Long Live The King!

I was a big fan of Tatiana Maslany in this show and less a fan of the actual storyline and even less of a fan of almost all the side characters. But maybe they'll work on that this season. I'll watch for Tatiana Maslany being great though, I'm just hoping the rest of the show around her can raise its game to match.

I hope he is. He's just so slimy and his getting pepper sprayed by Allison is one of my favorite moments of the series.

And then tasered by Allison. And then beaten by Paul. And then picked up by the cops. :allears:

This show is the best. AVClub also has their review up of the first few episodes of the season they got slipped (it doesn't seem to be super spoilery, but click at your own risk) and apparently it's only going to get better!

Any scene with Felix and Allison doing something together is just fantastic. Out of all the clones I think Allison has to be my favorite. It's been a while since I watched it but are we sure Helena is gone for good?

Also the OP is great

Suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

Orphan Black ads in the NYT and Tatiana Maslany on NPR's Morning Edition. I'm kind of impressed with how fast BBC America's scaled up the PR campaign for this show, the only reason I even found out about the show in the first place was because of a random posting about new sci fi shows.

Yeah, they've significantly ramped it up after seeing just how much critical praise the show/Maslany got for the first season. I'd only heard about it back in S1 from some people I follow on twitter.
