'Orange is the New Black' Season 3 Early Release on Netflix: Watch It Now!

Season 3 of Orange is the New Black was one of the most highly anticipated returns Netflix has seen. Fans waited for that special day when the show would return and it's because of this that the online streaming service decided to bring it back ahead of schedule. The beauty of the Internet strikes again. You couldn't do this with network television or cable because of the strict scheduling they are forced to follow. This will certainly set a television precedent on how premieres will take place in the future.

Nobody saw its return coming. The big announcement was made at #OrangeCon - an event held specifically for the Netflix exclusive in New York. Members of the cast at #OrangeCon told their followers to start streaming the show a few hours earlier.

Not only is Orange is the New Black back, it was renewed for a fourth season. The next season might also be making its return early just as season three did. For now, we'll just have to finish up the new season before that happens.

Orange is the New Black has several accolades under its belt. For one, it has more viewing hours than both House of Cards and Arrested Development. It has also won multiple awards. It won two Emmys in 2014 for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series, Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series and Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing for a Comedy Series. It was also nominated for several Golden Globes.

Now that Orange is the New Black is back will you be tuning in? Are there any other shows on Netflix you'll be checking out? Let us know in the comments section.
