Netflix's Orange Is the New Black is having a great week, with the popular prison comedy-drama scoring award nominations all over the place.

'Orange Is the New Black' Star Uzo Aduba Says Season 3 Reveals 'A Greater Story' Being Told

The Golden Globes announced their nominations for the ceremony to be held in January, with Orange Is the New Black doing very well. The show is represented in three different categories:

The series was nominated for Best TV Series - Musical or Comedy alongside HBO's Girls, The CW's Jane the Virgin, HBO's Silicon Valley and Amazon Instant Video's Transparent.

Meanwhile, Taylor Schilling (who plays Piper Chapman) was nominated for Best Actress in a TV Series - Musical or Comedy. Her fellow nominees include Lena Dunham from Girls, Edie Falco from Showtime's Nurse Jackie, Julia Louis-Dreyfus from HBO's Veep and Gina Rodriguez from Jane the Virgin.

Uzo Aduba's (Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren) nomination is perhaps most impressive of all. The Golden Globes lump together TV dramas, comedies, TV movies and miniseries for the Supporting Actress category and the popular actress managed to score a nomination.

Aduba is competing against Kathy Bates from FX's American Horror Story: Freak Show, Joanna Froggatt from PBS's Downton Abbey, Allison Janney from CBS's Mom and Michelle Monaghan from HBO's True Detective.

As seen by Wednesday's SAG Award nominations, Aduba is having a great year. She won the Emmy for her role as Suzanne back in August and she was nominated in the Best TV Comedy Actor - Female category at the SAG Awards Wednesday. She now adds another nomination to her list.

It remains to be seen how Aduba, Schilling or the show does so fans will have to tune in on Sunday, Jan. 11 for the 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards at 8 p.m. on NBC. The awards will be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.
