'Orphan Black' Spoilers, News: Season 3 Premieres Introducing New Male Clones
'Orphan Black' premiered last Saturday night and introduced a whole host of new mysteries and surprisingly, new clones.
The series' star, Tatiana Maslany, plays a whole number of clones on the show, embellishing extremely different personality traits and nuances. She's able to do this so flawlessly it's hard to remember at times that it is really one actress.
"This season, the show has added male clones played by Ari Millen to the mix. The good news is, Sarah, Cosima and the other clones retain most of the real estate in this gorgeously grimy biothriller, and watching the established characters relate to each other is still a lot of fun. It's an unrelenting joy to watch Maslany find new ways to differentiate the clones," writes Huffington Post.
Every character on the show gains their own backstory and focus, sometimes making it that much harder to follow, however this is what also keeps it from becoming boring.
"Ideally, the role of the plot on 'Orphan Black' is to serve as the background machinery that unites various combinations of these characters for reasons I can at least halfway understand," writes Huffington Post.
The series airs on BBC America at 9:00 pm ET.
