    I have a feeling this season might just be the most intense, in terms of emotions/feelings and character strengths concerned, out off the 3 seasons! I seriously haven't seen a characters/actors portray so much raw emotions on screen... then again I don't watch much TV! Times like this, makes me wish OB was on Netflix... then again binge watching such an intense show might just shatter me into pieces! Looking forward to the recap from STV :)

    - Everybody in the Helena dream was spot on, especially Alison...except for Cosima. She was a little "WTF?"
    - Listen to the Castor Sarah. Don't trust Marion.
    - Sarah/Rachel and Alison/Sarah is perfect.
    - Is Cosima the only main clone that hasn't impersonated another clone?
    - I knew that that was Alison playing Sarah in the preview.
    - I love Rachel, so when Delphine did her eye push, I hated Delphine.
    - The clones seem to have an innate ability to imitate each other. It's bordering on the supernatural. Is it something like the Kira special abilities?
    - When 34 said that what Rachel wanted more than anything was a child, I think that Sarah saw into her with total clarity.
    - I thought that one of the Castors was going to kill henchman, and stop him from killing Alison.

    As usual, a completely spellbinding and utterly awesome episode. Orphan Black continues to remind that you don't need an astounding budget and a continual barrage of special effects to make a truly astonishing sci-fi show. All you need is an intriguing storyline and an amazing set of actors. No other show on television has mastered tension and suspense while developing each character equally and with careful interest.

    That was fun! Alot of moving pieces and sometimes it seems too much. Project Castor is still mysterious and I'm going to need to know more about each of them soon but I'm looking forward to their interactions with each on the ladies beginning next week. Was iffy on Delphine's new leadership role but the scene with Rachel was gold and she became like a million times more likeable. Don't know how I feel about the Hendrix subplots. I'd much rather see their twisted sides but still.. I'm sure their can be murder in town elections too.. More Helena. So glad it's back!

    Fantastic premiere. It reaffirmed just how good Tatiana Maslany is, as her playing Alison playing Sarah or her playing Sarah playing Rachel is just incredible. Also loved: "Do you remember our safe word?" "No."

    Delphine is the boss. And that double switcheroo sequence with Grimes' "Go" in the background - AMAZEBALLS! More thoughts to follow soon.

    Awesome! Clone Club is Back!


    - Opening scene beautiful! (foreshadowing at all)
    - Helena's talking scorpion made an on screen appearance (I kind of hope it's an actual piece of tech and not a hallucination)
    - Delphine & Rachel's eye socket?! Level up Delphine!
    - Scott helping Cosima = <3
    - Seth beating up Mrs. S = yikes!
    - Sarah being Rachel at the same time as Alison being Sarah = way to up the game!
    - Ferdinand was a little underwhelming, but hope James Frain has more to show! (I mean he is a "Cleaner"!)
    -Kira def has a spiritual/metaphysical power and kind of funny/weird seeing her discover Helena's egg container :p I think Cosima could have more spiritual experiences this season...
    -Rudi/scarface creeps me out the most of the Castor clones...
    -Sad we didn't catch up with Mark and Gracie...(he's the only one I like so far, but I am thinking this might be intentional)
    - Cool to see another Leda clone (Crystal) for a split second
    - Can't wait to learn more about the previous cleaning incident.
    - Donnie was also hilarious. "They took the keys to the Taurus!"
    -Not sure how I feel about Dr. Coady....


    All in all a really fun start to the season. Can't wait to see what direction Project Castor, Topline, and the Military all go in, let alone seeing what comes next with the Proletheans!!

    The dream was suppose to be of Helena's perspective (caught an mini interview on commercial break), but what I think was spot on about Cosima, is that she is the most open minded and accepting of her sisters and maybe Helena feels that--either that, there is some other connection there we don't know about!

    It feels so great to have the Sestras back! What an all around phenomenal premiere.


    That sequence of Helena's dream was beautiful and almost made me tear up. Oh how I wish that was real! Just seeing her having her baby shower with all of her Sestras there was awesome. And Cosima looked downright gorgeous <3 I'm crossing my fingers we'll get to see a real baby shower for Helena soon when she is reunited with her Sestras.


