Oh, I get it, you guys are cynical

Shorter Any Episode of Orphan Black:

Oh, twist! She's an ally!
Oh, twist! She's an enemy!
Oh, twist! She's an ally!
Oh, er, she's dead.

Next episode: No, just kidding. Not dead.

Cynicism aside, tell me that you aren't impressed by Tatiana Maslany's acting. Go ahead, I dare you. Gods, she's good.

I haven't finished the second season, yet. The first season was badly marred, in my opinion, by the idea that clones would have the same finger prints. While this is completely nuts, and pretty much anyone should know better, it was exacerbated enormously by the idea that Beth's prints weren't on file. She's a working detective, for fuck's sake. Her prints have to be on file in order to exclude her when they're evaluating crime scene evidence. Arghhhhhhh.

I really did give the show the old college try but people kept being utter jerks, so I bailed. I need a character to hang my emotional hat on or I ...just...can't.
