BEWARE: I spoil. Metal Hurlant Chronicles is 30 minutes because each episode is a different story told on a different planet. I’m answering that question because that was my first question before I sat down and watched it. The length of the episode was a big concern for me since I’m so used to hour-long…
Last Saturday, the fabulously hilarious Wil Wheaton sat down with the cast, creators, and fans of Orphan Black as a pre-game to the season premiere next week. The hour-long special was filled with laughs, in-depth character discussion, and amazing contributions from the truest OB fans. Celebrity lovers of the show, Orlando Jones and Patton Oswalt,…
BEWARE: I spoil. With the upcoming premiere of Orphan Black’s second season growing nearer and nearer, what better time to give a crash course on the who’s who in the Clone Club? I’ll give you the rundown on all our important clones, but remember, the first rule of the Clone Club is never tell anyone…
When Orphan Black, an original series from BBC America, debuted in 2013, the verdict was in: THEY’VE DONE IT AGAIN. Another hit series under the belt.

BEWARE: I Spoil. Whenever someone finds out that Evony is human, she gets a WHAP right in the face. That’s how I feel about the Lost Girl season finale, like someone punched me in the face, and now I am bleeding my fandom all over the carpet and sobbing teardrops of OTPs lost. The gang…

BEWARE: I Spoil. As a self-proclaimed and certified Newbie, every week it is my goal to throw myself headfirst into all things sci-fi, specifically peering into some of the most critically acclaimed TV shows and movies! I check out the show in pure tabula rasa fashion, with typically nada knowledge about the premise and letting…
The number one reason to own a sister is for TV suggestions. Take some time out and give your sissy some cookies, you’ll be amazed at what you’ll find. I spent the weekend holed up with mine, marathoning a 10 hour season of Orphan Black. Sarah Manning (Tatiana Maslany) is just walking around one night…
