Never seen a single episode of X-Files, so this will all be new to me.JohnS said:Orphan Black start tonight on BBC after an all new Doctore Who.I'm very curious about this show.
While I certainly wouldn't classify the show as great, I do find it to be well done in several aspects. The acting was quite surprising since most shows like this are B type actors at best. Tatiana Maslany has some nice acting skills and one of the reasons why the show holds together for me. She is convincing in her different parts playing herself but with different souls. That's something most can't pull off that well and even Sarah Michelle Gellar had very big issues with that in her CW show that was cancelled.mattCR said:It is amazing how well she pulls off so many different roles and makes them seem like legitimately different characters; different accents, different posture, different demeanor.. and she completely pulls that off. It's one of the most difficult roles I've seen for a woman on TV in a while because of that element.
I think that is part of why it's so confusing sometimes as to who is who. Not being rude, she's a very "generic" nice looking woman, but my opinion is almost the opposite, nothing major that stands out so difficult to tell the different clones apart. Still have episodes seven and eight to watch, so maybe things will begin to clear up.mattCR said:It is amazing how well she pulls off so many different roles and makes them seem like legitimately different characters; different accents, different posture, different demeanor.. and she completely pulls that off.
