Killed it in S4 of Orange

I have never doubted her acting skills before. She has only continuously outdone herself each season but in S4? My goodness. She nailed all of the scenes she was given even though she barely had any screen time. I am still perplexed as to why she has never been rewarded for her work. The Emmys has rewarded Uzo twice already for playing basically crazy which in S4 has shown to be rather one-note to the point of irritating. Taylor on the other hand has struck this fantastic balance of comedy and drama in a way that I haven't seen many actresses on TV do before. I hope the Emmys and the Golden Globes will give her the recognition she deserves next year. It's about high time.

Her character's importance is getting smaller and smaller, there is so Larry storyline anymore, very few scenes with Alex spread out and surely they still aren't pushing her lead for award consideration?

Doesn't matter how small her role is. Her acting this season was phenomenal, and should be treated as such. People are judging the actor by the character. Her writing last season was not the best which pushed a lot of people away from Piper, but whether you enjoyed her character this season or not, she acted incredibly well. The corn field scene alone is award worthy. She deserves to be credited for it.
