Who was your favorite Tatiania Maslany character on Orphan Black?

Asked by Rarebear (25192points) September 8th, 2017

If you’ve seen the show you know what I’m talking about.

In order, my favorite (of the major ones who had plot points)
Alison, Helena, Rachel, Sarah, Beth, Krystal, MK, Cosma. (For some reason Cosima always bugged the crap out of me).

I like the good guys, generally. Cosima and Helena are my favorites on this show. I stopped watching because of the stupid stuff they had Alison doing.

@filmfann I can see why you find Alison annoying. She’s an annoying character. I just liked her (and Krystal) because they were such caricatures of a stereotype. Sarah is obviously the core of the show. The reason why I don’t like Cosima was more that the liberal hippie Berkeley stereotype is behind me (I was a liberal hippie type in Berkeley) and I’ve moved on. And I find nose rings annoying.

I always thought that Alison is a hoot. I would literally smile and laugh when the character got some screen time. I even found humor in the Craft Room of Terror, when Alison attacked Donny with a glue gun.

I liked the Rachel character a lot, but I found the wig distracting.

I enjoyed Helena a lot, and the more crazy/funny situations with Alison.

I enjoyed watching the show, but I didn’t like the continuity issues – the parts that didn’t seem to make much real sense, stretched credulity, and/or seemed contrived or invented without much thought from season to season. I didn’t believe that the stuff in the later seasons had really been going on in the earlier seasons – it seemed like the writers made up new stuff and tried to pass it off as if it had been going on all along, when it seemed like really they’d just not really thought about what the whole situation was until later.
