Hmm ... I didn't like this season as much as the first one.
It was great to see so many original cast members return, but story-wise I felt like Kira and Charlotte (but especially Kira) got sidelined. Charlotte had at least a bit of a storyline going on, but Kira's point of view was so cool to see in the first season and I wish she had gotten her own storyline revolving around her research on her own DNA. 
And tbh I'm just not a fan of the decision to leak the info about all of the clones to the public. I felt like the criticism towards the Toronto clones was very justified, actually. And ultimately, this decision did more harm than good.
But apart from this, it was still an enjoyable season with a great mix of emotional, thrilling, funny, dark moments - exactly what makes Orphan Black so fascinating.
I hope this is not the end of this podcast!

Not quite as intense of a story as the previous season, but Tatiana's voice characters were still amazing and I loved having Felix, Donnie, and Delphine back. 

Now I'm just impatiently waiting for Echoes...
