Actress Tatiana Maslany's series, 'Orphan Black' is currently enjoying a third season on BBC America, and the numerous roles she plays has earned her a lot of recognition.

While she's highly respected in her own circle, she hasn't yet been awarded an Emmy or been nominated. In an interview with the Huffington Post, Maslany speaks on her Emmy snub and how she fairs with her various character portrayals on the show.

In response to her opinion on prejudice against acting genres, she states:

"There's an idea that the acting is less important than the special effects [in those shows], but what's funny about our show is that the special effects and the acting are one and the same. They couldn't exist without each other. It's not like we're sending spaceships flying around -- we're just putting two characters played by one person in a room together. To me, our show is more of a character drama with elements of comedy and horror than a sci-fi show."

Maslany addresses the challenged she was confronted with when auditioning.

"When I auditioned for the show, I was blindly ignorant of the challenge of it, just sort of excited. Then, the day I got the part, I was like, "Ah, I can't do this, there's no way!" [Laughs] How do I even lead a series, let alone lead it in this way?"

She's so far done an amazing job handling all her roles, however to get into character, she uses music to assist her.

"The riff at the beginning is dirty, [risque] and sort of raw. There's something about it that's just, like Sarah. It became her. I really liked Prodigy growing up, and they're from the U.K. I feel like Sarah would've partied to that music when she was younger."

"Antony and the Johnsons and Tom Waits. Antony was the big one, because it contrasts with the hardness of [Helena's] exterior. There's something about his music that's so haunting, so emotional and so kind of hurting, but also whimsical."

'Orphan Black' currently airs on BBC America, Saturday at 9/8C.
