It can't be said enough: Tatiana Maslany is an amazing actress. Was watching the show the other day when a friend came over -- she watched most of the episode and it took a long time before she realized they weren't different people.

Also, Helena is so damn awesome. Love her.

 

I haven't watched any of the new season. Is it as awesomely brainfuck as the first?

 

Yes. More so.

 

Why the fucking hell did Maslany not get an Emmy?!?!??

 

Am I the only one who felt really bad that Sarah didn't mention Helena when she was talking to Rachel's dad?
Plus she didn't even seem all that concerned about getting her back from the cops.

I'm done trying to guess Mrs. S' deal its like she knows everyone. I'm just going to sit back and wait for her to interact with every antagonist in the show.

Also Big Dick Paul. Whats his angle?

 

Everything Ash recommends is awesome, now where to fit this in with all the other things.

 

Big Dick Paul's life goal is to bone as many of the Clones as possible!

He's boned 3 so far!

 

Man the actress who plays Sarah did a great impersonation of Alison in this week's episode. I always like when actors pick up the traits of their co-stars and I'm sure Alison's actress had a good laugh about it and - Wait. MALSANY. /shakes fist in awe.

Also, I wanna hug Rachel but I'm scared she'll eat me. Also, dat ending. :awesome

 

Does anyone else feel off about Cal, Kira's dad?

 

Well goddamn.

Spoiler

I don't know if I like the new clone, Tony. It just looks like Tatiana Maslany with a goatee and a mullet, and not like a trans person to me. It was a bit distracting. I'll give him time, though, plus I don't think we'll see a ton of him anyway.

I thought Cosima died, and I was very sad, but I felt that OB had to do that, and I was satisfied with it. Then I saw in the preview that it looks like she isn't dead. I don't think she's going to die after all, but maybe I'll be surprised.

 

Spoiler

Would have been neat if they had tried to pull a genetic male clone. But I suppose Maslany is a bit too feminine-looking for that, so I get why they went trans. That said, char wasn't all that interesting.

 

I like this show, but some of the bull-science stuff is really immersion breaking. I suppose their target audience isn't people with knowledge of genetics or biochem though, lol.

It seems that Rachel wants a kid, but I'm pretty sure she would be an awful parent. I hope they explore that aspect of her personality more, because it seems pretty at odds with her current characterization.

 

If it was something I could control, then I would be able to watch the shitiest, most unrealistic shows on television and enjoy the hell out of it. I suppose that's doing it right. However, I can't, and so my immersion breaks when something ridiculous happens.

 

I agree. Tony's a bit... it just breaks immersion a too much -- doesn't seem like a different person, just Sarah with a goatee

 

Anyone watch the finale? Holy cow.

 

They need to leave Helena the fuck alone.

 

They will never leave Helena alone. Fortunately they will be horrifically killed. Yay!

Also, as an aside, the finale has made me hope that if any two clones end up banging down the line, it's Sarah and Cosima. Don't get me wrong there'd be some wonderful hatesex between Sarah and Captain Rachel, but c'mon, that bed scene in the finale was adorable and sweet as dicks. Yeah yeah they're considered sisters, but that'd just make it even more hilarious, really. And if any show could win a visual effects award for showing one actress playing two chicks going at it, it'd be this one.

Oh yeah, and there was a hell of a reveal at the end of the finale. Good times. For anyone worried it'll lead to a shifting focus-y thing, don't be yet. Just wait and see! It'll be cash, I bet.

 

Nawww man, soccercop for life, Alison/Beth, they already banged.
