Sarah Manning is one of the best and most interesting sci fi characters out there.
Many people would be freaked out by seeing their doppelgänger jump to their death leaving all identification behind, but not Sarah she is the one character in Orphan Black who is a true opportunist (she stole the dead woman's identity). Her troubled past and involvement with some questionable characters and groups has shown that she is far from perfect.
A problem with many Protagonists is their lack of flaws, Sarah is a mess of a human being who has had her daughter taken from her because of it. She hides her true feeling and thoughts from others until they explode in a fit of blind emotion and confusion, and because of her stubborn nature she pushes everyone out of her life in order to save them from what she feels she has to go through. The way she handles her emotions and relationships is relatable to reality and connects her to the viewers in a personal, relatable way. She does what she feels she has to do for who she loves even if she has to fight, manipulate, lie, or sacrifice herself to get there.
If you have not seen Orphan Black *SPOILER ALERT* the plot basically revolves around clones. Although all the clones are significantly different, Sarah shows that just because you share DNA doesn't mean she has to agree with or trust her fellow clones. Her existence shows that although she is a clone she is human, and she won't be used as a science experiment. Sarah is overall a crude, funny, loyal and rebellious character who has everyone questioning everything they believed about human cloning.
