I also assumed they got a tissue sample or something from Kira. Is Mrs. S still hiding stuff? I got the feeling she was during that scene with her and Paul, she knows things.
At this point, I think we can always assume she's hiding something.I also assumed they got a tissue sample or something from Kira. Is Mrs. S still hiding stuff? I got the feeling she was during that scene with her and Paul, she knows things.
They could do anything with her character at this point and I'd believe it. She could end up secretly being the head of this whole operation and I'd buy it. She could also be nothing more than we already know she is, and I'd buy it. The actress plays it pretty close to the vest and it works. She definitely feels real compassion for Sarah and Kira, but that's the only thing I'm sure of.At this point, I think we can always assume she's hiding something.I also assumed they got a tissue sample or something from Kira.

Kind of like Delphine, I think we can trust her to be on our girls' side, but she pretty much always hiding something

I think I know where the show is going.So, Dyad must've gotten a DNA sample from Kira somehow?
Seems like the military must be behind this somehow, trying to use the clones to breed super-soldiers or something. Whatever it is, Paul obviously knows a lot more than we thought.
We need more Helena in bars sharing pork rinds and kick the #### out of people.

Cosima
Helena's been kicking ### lately and moved up...
Rachel scene with the chair bumped her a notch for me
Fully aware that most will have their list almost reversed from mine...
Yeah, I definitely had some Helena withdrawal. Hopefully, Prothethean blood is filling the streets next week. I was sure that was her with the fuzzy jacket hood behind Leekie when he came out of the building.A week without Shakira Maslany is a sad week.
The show's in a bit of a lull right now as far as effectiveness, but I'll stay forever just for Maslany. One positive about this show: it doesn't make us wait too long for stuff to get wrapped up.
Okay, Vic is going to double cross Alison - Alison finds out in about 20 minutes.
Okay, Delphine is going to keep this big Kira secret from Cosima, which lasts about half an episode.
That's great: the beauty of a 10-episode season, I suppose, that we don't have to deal with that sort of stuff being dragged on for weeks.
Of course the risk is there down the road, but I don't see how you'd already be worried about that yet.I hope the show has an end game in mind. It has the potential/risk to go the x-Files/Lost route and just start meandering...
Only for you big guy.Oops anyway, i was drinking and read that as psycho homosexual extremistThey were supposed to "dramatize" it.My LinkI had to rewind it twice to make sure I heard it right. The young Prolethean who was chasing Helena has the same name as me. I'm a psycho homicidal extremist.
A couple weeks late, but I'll certainly take it. Especially with the flair that only Helena can provide.Yeah, I definitely had some Helena withdrawal. Hopefully, Prothethean blood is filling the streets next week.A week without Shakira Maslany is a sad week.

I wondered when/if we'd find out about male clones.nice twist!
The meeting with Paul in the hangar/warehouse whatever was confusing until the reveal. When they showed the guy doing pullups I thought at first it might be a Felix clone. Would have been kind of crazy for Mrs S to have raised one clone from each project. Mark being the clone should be crazy enough and now Mark is out there getting married.I wondered when/if we'd find out about male clones.nice twist!
I love this damn show. I wish we could've gotten more Helena/Cosima/Sarah/Alison time.
Or naked Donnie butt. (You may not be there yet but that's not a huge spoiler)totally enjoying this, but a few episodes behind.
count me in as another who completely buys the lead actress in the various roles... but this Tony thing may have jumped the shark. Big fan of Natasha and soccer mom. Gay friend/brother gets some good/funny lines, but I don't look forwrad to seeing any more naked painting.
In the bar, Paul asked Mark if he was ex-military, and Mark smiled and said "boy scouts" (which we later learned is a lie).The meeting with Paul in the hangar/warehouse whatever was confusing until the reveal.

It seemed to me at the time they were "comfortable" together as if they'd met before.

Time for me to do some reading.Apparently Leda had 4 offspring from 2 eggs: : Castor and Clytemnestra from one egg, fathered by Tyndareus, and Helen and Pollux from the other, fathered by Zeus.
Castor and Pollux are the "gemini twins"
I really don't know much about Roman/Greek Mythology, but I assume for those that do, the Castor part made it clear some male clones were inbound.
Yeah, I was thinking that as well with Kira/Cosima. Not sure. She obviously has some special genes/DNA.In the bar, Paul asked Mark if he was ex-military, and Mark smiled and said "boy scouts" (which we later learned is a lie).The meeting with Paul in the hangar/warehouse whatever was confusing until the reveal.

Yeah, Mark being the clone should be pretty awesome. The actor's pretty good and obviously, does bat#### crazy pretty well.
I had no idea it was the finale either.
BTW, did Kira actually revive a dying/dead Cosima?
Seems that might've happened.
That whole thing was pretty awesome. It may or may not have gotten dusty around here during that scene.
Actually, pretty much everything that happened Fee's loft last night was awesome. I enjoyed the Clone Club Dance Party way too much.
It certainly picks up, but there's a bit of a lull from episodes 4-7 IIRC. The last few episodes of the season are fantastic.Just finished Ep4 of S1. It's ok so far and I'll probably keep watching since nothing else is on but does it get much better? I don't hate it but it's hard getting past the horrible acting of almost everyone besides the lead actress. The brother, the partner, her original boyfriend all are really bad. She's at least compelling enough to stick with it for now but I'm not sure I'll last if it doesn't drastically improve.
Yikes to the bolded. Not sure if I'll survive that but I'll try. Thanks for the reply.It certainly picks up, but there's a bit of a lull from episodes 4-7 IIRC.

Though, I'd guess that if you are on the fence now, it might just not be the show for you. Under no circumstances would I ever recommend for anyone to stop watching Orphan Black though.
Felix comes off as a mildly offensive, ridiculous cartoonish character at first, but he really grows on you as the series goes on.
He's awesome, and after a while you even start to respect that they stuck with old-school flamoyant take on him. You don't see it so much anymore and it works for him.
Paul will not. He's terrible and remains that way. As the series goes on though, he's less important, so he doesn't get in the way too much. Same with Victor.
Not sure if you've met Donnie yet, but if you haven't, you won't be a fan of him either for quite a while, but he goes from useless to awesome at some point in the series.
The series does have a problem in the lack of compelling characters not played by Maslany, but some are on the way and, mostly, you'll just grow to love the ones played by Maslany so much it doesn't matter.
Just did the same.Just watched two seasons on two weeks with just enough time to see the 2 finale yesterday. Love this show.
