Orphan Black (no, I DON'T know whom this refers to...)

Gosh, I'd been thinking since last night "what do I want to say about the season premiere Sunday night of the fab cable-TV sci-fi series about human clones?" (Yeah, that's exactly how I format my thoughts!) Anyway, a minute ago, I chanced to run into a Tumblr dedicated to the series, and it offered outtakes from last night's show

This is one of those shows that I keep reading about, but simply haven't seen yet. I'm going to have to track this down, and find if it's being shown on satellite over here. Do you have to see the show from the first episode, or is it something that you can dip into mid-season? The punch on that little clip is tooth rattling!

No, you don't need to go at it from the first episode -- though it'd be better, obviously. I'm going to scout out whatever is on the Web recapping the plot, hopefully in advance of next Sunday's episode 2 of season 2.

About the "punch," it sneaks by pretty quickly in these shots -- but she actually slugs him with her pistol. (Possibly a rubber one?) Pretty brutal stuff -- but quite well plotted and has some credible characters (and one or two incredible ones).

Dear Rio -- Great to find another fan of the show! Based on the one episode last Sunday, I think Sarah is a compelling character. It may take a while to figure out her other clones -- as well as the myriad other figures.
