When Orange is the New Black returns, viewers will be seeing even more of Poussey Washington, played by Samira Wiley.

 

For the prison dramedy?s third season, Wiley will be promoted to series regular, EW has confirmed. Wiley has appeared on nearly every episode of the show so far ? and fan-favorite Poussey has had an expanded role in season 2.
 
This means viewers will get more of Taystee and Poussey together, right?

Mary Steenburgen is going to serve time on Orange is the New Black Season 3, Mashable confirms.

 
Steenburgen, whose most recent TV gigs included parts on Justified and Wilfred, broke the news on Twitter but failed to clarify whether she'd actually be serving time as an inmate, only teasing coyly, "Will I be in orange or black?"

Warden?

Maybe she'll be the new deputy warden.

That might make an interesting storyarc: a fight between her and Caputo for the job. Maybe she's hired an an auditor of the prison or someone to clean up the mess from this seasons finale. She'll certainly have her work cut out for her!

Yael Stone Upped To Regular On ?Orange?

Another heavily recurring on Netflix?s Orange Is the New Black lady has been promoted to regular for Season 3. Yael Stone, who has appeared in virtually every episode of the prison dramedy, will continue to play the chipper, optimistic and psychotic inmate Lorna Morello. She is repped by  Gersh, Andy Corren and Shanahan in Australia.
 

So when they are promoted to series regulars, their name appears in the opening credits?

Pretty sure it means more than just that. They may already appear in the opening credits as guests, but a season regular would indicate that they'll have more screen time.

I figure it meant they got more screen time (and more money).  Most of the actors that's been promoted to series regulars for season 3 already have a lot of screen time though.  I mean their names will appear during the theme song.  I don't see how they will all fit, unless they are bumping some past regulars to special guest stars.

Mary Steenburgen Joins 'Orange Is the New Black' Season 3

Now, it?s time to find out which character will get to call her ?mom.?

Ready? Drumroll please?

It?s Pornstache!

Yes, Steenburgen has been given the unfortunate task of loving one of the Netflix comedy?s least lovable characters, TVLine has learned exclusively. But hey, isn?t that what moms are for?

Netflix Calls '######' on 'Orange Is the New Black' Cancellation Rumors

 

In a world where readers sometimes only scan the headlines to get their news, an Orange Is the New Black hoax posted on a satirical news site fooled many fans of the Netflix series.

 
The satirical story, which went up on Friday and eventually turned into a social media rumor, claimed Netflix had canceled the production of Season 3 and planned to remove the first two seasons because of the lack of male leads on the show.
 
Fed up with the rumors, Netflix responded in the best way possible online, stealing the memorable "######" line from OITNB's Tasha "Taystee" Jefferson. Even one of the show's actors, Michael Harney (who plays Sam Healy in the show), chimed in.

    • If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
