Is anyone watching this?



It's on BBC america.



It has one girl playing several clones. It's a suspense/drama/comedy that is supposed to be taking place in new york.



We've decided we like it.

I've been thinking about buying the first episode to see if I like it enough to watch the whole season (I don't have cable) since I love science fiction. I'll give it a look.

I think that of the 6 episodes i've seen that was not my favorite. But then again, it's the one that sets up the whole premise for the story line so I suppose it was needed.

So I went on a binge yesterday and watched the first four episodes. The series is really well done, the young woman they found to star in the show is very talented, she manages to make each character distinct. Thanks for the recommendation.

Amazon. If you buy the season (6 eps), they're $1.89 each. They'll probably show up on netflix within a year or less.

I don't know if you are to it yet, but there is an episode where one character is helping another by inpersonating her.. you totally forget that this is the same person who already plays eachs of them. she conveys a person trying to be another person and almost, but not quite making it... kinda funny when I think about it now:wah:

Yeah, I saw that one. She really is amazing, I've seen other actors try to mimic another character that another actor plays and not be as good as her. Her British accent is very convincing too, I was surprised to learn she's actually Canadian.

I guess I'll have to see when BBC America plays some of the back episodes and Tivo them.
