Did anyone else watch this show?

I just binged watched all 10 episodes today, and it's bloody brilliant.

If you've never heard of it I highly recommend you check it out, it's about women who finds out she's a clone and a massive story around it

It kinda has similar themes to Dark Angel and Dollhouse, Dark Angel cuz of subject of cloning, Transgenics and genetics. And Dollhouse with the idea of identity, although it is much better than Dollhouse, it was actually what I originally thought Dollhouse was gonna be like when I first heard about it, but Dollhouse wasn't able to get dark and gritty
 
I mainlined the ten episodes last week. It's really good. I love how the network is launching a campaign to get Tatiana nominated for an Emmy (which she absolutely deserves because HOLY SHIT is that girl acting her arse off in this series).

I really like how spot on the writing is in terms of dialogue. Like, they get Sarah and Felix's speech down pat. The same with Mrs. S, she speaks like an actual Irish person speaks. That really impressed me, normally that attention to detail isn't in these type of shows.
 
Yep, that was quite brilliant.
It turned surprisingly humorous at times. Did not expect that to be honest but that's just good.

Thanks for bringing it up. I depend on threads like this to find new, good, shows. 🙂

Same, sometime really good shows get missed on bad promotion!
Looks pretty interesting! I love European shows in general, so hopefully I can find this somewhere to watch.
 
Never heard of it, but maybe I'll check it out. Looks interesting. I didn't watch the whole trailer though, I'm quite allergic even to minor spoilers 😛
