Yup, that bothered me. I think straight RP would have been the best choice for this character though.

I wrote this above regarding the patent issue:

Legally, at worst she's guilty of involuntary manslaughter. It's a pretty immoral personal decision however, and I would definitely feel full responsibility for Ainsley's death if were Alison.

I scream so much at that show. My childhood included no exposure to horror movies at all so I fall for every single trick in the book. Jump scares literally make leap in my chair.

It's a little outlandish to suggest that the corporation would have any legal rights over the actual lives of Sarah and Kira, but they would almost certainly own the rights to both of their genomes.

My biomedical engineering knowledge comes finally comes to fruition.

He is, and always will be, my Doctor. Goodbye Matt Smith. It was great having you on the show.

But, but I want Orphan Black to go on. I demand my Alison and Felix hijinks goddamit.

Thanks for the recommendations.

F: Sarah - I like her but she's a little too far in the punk spectrum to get married to.

Before this show I was firmly in the camp that believed that the only good way to write a gay character in a TV show was to not have that part of his identity determine how he's portrayed. This was largely because Adam Pally on Happy Endings was constructed that way, and he was the only well written gay character on…

This is incorrect. Sarah pretending to be Beth is the most attractive.

Alison pretending to be Sarah in front of Kira and the reverse in front of  Alison's husband are some of the hardest pieces of acting I've seen done. I can not imagine how hard it must be not slip into either of the actual characters while playing one pretending to be the other.

I don't have much psychology knowledge, but as a biomedical engineering student I spent the last semester examining the underlying mechanisms of neurological disorders and how to create new ways of diagnosing and treating them so I have a degree of familiarity with this issue.

I actually wouldn't mind a more Justified like approach to this show. Spend the early parts of the season on some fun episodic stuff before diving into a long arc.

I thought we established that the encephalitis was autoimmune, but I might be remembering incorrectly.

When this show started airing, I got really excited about getting a Baltimore area drama, before I realized that our two claims to fame in television are drugs and now serial killers.

Hannibal is a trained and licensed neurosurgeon, but even he can't randomly gain access very expensive testing equipment.

@avclub-9cd818ea56273170b63f339aa6f34bca:disqus I'm curious. What does Hannibal's office say to you? I think it's at once a critical component of his facade and a place that reveals who he truly is.

How would you rate Mikkelsen's knife work? I've been pretty impressed with it so far, but I'm not sure if they're not just cutting to someone else's hands.
