A couple months ago I started rewatching Rumpole of the Bailey and of the 43 episodes total (7 seasons of 6 episodes plus 1 feature length film) of the show I got through a little more than half before needing a break. Not that I’m not still enjoying the episodes, but the show is from the 70’s so it is kind of tough to watch the typical low resolution format of that time period.
Because I have been revisiting some of my favorite older TV shows, I decided that maybe it was time to rewatch what was a nearly 5 year obsession a decade ago, Orphan Black. I was exposed to this sci-fi show like nothing else before it, all because I saw a promo video for it on io9:
The first thing I was surprised by was that I forgot how much we get to see of our protagonist. I guess BBC America was not afraid to go full cable TV as we get to see a rear view of that male cast member too.
I’m only 3 episodes in of Orphan Black of the 50 total (5 seasons of 10 episodes) and if my recollection is right, it gets weirder as the seasons progress, so I just might not make it all the way through all of this show before giving up too.
