I'm the opposite. I thought they did a great job with such a ridiculous premise. McShane, Susanna Thompson, and Sebastian Stan all acting their balls off. Eamonn Walker as a weird Old Testament prophet.

Mnnnnn.

Poor Eamonn Walker just can't get a break lol.

One cancelled show after another. First Justice, then Kings. Hopefully he fares better with Copper.

The last truly great one he acted in was OZ. Kareem Said is the man!

Finishing this show up. This is great. Some of the best scifi I've seen in a while. It's amazing that one actress can play so many different rolls in one show. I have to wait on season 2 but this may be Breaking Bsd tier.

Just finished it yesterday. What a great show. Story is awesome, characters are really deep and interesting too. I can't really find any cons about it. If this show won't fail in next seasons, it will be one of the best tv show ever.

The guy who plays Paul actually seems really energetic and charismatic in real life. Hopefully some of that can seep into his character in season 2.

I really hope the writer give him a darker side, because he was a more fun and useful character when it wasn't clear that he was on Sarah's side.
I personally don't give a shit about their boring love story, i'd much rather see him do the triple crossing.

It's more of a boning story right now. But yeah, I hope he turns again
and gets got.

saw the first episode again from the beginning and loved it! Funny how missing the first 10 minutes of the pilot can make the first episode so confusing

- ORPHAN BLACK Clones on Clones: Comic-Con Exclusive Making Of (youtube)
Go behind-the-scenes of production of BBC AMERICA's breakout hit thriller ORPHAN BLACK with star TATIANA MASLANY (The Vow, Picture Day), co-creator/writer GRAEME MANSON and co-creator/director JOHN FAWCETT - and learn how the series' iconic and breathtakingly seamless multiple clone sequences are filmed, in this Exclusive Video from the ORPHAN BLACK panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2013.

Uncover the truth about the intricate and cutting-edge "Motion Control" filmmaking that allows "not just putting [multiple clones] in the same frame but literally having them touch each other... When you nail it, the results are unbelievable!"

Says series star TATIANA MASLANY: "I've explained it to people loads of times, and nobody kind of can get it..."

Also, this gif set of Orphan Black mashed up with other tv shows is amusing.

She was especially fearless when it came time to disrobe in the first episode, when Sarah, while pretending to be Beth, distracts Beth’s boyfriend, Paul, by having sex with him on the kitchen counter. “So many butts on our show,” Maslany laughed. “It never struck me as too much. Sex for Sarah is a weapon. This is what she’s doing to stay safe. It’s also how people have sex. They’re naked. They’re not in a bandeau.” It was also her first day shooting with Dylan Bruce, who plays Paul. She tried to put him at ease. “‘How’s it going? Take off your pants. Put on this cock sock. Don’t feel embarrassed.’”

It's not explained, but we know that a number of clones were separated from the experiment and those who remained are being watched by monitors, who could talk too much and/or get tortured in a craft room until obtaining a confession.

I have to say, Dylan Bruce is quite lively and fun in those Comic Con videos. It's kind of difficult to see how come he's such a wooden actor in the show.

He really is Amell 2.0

I know! Amell is one of the few actors I follow on twitter because he's consistently amusing, he has great charisma, and is fairly witty. WHERE DOES IT GO.

I just finished season 1 last night, and will definitely be recommending it to people. Stinks that season 2 is so far away. Normally I'm more lucky with my planning :) ... :(

Oh my fuck.

Dylan Bruce (Paul in Orphan Black) will be guest starring in Arrow for multiple episodes. He will be "Laurel’s new co-worker Adam Donner, a corn-fed, All-American lawyer who is described as smart and charismatic."

Holy fuck. I can't believe it's happening. Amell and Amell 2.0 are going to meet. They're going to act together.
