I have never left a review on here. Ever. I am super picky about what I watch. Super. I can usually tell within the first five or so minutes, if I am going to vibe with a show and be able to get into it or not. I can not tell you how many shows I have started and stopped, hoping to find one to hook me, like handmades tale did for example. I usually for the most part just stuck with like the id channel, not in entirety but there were several shows on that channel that I enjoyed and that grabbed my attention. But when I'd watch all of those types, id be stuck, trying like a mad person, trying to find a show, with a good amount of seasons and episodes to enjoy and binge. For the record, I'm a female, I'm not super old, I don't think, I'm 35. So back to this show, I actually had been looking up shows to binge on Netflix, Hulu, prime, would actually check those out, and it would be a bust. So I started to be more specific. That would be a bust. So, since I being obsessed with handmades tale, looked up shows similar to that and found orphan black. I'm not going to lie the first five mins it didn't grab me, but it had really good ratings and reviews, so I hung in there, it didn't take long at all, just longer then my usual limit. And god I'm so glad I hung in there. This show, is amazing. The ratings dont lie. Like others stated, the lead actress, it wonderful and deserved, many many awards, and much recognition, I can't say more without giving away things that I dont want to give away lol, but once you watch yourself this will be understood and agreed upon as well. Wonderful acting across the board. Wonderful writing. Keeps you on your toes. On the edge of your seat. Def, keeps me tired in the morning for sure. I watch during the day whenever I have spare time. I look forward to bed time when the kids are asleep and the house is quiet and its just me and orphan black and I always tell myself just one more episode but then that episode is so damn good and the ending is so intense and crazy and I just have to see what's going to pop off in the next one and that cycle repeats itself and its pretty damn hard to break and before I know it, its 5 am. I'm already half way through season 3, started this almost 3 days ago. I'm already sad that the show is going to be totally over soon, there's only 5 seasons, that's how good this show is.
