Welcome back Orphan Black fans! It's time for season 3, which if the opening episode is any indication, is going to be chock-a-block with male soldier clones and if we're lucky, lots of our self-aware girl clones mimicking each other as much as possible.

B+

While I expected and was excited for the show to keep up with its in-depth exploration of control and female agency, "The Weight Of This Combination" lays the foundation for this season to delve into a new theme: community.

Welcome back, Clone Club! It's seriously felt like an eon since we said good-bye to Tatiana Maslany, Tatiana Maslany, Tatiana Maslany, Tatiana Maslany, and Tatiana Maslany, doesn't it?

Tatiana Da Gawd is back to play like 14 different people on the cult favorite and season 3 opens with that creepiness.

8/10

This was a first good start to Orphan Black's final season. The writers kept up with the momentum from the previous season finale and heightened the drama for all of our favorite clones.

Fans who were worried about the clone boys crowding in and drawing the focus away from Orphan Black's parsing of female experiences should rest assured that Sarah and her sisters still seem to be very much center stage.
