Hey Shamonda and Ralph. It's good to meet you. I decided to comment here, after having watched all of your OB reactions yesterday and discovering your ep one post on YT. (It was a late-night LOL) So, here's hoping you will find my comments for the entire season, and I'll attempt to keep them short, after all, Ash Lee has written some pretty extensive notes, which I've read and enjoyed immensely. (More OB geekish than me, I think😁) I won't go over everything Ash Lee has said, but here are a few observations. That was a nice pickup in ep two, Ralph, where you noticed Sarah damaged her hand while smashing the suitcase. Tatiana just carried on with the scene! Later you see Tat playing Alison, and the damage is still evident. In a later ep, when Sarah (as Beth) and Art are investigating the stolen motorbike, Beth says, "My Ukranian sucks." This is a fun nod to Helena, who is Ukrainian, and who she is about to meet. If you don't know, Tatiana is fluent in a number of languages and when she stared in Woman in Gold, she spoke German throughout the movie. Her impersonation of Katja (S1E2) as a German was fantastic, and "these boots are made for walking" (in German) was a nice fun touch. Cosima (science geek) Neihaus was named after the scientific advisor for the show, Cosima Herter. (Check the credits.) I have to laugh when you call Vic Nacho. To us, Nacho is Vic. For the entire first season of BCS, I was calling Nacho, Vic. Michael Mando left Orphan Black when he was offered the role of Nacho, and he says he modelled the BCS character on Vic. So, Vic is the original, Nacho is the clone. Watch for Easter Eggs. Everything, and every action, has a purpose. Did you notice Helena is left-handed, but all the other sestras are right-handed? That has consequences. Why is she different. Why does it matter? You asked if Helena is dead. Did you not notice she was shot through the heart? And did you spot Helena, while dancing at the club, tossing Olivier's tail into the crowd. Yikes! imagine squishing that between your toes! Did you know ep 7 is missing from the OB collection? I jumped to the next ep and was totally confused! LOL. Had to troll about and find the missing episode. Love how Shamonda has a notebook, and begins to write notes, but then sits open-mouthed and stunned throughout the entire show and forgets everything that happened. 😂 Loved the reactions. Just one criticism. Instead of recapping what happened and getting confused and bogged down in detail. I/we would love to hear your thoughts on the characters, and you could offer predictions on where you think things are headed. Like, "Why is Kira uninjured, and why does she 'understand' the clones? Discuss stuff. Kira said to Helena, "You're just like my mother" and later we find out she meant 'exactly like,' because they are twins, as well as clones. They shared a womb. She knew Alison was not her mother and yet knew nothing about the existence of the 'Aunts.' She feels stuff. Is Kira special? We have seen the show (in my case, a dozen times) and we know the story. It's more fun to listen to your appreciation of the acting, or the amazing special effects, or the easter egg discoveries regards the perceived meaning of what is being said or done. Thank you for an entertaining journey. Everything else on your channel I have either seen, or it doesn't interest me, so I'm here only for Orphan Black. BSC is okay, but BB is way better, and I'm currently rewatching Saul on another channel, so I'll stay with that. Will you be continuing OB straightaway, or should I come back when you fire-up season Two? I'm looking forward to more, and you guys are brilliant. Cheers. BTW, this show needs binging, because it is complex, and if you think the science is deep now, man, you aint seen nothing yet.

It gets cringier (is cringier actually a word?) and weirder, and solidifies Mrs. S as my favorite character (behind Sara) in the series. I hope you guys are going to continue into the second season without taking a break to watch another series.
