Orphan Black

As this series aired on BBC America, it seems to me it should have been part of the Emmy candidates. However I wonder about that since it received no mention and as a minimum, Tatiana Maslany's performance in the lead character role is one of the best ever in any media. Tatiana plays the multiple clones effortlessly. Whether American, British, Eastern European, anti-social, nonconformist, conformist, straight, LGBTQ I am never questioning the character. I was a fan and regular viewer of United States of Tara, but Tatiana's performance eclipses Toni Collette's. As I watched each week of the first season, I went from mildly entertained by her transformation to completely believing there were multiple actresses in the show. I would watch the opening credits thinking there were missing actresses! Jordan Gavaris is also great as Tatiana's brother. He brings just the right level of doubt yet support to the character. The story lines, settings, direction are also very good. As video science fiction, I think this is one of the best shows I have seen. It explores many different ethic and moral views - personal, scientific and social - with just enough creepiness to both entertain and make me think.

Back in my uni days i used to binge every season in a day. This series is one of my favourite, and quite underrated. As for Tatiana Maslany, she's truly a remarkable artist, with a very few good roles for women on television, she plays all 9 of them. It's intelligent, dark, dramatic, mysterious, intense and humorous at the same time. Though each episode's duration quite long but, it never bores me.

Wow! Amazing show, so glad I found out about this one today. Happened to run across it while online and sounded interesting so I started watching the first episode and from there I was hooked, watched all 9 current episodes back to back and can't wait for the next one to air!

The lead actress is amazing, to be able to play multiple roles so well, is not an easy task. I was drawn in immediately by the suspense and wondering what was going to happen next.

I can definitely say this one is one on my must watch list. Lots of twists and turns as you go along that keep you interested and wanting to see more. The other characters all do a great job as well. Very well written, and acted.

It amazes me that one person could play so many lead roll characters. She is truly talented and so is the writer of this show. There's nothing like it out there very unique and addictive.

A title that I had stumbled upon and never looked back. At first, I wasn't sure if I'd like the premise of the show since it wasn't really my cup of tea. However, there have been very few shows that have intrigued me from the very first episode to the series' finale. Ophan Black is one of those shows. Tatiana Maslany deserves every praise she receives from this show and then more on top of it. Her acting was diverse and extraordinary. Orhan Black would not be what it is had any other actor played the roles that Maslany did.
