The Top 10 Best Character On 'Orange Is The New Black'

This show is filled with interesting, captivating characters, but like any show, some truly are better than others.

"Orange Is the New Black" is by far one of the best shows that Netflix has ever had on it. It's full of female prison drama and multiple varieties of humor. I have yet to find many people who truly dislike this show, and I can safely say that one of the best parts of "OITNB" is the characters. This ranking goes from 10 to 1, which will end with the best character in my opinion as #1.

10. Chang

There have been zero times that I have not laughed when Chang has been in a scene. She makes absolutely no sense, and that's probably one of the reasons you just can't resist loving her.

9. Norma

Though she has nothing to say (ever), she is Red's sidekick and just so happens to be precious and remind you of a grandma. Everyone loves a good grandma-like character.

8. Lorna Morello

What a nut. Morello is one of the cuter inmates who may be borderline extremely crazy, but makes you laugh and smile whenever you see her. She also got married to a random man she met through prison mail, so she's got it goin' on.

7. Piper

It's hard not to love the main character of a show. She may get on your nerves when she tries to outdo her stereotype of a "rich, white female," but she's clever and truly makes "OITNB" what it is.

6. Daya

She's one of the sweeter ones whom you really feel for. You can't help but sympathize for Daya throughout her pregnancy (especially when Bennett leaves) and love her no matter what.

5. Red

If there is anyone you would want on your side while locked up, it's Red. She always has her girls' backs, and she's a crazy Russian lady, so she's naturally a combination of scary and hilarious.

4. Poussey

Chill is an understatement when it comes to Poussey. She's always down to clown, and her relationship with Taystee is exactly what you would want if you were in prison and needed a bestie.

3. Nicky Nichols

She's the baddest chick in the bunch. Never once has she been anything but the realest, and although she kinda fudges up with drugs every once in awhile, you can't help but still root for her.

2. Crazy Eyes

Everything that comes out of this character's mouth is pure gold. You never know what to expect, and that's one of the main reasons we all love her.

1. Taystee

She's everything you'd want to be if you were a prisoner in Litchfield. She's one of the funnier inmates who always makes you laugh because of her natural sass and witty comments and actually has a brain (even though she did land herself in prison).

Needless to say, "OITNB" is full of such amazing characters. The fact that it takes a year or more for a new season to come out is a whole other story, but there are genuinely very few reasons to dislike this show.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
