Apr 26, 2015Series 3 of Orphan Black has been massively disappointing so far. I hope it improves. Tatiana Maslany is her normal brilliant self but Ari Millen who plays the male clones is just terrible. Not since Finn Wittrock's abysmal performance in American Horror Story have we seen such dreadful over-acting.

May 3, 2015After a messy second season, Orphan Black comes back with a season that has a less confusing plot, but the thrilling moments we once had on the first season, are now gone. The show became a parody of itself, and now even Tatiana Maslany's talent can save this show.
Awards & Rankings

In its third season, Orphan Black is both falling victim to its complexity and is all the stronger for it.
-
It’s always interesting--Maslany is particularly transcendent when she acts as one clone disguised as another clone, which occurs again in season 3, and the show even finds a way to introduce waterboarding into its already politically charged narrative. But Orphan Black lost its grip on the story sometime early in season 2, and introducing even more characters has not proven to be a way to reclaim it.

We enter the third season following a shocking discovery that adds a delicious new dimension to the series: Dyad is only one of two cloning projects.
