As much as I hate to say it, but it’s been announced that Season 5 will be the last season of Orphan Black at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con . The hit BBC America show is coming to an end, but they cast wanted to come and celebrate the success and fandom of the show at SDCC. The panel consisting of John Fawcett, Graeme Manson, Kevin Hanchard, Jordan Gavarvis, Kristian Bruun and Emmy-nominated lead actress Tatiana Maslany. The fans were in for a treat because Tatiana’s double Kathryn Alexandre, popped up. This was Alexandre’s first time at SDCC.
Fans got to see a recap of the first 4 seasons of Orphan Black, along with the famous blooper reel from season 4. Tatiana also did a little role play with the panel as see showcased Helena, Alison & Sarah.
Executive producers Manson and Fawcett explained that the show wasn’t leaving due to ratings, but they always had a plan to go out on top.
There has yet to be a show like Orphan Black and I will miss it terribly!!! Season 5 of Orphan Black will be back 2017 on BBC America.
I knew early on that I wanted to take my place among the stars. One day, my mother saw me reading The Washington Post at a very young age. Who would have known that it would be the building blocks of my journey? Since that day, I dedicated my life to learn all that is learnable. I read everything from encyclopedias to books to dictionaries to magazines. I’m also an avid television viewer, with my favorite genre being game shows. If you’ve seen me on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire or Wheel of Fortune, then you know that this interest has served me well!
My unique style of reporting began back in junior high school, when I started to chronicle the events that shaped my life. Whether it was the annual family vacation or the local science fiction convention, I shot numerous pictures and recorded my thoughts so I could truly appreciate the history. During my senior year at Friendly High, I wrote what was to be my first masterpiece, “Advanced Space Academy – A One Week Journey.” I sent the eleven-page article back to the U.S. Space Camp staff. The article was highly praised for being “one of the best written articles in the history of U.S. Space Camp.” From then on, I knew what I wanted to do for rest of my life — to be a reporter.
Since then, I have trained in Broadcast Journalism at Bowie State University (2008) in Bowie, MD, earning a B.S. in Communications. I gained experience in news production and editing through field experiences with Bowie Community Media Corporation, Prince George’s Community Television, and Bowie State University Television. I also wrote scripts for a variety of quiz shows for over five years.
As a lifelong movie buff, I now see close to 100 films every year. I took this love of movies to the next step when I became a co-host for Eclipse Magazine TV in the fall of 2005. While at EMTV, I interviewed celebrities, worked on red carpets, and attended a wide variety of movie screenings. In January 2009, I took a leap of faith and started my own entertainment news magazine, The Rogers Revue. Shortly afterward, my lifelong journey of studying the silver screen and writing about what I learned finally earned me a place in the Washington Area Film Critics Association.
All of this has led me here, giving you the latest entertainment news for the DMV and the entire nation, and I am truly excited for whatever will come next.
