What I Saw: Orphan Black
BBC American has a new series called Orphan Black that I am having a lot of fun watching. It is good and mindless (and I mean that in a laudatory way) and fast moving. It is a Prime example of Good Trash TV.

I was so thrown off because since it's on BBC America and since Sarah and Felix are British I thought this was a British production. Then couldn't figure out why no one else at the police station or her boyfriend had accents.
Great! You are watching this too!
So you don't really know where this takes place either? Fortunately, it moves so fast that it doesn't really matter. But Paul, Beth's old Handler, looks like he is wearing a US Army uniform in the pictures that she had of him, so East Coast down the US way, maybe.
And BTW, Paul should never wear a shirt on this show, it is an offense to God, Country (where ever that country is), and those Abs of his.
I think I'm behind 2 episodes. I caught the most recent one and was happy to see Eric Johnson (Whitney, SV) as the jerko neighbor husband.
I think that Alison's Party Farce, and it was hilarious---very well done---I was laughing out loud LOL LOL LOL, was the latest episode. But I am enjoying this show so much that I don't really pay much attention to it, if that makes sense. I just want my weekly fix.
And yeah!!!! When I saw him, I yelled,"Whitney!" Just who is Alison's Handler? Or Cosima's? Or Sarah's?
And Vic had better just take Alison's money and run, before he ends up like Jaime Lannister.
