Yep, it's excellent. But it's not available for streaming on any service, WTF BBC. I had to rent the discs from Netflix. What is this, the stone ages?

Hmm. that's not true... it shows up for streaming on the vast majority of Netflix regions, including (but not limited to):

United Kingdom
Norway
Sweden
Denmark
Netherlands
Switzerland
Ireland
Italy
France
Brazil
Argentina
Germany
Mexico

https://netflixaroundtheworld.com
(What, don't you have a service to switch Netflix regions on demand? They're completely legal. For YOU, anyway. Netflix must at least put forth a token effort to block them or they can be liable. http://www.unblock-us.com --these guys have better service than the others, http://www.blockless.com)

Ah, so available everywhere but the U.S. and Canada. Nice.

Last time I looked, I couldn't use a region-switcher because my Netflix account still receives disks (which are tied to a physical address, of course.) They have since broken out the shipping into dvd.netflix.com, so that may have changed.

I've got a Roku 3 with an an american account set up on it. I still have to use region switching to get Netflix in different countries (and Roku's implementation of Netflix has a hardcoded 3rd and 4th DNS server going to Google, so I had to block Roku from accessing google's DNS on my router), but with unblock-us and my US roku account, I get Netflix from any country in the world, Pandora, HuluPlus, and lots of other stuff that would normally not be available to me in Canada. I love it...

Update: while canIstreamit did not list any sources for Orphan Black, the first season is available via Amazon Prime Instant. So that's an option. Season 2 is paid.

Also, thanks for the tip on unblock-us Talya, I'll check it out.

Eagerly awaiting it.

Season 3 was awesome. So was Season 4.

Better yet, and coming as a complete shock, they've been recognized for their quality.

Most deserved Emmy win for for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, possibly ever.

Two years later, Netflix has seriously clamped down on this. You can't region-hop without a VPN service, now.

I haven't watched the series yet, but someone I follow said "Tatiana Maslany is giving somewhere between 6 and 8 of the greatest performances on television right now."

...and all in one show.

Accurate.

Season 5 will come out next spring and be the last, so next fall you can binge watch the entire thing.
