5 The Daily Star, Oneonta, N.Y., Friday, April 10, 2015 By Andrew Warren TV Media Third clone's the charm: Perhaps the "O" in "O Cana- da" stands for "orphan." "Orphan Black," that is. TV shows crossing the border from Canada into the United States are far from a new thing, but rarely has one been as critically ac- claimed as "Orphan Black," the smart, tense sci-fi thriller that airs on BBC America. With its third season set to premiere Saturday, April 18, simultaneously across multiple networks (including BBC America, AMC, Sundan- ceTV, IFC and We TV), this award-winning series has the wind at its back follow- ing the success of its first two outings. The breakout star of the show is Tatiana Maslany ("World Without End"), who plays Sarah Manning, an or- phan and con-woman who makes a shocking discovery about her origins. Maslany also stars as a suicidal police detective; a graduate stu- dent studying evolutionary development; a brutal, dead- ly assassin; and even a trans- gender criminal. That's a lot of diverse roles for just one actress, but there's a method to this madness that ties into Man- ning's mysterious origins: she is a clone, created in a lab in 1984 and just one of many. Her other roles are, naturally, all identical clones. As a premise, it's certainly been done before, but never like this. Maslany has drawn widespread critical acclaim for the incredible diversity of the performances that she's able to pull off, and at the Canadian Screen Awards last month, "Orphan Black" was named Canada's best dramatic series — Maslany herself took home an award for best actress. So "Orphan Black" is the real deal, and after the shocking turn of events at the end of season 2, its many fans are no doubt champing at the bit for the new season to get underway. The third season of "Or- phan Black" premieres Sat- urday, April 18, on BBC America, AMC, SundanceTV, IFC and We TV.

Which explains why he announced he no longer supports President Obama.
