We’re getting closer and closer to the Season 2 premiere of Orphan Black, which means many new and wonderful videos for us to devour. Today we have a brand new trailer full of fresh new footage, a TV spot for the catch-up-look-ahead-and-discuss show Orphan Black: The Cloneversation, and three character featurettes:

This week also brought some very impressive and well-deserved award news for our favorite clone show: a Peabody! Here’s the important part of the press release:
“The George Foster Peabody Award is a true marker of excellence in media. It is an honor to have two series that we are particularly proud of considered worthy of this level of recognition,” commented Perry Simon, GM, BBC AMERICA. “Thank you to the Peabody board and congratulations to all award recipients.”
BBC AMERICA’s original series Orphan Black was hailed by the awards as “one of a kind – a super-charged, stylized sci-fi action serial that ponders identity, humanity, bioethics and genetic research when it occasionally stops for breath. Tatiana Maslany is a marvel in the title role.”
I’m no big fan of the whole awards scene but this one carries a lot of status and, as we Clone Clubbers know, is fully earned. Congratulations to all involved in the production!
Orphan Black Season 2, starring Tatiana Maslany, Jordan Gavaris, Skyler Wexler, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Dylan Bruce, Matt Frewer, Evelyne Brochu, Kristian Bruun, Kevin Hanchard, Michiel Huisman, and Peter Outerbridge, premieres April 19 at 9/8c on BBC America.
