and television stations, networks, online media, producing organizations, and individuals. Honoring excellence, artistry, and ambition, the Peabody is awarded to about 30 to 50 winners annually from more than 1,000 entries.[25][26][27] Orange Is the New Black won a Peabody Award for "subverting our expectations of what a woman’s prison drama might be like", for its "complex, funny and perceptive exploration of race, class, power and the persistence of a ragged kind of hope – all centered in a failed prison system that incarcerates more people than at any other time in its history", and for "exposing a prison system shrouded in mystery and making it a place of possibility and connection."[28]
