This duplication of season 1’s structure includes slow-burning supporting clones Cosima and Alison and makes them relevant to Sarah’s work, but subplot is at a minimum. Cloning the past to supercharge the present? That’s very clever, Orphan Black. For now. Read full review

Orphan Black‘s return is satisfyingly in tune with itself in a way that not only makes sense thematically with what’s been seen so far on the show--and where we left off with the characters--but satisfies in a purely dramatic, top-tier television sort of way. Read full review

The first three episodes of Season 4 are all great, but “The Collapse of Nature” might be one of the strongest and most satisfying season premieres I’ve ever seen. Read full review

Keeping it in the family, so to speak, could rejuvenate Orphan Black if you thought it maybe needed it. For everybody else who remained joyfully entertained by the story and by Maslany's many roles, this slight rejiggering does clear up some distractions and brings back fond memories of season one when this show was such a revelation.

Those who have never seen the show will find this the easiest place to pick it up since the pilot, and those who have been along since the beginning have a series again playing to its strengths. The biggest asset is still the one that gives the show its essence: Tatiana Maslany’s performance remains superlative. Read full review

This episode was... God, it was awesome. The construction of MK and the revelations about Beth were perfect. Maslany is as great as always, so as the rest of the show.

Revived from the brink of death season 4 takes off from the cliffhanger season three finally by going back to the beginning. Still not as compelling as the first two seasons the fourth season is closer at accomplishing that then the 3rd one ever was. It delves into more mystical territories .

It’s funny because this show was originally a great idea and cool story that drew you in. Now the story is probably the worst part of the series. The humor and the actors are keeping it together.

It lost a lot of strength this season and became boring and redundant. Many of the episodes felt like filling and the ending didn't leave me satisfied.
