I just watched the first episode, it's good. I don't know why I expected it to be a horror, and thus avoided it.

It's definitely not a horror show but there are a few scenes where they tread that area. You'll know when you finally meet the character who is usually involved in those scenes haha.

that last episode was so good! i really liked that Kendall finally explained what happened in the past and we finally got the answers we needed. Delphine DID say goodbye to Cosima, so i'm thinking she is gone for good. WTF was that worm thing though that was creepy as fuck That last scene with all the clones at the table. I can't help but think what a hassle that must be for tatiana maslany to do. i mean shit it must take ages! Again very impressed by Tatiana's performances this season. I feel like Helena grew as a character the most this season. I love her scene wit the truck tower

what a stupid plot twist though. Siobhan is really related to Sarah and what a coincidence, her mother is the genetic source for the clones - and she never knew!
How convenient that Sarah has found her real family now...which turned out to be the people she always saw as family.
Sorry, as good as the story is and as great the performance of Tatiana is, this story made itself weak. It was better before that reveal.

I just saw the scene where Donnie accidentally killed Dr Leekie. Pretty funny. Does anyone know the name of the score that plays over some of Allison's big scenes? E.g when she tells Donnie in the Rehab centre she's a clone/he ruined their marriage?

Okay I've finished the final episode, and I have to say it was very anti-climactic.

Alisons drug dealer is still alive Helena knows the name of his truck towing company, you could simply look it up to locate him

Oh my god you guys... read through some reviews - no idea why I haven't watched this sooner, whole first season has been free on Amazon Prime forever. I started it tonight. I will be caught up to season three with a super marathon watch this weekend. GoT is over, I must wallow in something and this show is amaaazing.

I believe Helena killed off his Portugese suppliers though. Delphine's survival/possible eventual re-appearance is probably one of those things that depends on actor availability. Wasn't it another role that kept her offscreen for half of s3?

This show is BINGE-WORTHY! I seriously watched half of season 2 one night and half of it last night... 5 episodes in a row each night, that's a record for me even over TWD when I caught up with that one LOL! I see now why everyone loves Helena so much. Definitely one of Tatiana's best performances. It takes excellent skills to pull off 'psycho' in a way that's convincing and not hokey (Iwan does so well with it with Ramsay in GoT for example). Cosima is firmly my favorite and I'd be as in love with her if I were Delphine too! I love a smart, brainy, geeky, sexy girl genius scientist! I was bawling there at the end when ... Kira tried to wake her up and she didn't respond. I thought she was gone. I have not spoiled any of season 3 for myself so I was seriously upset - I thought she had died in her sleep and it was tearing me up!

Dunno about the rest of you but I'm struggling a bit between seasons 2 and 3 ... too many loose ends left open and not explained starting to annoy me. I'll give a summary once I'm done with the whole thing and caught up. I still love all the characters and the story overall is great, just some of the sub-plots are making me mad. GoT does that too though hehe.

GoT does that too though hehe. The first half of season 3 becomes particularly convoluted, but the season wraps up nicely. For the most part. Yes! Convoluted is a good word for it. I was really having a hard time keeping up. It did start sorting itself out by mid season 3, but I'll be honest I did not enjoy the ending to season 3. Here's a few things I disliked: The Castor side of the story felt really way too vague and ambiguous compared to all the detail we got about project LEDA. It felt like they threw it in as an afterthought for additional material. And as much as I love Alison, her story with the drug dealing and running for school board was also slightly filler-like feeling. Maybe I'm being too critical. It was hilarious and I enjoyed a lot of the humor but it didn't really lend much to the overall clone story IMO.
Also, I strongly disliked the tie-in of Mrs. S's Mother as the male/female "donor" or whatever and how S. never even knew Sarah was actually blood relation. That just felt too far into unbelievable as much as S. and her army of underground people know and can do. I realize they made it so that the only place Ethan Duncan even wrote that info down was in that book, but it still felt really off to me as powerful as these factions seem to be in the playing of the plot.
I have enjoyed watching the 3 seasons in marathon binges but I was somewhat underwhelmed by the season 3 wrap-up. Way too much weirdness with the castor/military side of it. Didn't like that. I'd prefer they stuck with the Dyad/Neolution/Leda stuff primarily. Maybe they just ran out of material or something. Looking forward to next season. The show is worth it for Tatiana Maslany alone.
Oh and PS: I don't think Delphine's dead either.

I just did a re-watch of s1 to see how all the convoluted plot twists later fit in with what was set up before, and I was surprised by the leeway in Paul's characterization caused by Dylan Bruce's lack of emoting. Any time he says something confusing it's easy enough to handwave that he's just lying as Sarah is still lying to him and Leekie is lying to everyone. The other big thing that jumped out was Rachel mentioning Topside in her first meeting with Sarah.
