Yeah I just read that article again and did a bit wikipedia research. Still hard to believe this happening. And I never heard of organs being mirrored in healthy humans that are not former conjoined twins or something.
And all these online sources for that are contradicting each other or even real things. Most of them do't even realize that XY does not instantly give the gender to a human. That's why I am always careful believing new stuff from sites that contradicts what I learned before that.

I hate to say it, but I'm really disappointed with season 3 so far What made this show so interesting was the big mystery around who the clones were. Who made them, where they came from etc. I don't mind it taking so long to really, truly get to the bottom of that, but I felt like the plot in season 2 became needlessly complicated and convoluted with the introduction of the proletheans and that's just been exacerbated in season 3 with the introduction of the male clones who are just not that interesting. The guy who plays them is awesome, but the mystery surrounding them is just the same as the mystery surrounding the female clones and they're even looking for the same thing (original genetic material vs original genome!) and it just feels like it's meandering a lot. Although I'm glad they sent away Keira. Nothing against her, I just got a bit bored of her being an eternal damsel in distress.

The writing has really taken a turn for the worst.

I also just, personally, don't really care much for Helena, so the "I need to get Helena back!" crusade that Sarah is on is a drag. Helena is just becoming another eternal damsel in distress. She's needed rescued from kidnappers and religious nuts every single season and it's gotten ridiculous now. And that's not even accounting for the fact that her murdering, psychopathic tendencies make it hard to like her

I think she tends to distress her captors more than they distress her Definitely not a passive character and although she is targeted a lot, she always handles her situations herself. Season 3 isn't on in the UK yet as far as I can tell, but it makes sense to me that Sarah wants her back. They are "sistres" (I love when she says that ) and she is Kiera's "Aunty." She is one of the 'clone club' now, and it's been quite well established that they will always have each other's backs

How can you not like her after her funky dance moves in Season 2?!

Damsel in distress is not the correct way to describe Helena at all. But I am 100% over her being someone's prisoner and I hope that once she's rescued or frees herself that it doesn't happen again. I knew not liking Helena was going to be controversial I guess I just haven't forgiven her for murdering those other clones.

Y'all still in love with Helena after that last episode? I wonder if filming them escaping together dictated that story decision. Might have been too much to film them escaping together since it's only Tatiana?

Y'all still in love with Helena after that last episode? Yes. I was all kinds of pissed at her for leaving Sarah, and then we had her line on top of the wall about her sister tearing her heart. I went from anger to the sads big time. Best episode of the season for me. I liked everything. Cosima on her date, Mrs. S Felix and Gracie partying, and the Helena/Sarah scenes. Really enjoyed this one.

Although I'm a little skeptical since they could just pull some kind of jiggery-pokery to make it work. They've done it before.
