When it comes to rewarding the best comedic cast on television, the SAG Awards often simply go with the biggest cast.

Interestingly enough, all four of these were also hour-long dramedies, which suggests SAG voters are more apt to give the prize to large casts when they’re also in large productions.
What does this statistic mean in terms of predicting the 2018 SAG Awards? “Orange is the New Black” once again boasts the biggest comedy cast with a record-setting 45 men and women nominated for the Netflix prison series.

Now that season five of Orange Is the New Black has premiered, you should be more familiar with Kelly Karbacz, who plays white supremacist leader Kasey Sankey. But if you've been wondering what she looks like outside of her khaki Litchfield jumpsuit, then look no further. While most of the characters on the Netflix show portray hardened women behind bars, the cast is a lot more glamorous in real life. Related70+ Awesome Snaps of the Oitnb Cast Being Real-Life Friends In fact, Kelly is nothing like her alter ego. Kasey is rough around the edges, and, well, pretty racist, while Kelly isn't used to saying and doing any of the things that her character does, making it very difficult for Kelly to play her. In a recent interview with Hidden Remote, Kelly opened up about what it's like playing Kasey, saying, "I do think she has a heart, and I do think that she's a complex character. She's challenging for me. Saying and doing these things are nothing like me in life, so it's difficult." Kelly then explained what she does to "bring her to life," adding, "What I do is try to find little ways to connect with her . . . to make her honest and truthful and tell the story that the writers want to tell.
