I watched seasons 1-4 on Amazon prime and season 5 on BBC America's website!

I don't know that every serialized drama series benefits from a viewing pattern like that, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Maybe in a couple of years, when the show is less fresh, give it a go like that.

That was probably the biggest benefit of watching it like this, I never once got tripped up over all of the different groups.

Weirdly, he hasn't been on since early season 4. From then on, on the rare occasion the Hendrix kids show up it's solely with Gemma, with Oscar being in another room or something. The two kids are siblings in real life I believe, so it's bizarre only one of them would continue on the show.

I'd be 100% in on an Orphan Black movie, if only to see what a big-budget Hollywood film would enable this team to achieve that this show couldn't. On the other hand, it would mean ruining the nice endings all of the characters got because there'd have to be some sort of threat for the movie to work.

Spot on assessment because that's exactly how I feel. I think you hit the nail on the head with the differences part-in a lesser show, it would have just drawn attention to how different they all were, and that be it, but Tatiana, and the show by extension, really did such a great job in making clear and distinct

Did they ever bring up what happened to her? Hopefully still handcuffed to the stairwell if I had anything to say about it.

I don't know that it would work for every show, but a lot of the plotting problems that some of the later seasons had are a lot less noticeable when you've viewed them all in quick succession. I liked how easily one season flowed into the next, and it really felt like a show withe a definitive end game in mind, which

One is named Hell, the other is Wizard. Makes perfect sense

Also, of all of the ways you expected Orphan Black to end, was a Donnie strip tease or a very meta Helena story time was how exactly none of us expected it to go, and I really liked that

Purple and Orange: laughed out loud at that one. What a perfect capper for Helena, almost wish she'd kept those names

So here's a fun fact: I binged the entire series this week before the finale, so in a lot of ways it has felt like one very long movie. I can't even imagine watching the seasons years apart, I could barely wait just to get to the next episode. Glad I could join in the discussion just once, but damn was this finale

Really, really, REALLY not a fan of animal endangerment jokes. If you're killing or hurting an animal for a "joke," you're just a lazy writer. I'm going to morbidly continue watching because apparently it gets worse, but that rabbit scene was so uncomfortable to watch.

Have you seen some of her performances online? She's fantastic

Well, Oliver, I don't know what else to tell you. This is an incredibly strong top four, and every single one of them brought their best tonight. I don't know what else you could have wanted. Category Is was so fun, and imho Peppermint would have won that, so there really was no right person to eliminate. It's a shame

I love that Andrea knows Kimmy well enough to not even question that she has a friend that raps about Greek philosophy.

I wish a little bit more time was spent with Mimi and Jacqueline, mostly because I can't get enough of Amy Sedaris, but this was a really strong episode for all three characters and really exemplifies what makes this show great. All of the scenes with Kimmy and Andrea tread the line between comedy and drama

The actress who plays Fern (the mother, Sheri Foster Blake) is exceptional at selling the befuddled, exasperated face/voice. She's one of my favorites

"After our date, he asked me if I wanted to go for a walk, which would have been exciting if I was a baby or a mermaid but I am neither."

That last line is probably one of my favorite lines of the season. Sure, similar jokes have been made countless times, but the way Ellie Kemper delivers it just makes me laugh so much.
