Audience Reviews for Orphan Black: Season 3
-
Maslany is brilliant in the third part, in which the storyline is developed in a great way.
-
Maslany continues to impress, but even that cannot stop the boredom of the Caster plotline. The story is confusing and contrived to give the impression of drama. It picks up nearer the end of the season, but that is more due to the Maslany's screen downtime and less about the story.

If I ignore the overarching mystery, Orphan Black is still as good as it used to be solely because of Alison, Helena, and Cosima. The plot at this point, however, has become so increasingly tangled in its own convoluted web that it's boring and not worth my effort anymore to try and figure it out. I don't know who is a good guy or a bad guy. I don't know the difference between Topside, Dyad, Neolution, Proletheans, and whatever's up with the military woman, or what any of them have to do with each other. I don't know why Leda and Castor are even against each other. It seems like every other episode Mrs. S and Delphine are good guys then bad guys again. In fact every episode some series-long character is revealed to have had a sinister secret that's convenient to the plot at that moment in time. Most of the cliffhangers involve someone getting kidnapped then getting rescued in the next episode (it's usually Kira). This is an unsolvable mess, and I gave up long ago trying to pay attention to every minute detail in order to piece it all together. Now I just watch to make sure my favorite characters survive episode-to-episode.

Problematic The depiction of the abuse of women on tv may be common, however, it will never be normal to me. I Was already watching the show because there was nothing else and I needed to put something on. I gave up completely on the series in season 2 due to the unnecessary inclusion of a scene where one of the clones had been forcibly inseminated. I have had it with shows like this especially like the handmaid's tale, in normalizing this kind of sick fascination with the abuse towards females. I don't understand why this kind of sht is fed into by the general masses but you should ask yourself WHY if you do.
-
Kind of a digression from the series up to this point, but introduces developments important to the conclusion of the show.
-
I skipped this season when I rewatched the series. Just gets convoluted, but they bring the storyline back in full AMAZING force in Season 4.
-
it's good as the two previous seasons, but gets really dark and more evil, and the story more and more mixed up and complex. a bit too depressing for my liking. if not the comical release from the soccer mom and Felix, i would quit watching probably.

While still a very solid season, season 3 of Orphan Black really, REALLY dropped the ball in quality compared to the last 2. Tatiana is as good as before, but the introduction of the male clones (wonderfully acted by Ari Millen by the way) was a muddled storyline.
-
Amazing actress playing such different characters so well. Highly recommend this series.
