US TV: Orphan Black

Anyone into Orphan Black?

This is one of the best TV shows I've ever watched. A shocker in every episode! Tatiana Maslany deserves an Emmy for her role :)

Curious ako sa storyline nito kasi it's about clones.  Since bago pa lang naman ito, mabilis i-marathon  ;D  Most of the shows I watch are either in hiatus or have been cancelled so this is a boon (I hope!)  Will watch this weekend and post my feedback.  Reminds me of Resident Evil -- yung maraming clones si Milla Jovovich  ;).

Felix reminds me of Vice Ganda. Hehe! But I love his relationship with Sarah. They always have each other's backs. At ang mga Paul/Sarah hanky-pankies! :o :P I can't say I blame her though.

This is one of my favorite series na! Husband and I are hooked. Ang galing ni Tatyana Maslany. Superb acting considering na she has to play different persons with different accents pa in one show. Cassima is coming down wih somehing, pareho ng namatay na si Katya. Allison was right all along with her hunch na husband niya ang kanyang monitor. Kawawa naman si Helena. Pero nagtataka ako at alam ni Kira kung sino talaga ang nanay niya ha, that time na Allison had to impersonate Sara. At pararang may alam yung bata talaga tungkol sa mga clones. Mukhang di rin yata  innocent si Mrs S. tungkol dito.

So yung original clone ba ay yung pro-clone? I wonder what would happen to Allison now that she signed a contract wih them not knowing that she i all the more relinquishing her freedom? At si Kira, kaya siguro laging sinasabi ni Mrs S. na she's special because of her genetic "anomaly" na she can regenerate damaged cells.

I also like Felix. Ang ganda niya hehe.

^diba ang ganda? I'm hooked too! Tagal pa ng season 2!!!

Ang theory ko ay si Mrs. S and yung isang male scientist ang parents ng proclone na si Rachel tapos siya ang original. Haha. She looks a bit older than the other clones.

I'm loving Cosima-Delphine hahaha :)

And yes, ang ganda nga ni Felix. Ang galing nila mag pretend ng accents! At si Tatiana, sobrang galing, sana manalo siya ng Emmy para dito. :)

^ di ba binigay ng birth mother ni Sarah yung pictures ng kanyang "totoong" parents bago ito binawian ng buhay?  Kung si Mrs. S iyon, dapat namukhaan na siya ni Sarah sa picture.  Thinking it was Sarah, kay Helena nasabi ni birth mother na mag-ingat siya kay Mrs. S because she is not what she pretends to be.  I think she knows about the experiment pero hindi siya yung "creator" nila.

^ yup! Parehong scientists yung parents nina Sarah at Helena. Silang dalawa yung nasa picture na binigay ng surrogate mother kay Sarah.

Finished the first season in 1 day! Shocks, ang galing nga ni Tatiana!! I love her and Felix.

Wait, hindi ba si Mrs. S yung nasa picture? I think yung tinawagan ni Rachel sa huli eh si Mrs. S. Hindi kaya sya ang monitor ni Sarah all along?

I think si Kira has something talaga, may connection sya sa totoong kamag anak nya. I mean kahit kay Helena, parang may connection sya, eh kasi tita nya talaga yun diba. Pero ang birth mother nila eh yung black woman talaga diba?

Kawawa naman din kahit papano yung friend ni Allison, pinabayaan nya mamatay kasi akala nya yun talaga ang monitor nya.

^hindi siya yung nasa picture, sila yung wealthy couple/scientists na nagpa-in vitro kay Amelia. Nung nalaman ni Amelia na medical experiment yung dinadala niya, tinago niya ang babies at binigay ang isa sa state (Sarah) at sa church (Helena). Ang hinala ko rin si Mrs. S ay ang monitor ni Sarah.

Ang tanong, sino ang original? Feeling ko si Rachel... siya yung original daughter ng scientists tapos kumuha ng cells sa kanya para ilagay sa iba't ibang surrogates. Intriguing ang twists kaya kung [textspeak!]-anong naiisip kong theories :D

At si Kira, isa siyang breakthrough dahil hindi pwedeng magkaanak ang clones. Sino kaya ang tatay? Hmmm

Who is your favorite clone? Mine is Cosima, ang cool lang niya. Sana hindi siya patayin!

Ako si Sarah ang favorite clone ko.

I think there is something in Sarah's DNA that made her different from the rest of the other clones.  Such that sa kanilang lahat, apparently siya lang ang nakapagreproduce but that this had led to an "anomaly" of Kira's genetic composition.

Syempre si Sarah fave ko. Hehe. Siya ata ang pinaka "bida" among the clones.

I think nga si Mrs S ang monitor niya. I was thinking of that nung nalaman na nila na lahat sila may monitor. Parang wala naman kasing pwedeng iba. Mukhang di naman si Felix. Hehe.

Kay Allison naman, parang ang obvious na yung husband niya ang monitor nya. kawawa nga lang nung friend nya.

^^^ sabi kasi sa wiki it's a photo of Mrs. S. kaya akala ko si Mrs. S nga yung nasa pic.

Sarah din ang fave ko! :) wag naman sana si Felix ang monitor nya. according din sa wiki, walang monitor si Sarah. pero if meron man, i think it's Mrs. S.

From wiki:
Sarah has no monitor because the Neolutionists lost track of her after her surrogate birth mother hid from them and gave her up for adoption. In the series finale the birth mother as she was dying, indicated to her that Siobhan Sadler was something more, by showing Sarah a 1977 photograph of Siobhan in a lab coat conferring presumably with another scientist.

Ang saya magbasa ng mga theories online. Isang bet ko yung si Rachel ang original tapos nanay niya si Mrs. S. Medyo magkahawig nga naman sila...

^ oo nga ang daming theories.  Dami ring nagsasabing si Mrs. S. yung lady scientist hehe.

@ sis simplykristine08, I might be mistaken din.  Kung si Mrs. S. nga yung nasa picture, bakit hindi na lang niya tinago ito noong makita niya ito among Amelia's things if she does not want to blow her cover?  Bakit hindi siya nakilala ni Amelia at ang tagal pa nilang magkaharap bago dumating si Sarah sa bahay nito?

Patay na nga kaya si Helena?  Sa ulo ba siya binaril ni Sarah?

^ actually, yan din ang pinagtataka ko. nakita na ni Mrs. S ang picture diba, pero hindi nya kinuha. good point.

Anyhoo, si Mrs. S kaya ang tinawagan ni Rachel dun sa last part?

Malakas ang kutob ko na siya ang tinawagan ni Rachel sa last part.  Remember what Sarah's surrogate mother told her -- Mrs. S. is not someone who she pretends she is.  Mrs. S said something to Sarah about Kira remember -- that she is "special."  If she can regenerate damaged cells in her body, NOW that is something else talaga di ba?  And I think she knows more than what she pretends to know.

One point.  Unless Amelia's egg cells were used for the IVF treatment, she is not the biological mother.  She is only the host -- kumbaga, surrogate di ba?  Kasi parang ang pakilala kasi sa series eh siya yung biological mother.  Or that was until she told Helena na scientists put babies in her womb?
