New Challenger of the Day: Netflix Original Series "Orange is The New Black" is the New Black

A relatively unknown Netflix original series released earlier this month has outperformed every single show the video streaming service has provided. In its first week, the women's prison drama Orange is the New Black beat out hyped-up shows like House of Cards and even Arrested Development, all without the help of any advertising. Netflix has refused to reveal the actual viewership numbers but did admit that more than 75 percent of the show's viewers came via the site's recommendation algorithms.
