December Talking Meme: Personal wish list for season 3 of Orphan Black

This list will be by necessity influenced by the problems I had with season 2 and thus go under a spoiler cut.

Sorry it's taken two days to respond to this! I had a really busy weekend. I liked OB S2 a lot but I do agree with you that ideally for S3 I'd love to see more of the clones working together. Which...I have to wonder how much the writers are inhibited and AVOID writing too many clone club group scenes because of the burden on Tatiana and the special effects. I'm not sure how expensive all these green scene effects are and I imagine the show's budget isn't huge. It seems like they often achieve a sense of clone club unity by having them all regularly Skype one another.

That said, I don't mind the writers using Felix as the glue of the clone club to a certain extent, since Tat and Jordan have created great dynamics with all the clone/Felix combinations. But I wonder if they'll ever give Felix his own storyline separate from his constant aiding of his clone sestras?

I definitely want more Art and more Mrs S. And more Donnie. As for Paul...he's kind of my least favorite character but I don't want to lose him before he has a decent confrontation with Sarah. Personally I don't think Paul will be going anywhere, but I hope they'll start to clarify his motives in S3.

Trust me, I understand about business. These weeks are armageddon. :)

Re: Felix getting a non-clone storyline, I wouldn't bet on it, if for other reasons that the Felix & clone dymamics are so important to the show, so I'm not counting on, say, a storyline in which Felix finally goes steady with the morgue guy. However, I still hope for more interaction between him and Art (which would solve two of my hopes in one stroke)...and maybe he'll take to one of the male clones?
