    Yeah i stumbled onto this because it followed Doctor Who, I'm really loving it.

    They do a nice job of continually moving the plot forward without boring filler.

    Nice job by the lead actress too, 4 major roles all played very well.

    I will spoiler in case I am revealing too much though I dont think i am.

    a girl sees another girl, who looks exactly like her, jump in front of a train and decides (for financial reasons) to steal her identity. She ends up discovering this was a clone and there are many other copies of her.

    It's a clone mystery.

    Girl see's someone that looks just like her kill herself, steals her identity. Find's out they were clones and the dead girl was a cop.

    Now her and 2 other clones are trying to unravel whats happening and why somebody is killing them.

    She's Canadian, so the english accent is the fake. I figured it was the other way around when i started watching.

    I know, i don't think I've seen a show that advances the plot in virtually every scene, no filler whatsoever.

    Whoever hasn't watched this needs to check it out from ep 1, show is great. That lead actress needs a raise, she kicks ass.

    I can't believe they actually did that to the the kid.

    Started watching this afternoon based on this thread:

    It got off to an amazing start! Feel like running through all the episodes for the next couple hours.

    You guys were right in that there's absolutely no filler scenes (except maybe the sex scene) - I don't know how they can keep the storyline going at this pace

    No, so far there actually isn't too much sci-fi involved aside from one very weird tail. More of a straight mystery.

    The clones, at least so far as we have seen, have lived normal lives since birth, they didn't come out of a pod fully grown or anything.
