hey guys?

If you are not watching Orphan Black. Start.

It's quite entertaining. And yes, like with most things I'm sure it has its flaws. But. Just shut up and enjoy the pretty.

It's so high on my list of things to get around to downloading. I've heard such great things. Grr I hate not having wifi.

I have watched the first episode and I like it! But it's so strange. Felix has a British accent, despite being from... Brampton. And the girl sounds like a Canadian trying to do a British accent. Someone else is also British. But then some other characters are Canadian. And I think it's supposed to be set in Canada because there's mentions of Montreal and Cleveland.

I think they are British folks living in Canada.

"the girl sounds like a Canadian trying to do a British accent" I guess that's because the actress (who is Canadian) isn't good at British accents?

But like, at least half the cast seems to be British. And I guess the actress feels like she has to have a British accent because Felix does and they're supposed to be foster siblings? These things don't bother me, I'm just fascinated and amused.

In a show synopsis somewhere they described her as a "street hustler", which I took to mean prostitute, but I don't remember any mention of that in the show. Was there?

I think it's just those two and the lady who has her daughter.

I got the impression that she's kind of like Kenzi from Lost Girl. And I don't think there's been any mention of her being a prostitute.
