Did anyone watch Orphan Black? I'm iffy on it. I floved Felix. Might have to watch just to see what he does and says.

I didn't like Sarah much, but hopefully, she'll be a better person after she finds out about the conspiracy.

I liked it. Saw John Fawcett, the director of Ginger Snaps was a producer and also directed the episode.

To avoid spoilers I'll just say I like the twist in what happens to Sarah's character.

As someone who always stands on the platform of Union Station right where she was talking on the phone
I was watching that and thinking " Hey, there's no phone there. is there?"

And when the announcer says " Next train for New York " I thought someone's in for a looooong ride.

Also kind of funny to see them digitally change the GO train colours from green to blue.

Anybody know anything about this Spies of Warsaw show that BBC America is about to start?? Is it worth the investment of time that a miniseries takes? Any info would be appreciated!

Not sure if one is watching Orphan Black, but it's been renewed by BBC America for a 2nd season. I really like it. I was iffy in the beginning, but it has literally sucked me in with the last few eps. It's so good and the lead is amazing. Don't know how she keeps all of her characters separate and unique.

Yeah it's certainly one of the consistently better shows on right now, not one bad episode yet, ( UTOPIA is another excellent BBC show to look out for ). And Tatiana Maslany is amazing, every episode she floors me with how good she is. Because it's so well done you sometimes catch yourself going " oh, right, that really is just one person."

I read an article a couple of days ago about how good Orphan Black is. I purchased the first 2 episodes last night and watched. Does BBC America have anything like HBOGo so that I could watch the episodes online? Or other means...?

In The Flesh, BBC's zombie show, will have a 3 night run starting tonight on BBCA.

In the Toronto area Orphan Black along with a bunch of other shows like Utopia and In The Flesh are on the Space channel

Space.ca has full episodes of Orphan Black. you can check them out here : ( I have trouble with making blue links so the mods may have to fix it ) www.space.ca/OrphanBlack.aspx

There are commercials in the replay but they are the full episodes. Hands down one of the best shows I've seen in years

and Tatiana Maslany is absolutely amazing.

robneville, thanks, I tried but I keep getting an "error loading this content" error. It'll play the advertisments, of course, but not the episode. I updated my browser and flashplayer. No big, I'll figure something out.
