[initial reactions] Orphan Black 5x01 - The Few Who Dare
I was going to start Broadchurch season 3 but after binging for hours about murder cases and now sexual violence I thought I needed a break and jumped into...
Holy crap intensity.
Damn Sarah Manning is the new Macguyver! Injured and alone in the woods she managed to dodge people going after her unfortunately after all the effort to reach Cosima and Charlotte she still gets captured.
And Rachel now has everything she ever wanted: recognition and a place as the head, or well she thinks is the head. I feel like something will happen to shift this.
Alison and Art are in shady neolution's hold, and Donny has to deal with Helena with a stick in her pregnant belly...
Boy do these writers know how to raise the stakes.
Obligatory Tatiana Maslany is amazing, but Tatiana Maslany is amazing. Sarah feels so different from Cosima, from Rachel, from Alison, from Helena.
Especially the part when the clones interact with each other: Sarah and Cosima then Rachel and Cosima.
Seriously Magic.
