Now that everyone who’s watching She-Hulk has been exposed to Tatiana Maslany, I’m going to push my “Why Everyone Should Watch Orphan Black” agenda:
Tatiana’s performance is incredible
Each of Tatiana’s characters are so distinguishable from each other, you can easily tell them apart, even when they pretend to be each other
As in “Tatiana is playing clone A pretending to be clone B, but I can tell it’s actually A just playing a role” (oh this is a show about clones btw)
She’s that good
This doesn’t mean you should sleep on the rest of the cast tho bc they’re also incredible
Everyone’s acting is just so good 😚👌
You literally never know who to trust outside of our main characters and I love it
You really do feel suspicious and paranoid alongside the main characters
You’d think the acting is all that’s good about this show the way I’m talking about it, but it’s not
The mystery of the main plot is actually really intriguing and suspenseful
It’s got government/military conspiracy! Experimentation! Manipulation! Action/fight sequences!
I literally couldn’t stop binging it the first time I watched it bc I had to know what happens next
It also dives into the concept of nature vs nurture, as well as complex family dynamics, which is especially interesting in relation to Tatiana’s characters
The show can also get really chaotic
Did I mention that the show is funny? Bc it’s funny
It’s not a comedy, so don’t expect to die laughing or anything, but it has its humorous moments/characters that contrast the more serious tone of the rest of the narrative pretty well
Oh, and there’s canon queer characters and relationships. Did I forget to mention that?
And if you end up loving the show, your OB journey doesn’t have to end there bc there’s a sequel audio series called Orphan Black: The Next Chapter that Tatiana narrates (and some of the other actors from the show join her in season 2)
In conclusion: please do yourself a favor and watch Orphan Black; it’s really good and it deserves more love

So fucking incredible honestly to be rewatching Orphan Black from the beginning and seeing baby Cophine like. Delphine is all adorable stuttering that she never really considered bisexuality for herself until Cosima, unaware that she's facing the love of her life who she'll legit be willing to burn down the entire world for I can't even🥺
