Unlike the parent series, Echoes didn’t garner the same fervent following. The show debuted to a 60% Rotten Tomatoes score by critics, while ranking even lower with fans. It followed Dr Kira Manning (Keeley Hawes), the now-adult granddaughter of Orphan Black protagonist Sarah Manning (Tatiana Maslany). She and her wife, Dr Eleanor Miller (Rya Kihlstedt), worked together to help an amnesiac woman (Krysten Ritter). Amanda Fix, Avan Jogia and James Hiroyuki Liao completed the main cast. It comes as viewers took to Reddit to share their reactions to the show. One penned: “I’m about three episodes in, and while I’ll likely watch through the season, it feels more like somebody developed a separate show about clones and then they slapped the OB name on it and threw some callbacks in.” Another commented: “I barely made it through the first episode, waited a day and watched the second episode and I’m going to give up. “It really does not grab my attention even with the episode ending reveals – it’s not a surprise to anyone who watched the original series.” A third chimed in: “The overall plot/concept isn’t really compelling to me. “I only really cared about Kira’s plotline (episode 5 was great), but that’s pretty much it. “I don’t think I’ll continue watching. It’s a shame since I’ve loved Kristen Ritter since Jessica Jones. “This doesn’t feel very Orphan Black to me, and it isn’t the lack of Maslany even, the tone, pacing, concepts, plot…. everything.” A fourth remarked: “I only watched 2 episodes and I fell asleep at the end of the second. “It’s ok, but It’s not OB.” Others had a more positive view, as one said: “It gets better from episode 5 on. It’s a solid show, just not Orphan Black.” Another opined: “I’m on episode 6 and I love it! All ten episodes of Orphan Black: Echoes are available to stream on ITVX in the UK.
