BBC America is launching an after-show for the new season of “Orphan Black.”

“After the Black” will debut on BBC America April 14 at 11 p.m./10c, following the season premiere of “Orphan Black.”

Led by veteran “InnerSPACE” hosts Ajay Fry, Morgan Hoffman and Teddy Wilson, the show is billed as a “30-minute, in-depth, lively discussion with cast, crew and special guests,” and will explore “plot hints and twists, theories on future episodes and special segments including behind-the-scenes footage from the set.”

In addition, fans will see an exclusive first look at the next episode of “Orphan Black.”

The weekly look at the new season will first welcome “Orphan Black” stars Tatiana Maslany (Leda clones) and Kevin Hanchard (Detective Art Bell) to the couch to dissect the season four premiere.

“After the Black” is produced by Bell Media In-House Productions.

“Orphan Black” is produced by Temple Street Productions in association with BBC America and Space. Executive producers are Ivan Schneeberg and David Fortier of Temple Street Productions, and “Orphan Black” creators Graeme Manson and John Fawcett. It is distributed by BBC Worldwide.

AMC’s hit zombie apocalypse series “The Walking Dead” has successfully employed a similar strategy. “Talking Dead” airs immediately after new episodes of the show, with host Chris Hardwick chatting with cast members and celebrity guests while offering first looks at new episodes.
