TVLINE | Season 1 was very much about Philip and Elizabeth’s marriage, while Season 2 brought more of their family into focus. What’s the theme for Season 3? JOE WEISBERG | We ended up there, as you see at the end of Season 2, with a little bit of a growing disagreement about what they’re going do with Paige. So it’s going continue to have a lot of focus on the family and what to do and growing divisions. Their marriage has been going very well, and they’re very much in love. What happens now when you have serious conflict with your partner about what to do and how to deal with raising your children? TVLINE | Elizabeth and Philip were pretty united this season, compared to last season. But now they’re on opposing sides of this Paige issue. JOEL FIELDS | That’s right. In the first season, the show was able to explore the question of marriage and what is marriage and is their marriage real after all these years? By the end of that first season, the question was answered with Eliz...

Orphan Black’s fifth installment of season 2 focuses primarily on the ongoing conflict between Rachel and Helena. The episode, entitled “Ipsa Scientia Potestas Est,” is arguably the weakest hour of the season so far, lacking the organic plotting of previous weeks. But that doesn’t mean the episode is bad, it’s actually quite good. Initially, “Ipsa” feels like it’s built to be a slow-burner, fleshing out some things and building bridges to the second half of the season. And most of the episode works well as a slow-burner, but it all leads up to a weird, unnecessary climax. While it makes sense for Helena to be in that building with a sniper rifle, Sarah’s sudden burst of love for Helena feels unearned, especially considering that she had just recently shot Helena. And considering how ruthless and machine-like Helena has been at times, I find it hard to believe an emotional speech by Sarah would be enough to convince her to put the gun down. Equally perplexing is the odd sex scene be...
