I started watching Orphan Black yesterday. Thought I would watch a couple episodes and then I ended up watching 7. Pretty great show.

Checked out a few eps of Ripper Street on the plane yesturday
Nothing groundbreaking but very fun, kinda like a b-movie version of a classically set (ie victorian-era) Sherlock Holmes series. A clever brit detective, a debauched american ex-pat surgeon/ex-pinkerton and a kinda dumb strong arm cop (Bronn from GOT) investigate nefarious shit in Whitechapel some months after the Ripper murders. Very violent and at times surprisingly perverse, good actors and production values, the mysteries are not on the brilliant level of Sherlock Holmes but they hold your attention - it passes the time nicely.

Currently enjoying the hell out of a prison series from Spain called Locked Up (aka Vis A Vis).
