andraste: The reason half the internet imagines me as Patrick Stewart. (Default)
So, northern summer means a break in TV for those of us in the Magic Land of Downloadia, too, even though it's freezing outside and watching television from under a blanket is one of the only sensible activities. (I didn't make the bed today because I had to keep climbing back into it.)

I've already used the time to catch up on Season Three of Orphan Black - say what you will about the plausibility of some of the twists, but I never get to the end of an episode without being desperate to know what happens next. Thirty episodes in, I still regularly forget that Tatiana Maslany is not five people, and I love the characters.

Now, there's plenty of TV for me to watch or rewatch during the break - especially now I have Netflix! - but I was thinking I should use at least some of the time to catch up on all of something relatively short. Hence this highly scientific poll, in case someone has an informed opinion:

Poll #16819 TV Poll
Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 12


What should I watch first?

Something else that I will tell you about in the comments.
1 (8.3%)



I know very little about any of these options. I've just heard the distant buzzing sound creating by happy fans, and avoided spoilers as a result. (My knowledge can be summed up with 'zombies and David Anders, sort of like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen only Billie Piper is involved somehow and, um ... there are presumably pirates in it?')

Help and advice in the form of poll responses appreciated!

So, over the last couple of weeks, I have been mainlining Orphan Black. I got to the finale slightly after the rest of the internet, and all I have to say is HOW CAN THEY EXPECT US TO WAIT UNTIL 2014??????

Well, no, that's not all I have to say. Here are some other things.

- If you like science fiction thrillers (and can deal with some graphic dismemberment and identity related dub-con sex) you should watch this. Yesterday. Especially if you like your science fiction with female protagonists. Don't look up the details or spoil yourself for the premise, just watch it.

Cut for spoilery feelings. Which won't make sense if you hadn't seen the show, anyway. )
