Last night's episode of CONAN was a rather thrilling one for fans, TBS and even host Conan O'Brien. The cast of Netflix's Orange Is the New Black stopped by to talk to the host about the show and the impressive impact it has had on not only viewers but also the culture. And of course, they had some fun in the process...

Before actors Taylor Schilling, Uzo Aduba, Natasha Lyonne, Laverne Cox, Kate Mulgrew, Jason Biggs and Lea Delaria took to the panel, the TBS series kicked off with the rare cold open, which featured O'Brien getting some hair tips from everyone's favorite hairdresser Laverne Cox (aka Sophia). During the segment, she attempts to give the comedian a much-needed makeover, claiming, "People are afraid of clowns!"

She later calls him an inspiration to those in the transgendered community (like Cox) because he's the first transgendered talk show host. Problem? He ... isn't. 

The bit then shifts to a totally Orange Is the New Black-inspired opening credits theme, introducing the cast, the host, sidekick Andy Richter and the Basic Cable Band.

Check out O'Brien's Orange Is the New Black cold open below:

Following the opener, the host invited each member of the cast to the couch to discuss the popular show. And after watching, we're not sure what was funnier: Lyonne's thorough rundown of her "job description" or everything Lea Delaria said during the segment. Of course, the Irish Jig wasn't too bad either.
