"Orange Is The New Black" is a TV show I have not seen, set in a prison for women. I did see an interview with a new star in it who is a "transgender woman of color" named Laverne Cox. She has a twin brother who plays her pre-transition on the show, I suppose in flashbacks. She is being billed as the first TG woman to be in a TV series, and the first TG woman of color to be on TV in a series.
Anyone seen any of the show? It's first season was apparently on NetFlix.

Saw it listed on Netflix but have not watched it yet. Another show on Netflix is Hit and Miss a BBC production. I did watch that. It was pretty good. Although the trans star was a contract killer. Not a good role model.