    The awesomeness of the Sestras impersonating each other continues...Alison as Sarah was wonderful as was Sarah as Rachel (I love that you could see the differences between the two clones)! Tatiana continues to kill it in every aspect. And that whipping/choking scene with Ferdinand was really something else XD


    Rachel unleashing her own version of Helsinki on our Sestras? Oh you cold bitch but thank god it was aborted before Alison and her family could get chloroformed. And damn! Delphine was a badass during that interrogation scene with Rachel! I never particularly cared for Delphine in the beginning but she definitely grew on me tonight! Wow! She was not messing around and I loved every minute of it. Yay, another Leda clone! Hello, Crystal.


    And we are finally learning more about Alison's family! Aren't we supposed to meet them this season I believe? I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere a few months ago. I can't wait! And Mrs. S really deserved that smackdown from Sarah after what she did. Ouch at Sarah saying "You're not my people" to Mrs. S but hopefully they will be on the same page soon.


    Cosima and Delphine breaking up just tore my heart because Cosima really loved her in every way. Hopefully they will get back together soon. In the meantime, I'm gonna enjoy this little secret mission of decoding Duncan's synthetic code by Cosima and Scott. And I'm really looking forward to learning more about Kira and her special abilities...


    I'm really loving the Castor clones so far and I can't wait to learn more about them! That scene in the beginning with Rudy taunting Sarah was so epic. And looks like the brothers are reunited! Rudy and Seth on the run. Next week's episode looks awesome.

    Solid season opener. A bit set-up-y but that's to be expected.

    I thought I read that about Alison too! I know they kind of made Alison's mom to be not very likable, as a remember a line from Alison, 'No body likes my mother.'! And this Bubbles store sounds fun too!


    And about Cosima, I found out an actress from Lost Girl may be playing a new love interest, so that might make this thing with her and Delphine a little stickier...


    Glad I am not the only ones on board with Project Castor! I was reading through Facebook comments yesterday and so many people don't even want to see what they're about! XD


    And you're right, Next week's episode looks pretty awesome too!! :D

    Yeah most of the people on the Facebook page believe that the Castor clones all look the same and don't have any specific characteristics that differentiates between them. For me, I just go by who has the mustache or the button up shirt or soon to be red "X" across his eye XD IMO, I believe it's harder for a male actor to play all these different clothes since there's only a certain amount of looks to choose from. I just gotta praise Ari Millen (and Tatiana) for giving it their all on this show since it's really not easy to play all these different characters.

    Exactly! :)


    I think it's interesting not only having male clones, but ones that seem to be designed to be " cold soldier boys" (sleeper agents??) in contrast to our emotional woman (say for Rachel, which is why I think this worked so well off her story line and Paul's, since Rachel is cold and has "missing memory" and Paul has this whole Black Opps history), but even just looking at Mark, it seems that they may not have all been conditioned the same/had the same life experiences and that they may be able to be touched by connections to others and I think it would be cool if the Project Leda Clones are able to break them down into being more human characters and that they can recondition themselves and turn on whatever their mission is--which wouldn't surprise me is apart of Helsinki! Either that, maybe they can be turned against each other easier than the Leda Clones!?!

    "Helena's talking scorpion made an on screen appearance" - wait what? have I missed a time it has been mentioned before?

  17. DarthLocke4April 19, 2015 at 9:11 PM

    It's featured in the comic: Orphan Black #2 (Helena's issue) that just recently came out!!

    It's been "traveling" with her for a while and she seems to argue with it a lot LOL!

    Here's a preview page for Helena-Centric Comic, including a page with the scorpion:

    And I will add A Season 3 Promotional Art (Orphan Black & BBC America Facebook Pages Just Released These)

    YAYY!! Thanks for the link! I didn't think we might be seeing Alison's mom/The Bubbles Store so soon! I still haven't seen the second episode yet (work and school have gotten in the way) but I'm definitely watching it tomorrow.

    I'm not sure for certain, but I can't imagine what else the soap and soap box with that color scheme would relate to!!
