Orphan Black

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.

This show is sooo good. The perfect mix of action, science fiction(very intelligent and realistic btw), drama, and HUMOR!

Tatiana Maslany is literally a GODDESS!! This woman is SOOOO TALENTED.

When I first heard her speak in an interview I thought she was still acting. Her ability to do accents is next level good. Not only that, her ability to be up to 6 very different and distinct personalities in a single episode is AMAZING.

The only reason she didn't win the emmy and golden glove for every season is because this show was more of a cult series than a mainstream one.

That's a big mistake on the people in charge of the awards because Maslany deserved every single leading actress award, also the supporting actress awards.

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.

FIRST SEASON : 8,2/10

SECOND SEASON : 8/10

THIRD SEASON : 7/10

FOURTH SEASON : 7,5/10

FIFTH SEASON : 7,2/10.

ORPHAN BLACK is a very good sci fi tv show, overall. Yes, it dropped in quality after those two great first seasons but still, it is a tv show that every fan of this genre will enjoy.

The biggest positive here is of course is Tatiana Maslany. Maslany did the unthinkable : She was totally convincing playing all those characters, different to each other. I can't imagine any other actress who could possibly pull this off. I could recognize Sarah/Rachel/ Koshima etc EVERY SINGLE TIME without even doubt. Not gonna lie though, Maslany as Helena was not so successful, that was overacting and not that convincing. Yet, "Helena" was so likeable and interesting character that i was glad to watch her, even more than the other characters.

Acting is a strong quality here overall, there was not even one actor who didn't do a good job.

I won't say much in order to not give a spoiler. This is definitely worth of investing. Third season was kinda confusing, chaotic and messy but it got back on track in the 4th season which was very good. Fifth season has a weak start but the second half was good. Ending could have been better, still satisfying though.

Nice soundtrack. In general a pretty enjoyable even exciting tv show. A very good sci fi drama, with many intense moments, thriller at times with a successful comedic relief.
