"Our TV-guru Megan Angelo already told you exactly why you need to see this summer&amp;#x27;s best show, Orange Is the New Black, so I won&amp;#x27;t bore you with my praises and demands to go watch it right this second. (That said, you seriously need to see. It. Now.) What I will tell you is that I&amp;#x27;ve finally finished every episode (OMG, that ending). Now that I don&amp;#x27;t have any more new episodes to devour, I&amp;#x27;ve been gobbling up every factoid and newsy info about the show I can gather. So I&amp;#x27;m bringing my knowledge to you! Let&amp;#x27;s begin... 1) The show&amp;#x27;s creator, Jenji Kohan, interned for Henry Winkler in high school. (She&amp;#x27;s also created Weeds and worked on Gilmore Girls.) 2) Constance Shulman, who plays Yoga Jones, is the voice of Patti Mayonnaise on Doug! She even kind of looks like a grown-up Patti, don&amp;#x27;t you think? Also, she was in Fried Green Tomatoes: 3) THE Jodie Foster directed the season&amp;#x27;s third episode&amp;amp;#8212;&amp;quot;Lesbian Request Denied&amp;quot;&amp;amp;#8212;which reveals the backstory of transgender Sophia (played by real-life transgender woman Laverne Cox). @CarolynDreamSt ask and you shall receive. Me and #JodieFoster on the set of episode 3 of #OITNB which she directed. pic.twitter.com/3eCqKqfA&amp;amp;mdash; Laverne Cox (@Lavernecox) January 14, 2013 4) The show is shot at Kaufman Astoria Studios on the same soundstage as The Cosby Show and a floor below Sesame Street. And, fun fact for me, I live a few blocks away! Speaking of Astoria...Red&amp;#x27;s restaurant in her backstory scenes is a deli-bakery that I walk past every day. I got to see them film the show several times! (Careful: NSFW language if you watch this clip.) 5) When they&amp;#x27;re out of their prison uniforms, the cast is so cute! 6) The show is already slated for a season two! What&amp;#x27;s more, Taystee (Danielle Brooks) and Pennsatucky (Taryn Manning) have been promoted to series regulars. If you&amp;#x27;ve finished the series, then you know why Taryn in particular is interesting news. Please tell me you&amp;#x27;ve seen the show so we can obsessed in the comments together. P.S. For more fun facts, I suggest checking out Buzzfeed&amp;#x27;s list."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
