Orange Is the New Black

Every time Piper goes to the phone, the same crying woman is at another phone.

Based on the 2010 memoir 'Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison', Piper Kerman's book about the 13 months of a 15-month sentence that she served at a federal correctional facility in Danbury, Connecticut. The show changes Kerman's last name to Chapman.

The title sequence features close-ups of the faces of real former inmates, including several brief shots of Piper Kerman, whose book was the basis for the TV series. Kerman is the one who blinks after Laura Prepon is credited.
