The series has often dealt with corruption within the criminal justice system - particularly within the Litchfield prison itself. Cox continues to be grateful for the experience of acting alongside women of all shapes and sizes.
"I'm so grateful to be a part of this show that's changed my life and has unprecedented diversity of women on television," she said.
As for the Golden Globes, the show was nominated in Best Television Series - Comedy or Musical as was Uzo Aduba (who plays Suzanne Warren) for Best TV Supporting Actress but ended up going empty-handed on Sunday. Regardless, Cox talked about partying it up anyway.
"We always celebrate together," Cox said. "We're such an amazing family and I love love love working with these incredible women."
Orange Is the New Black season 4 is expected to drop this summer on Netflix.
