Sanctuary

Postby leslina » Sun Oct 05, 2008 1:15 pm

Anyone catch this Sci-Fi Channel original series premiere Friday? I taped it, but have yet to watch. I would imagine hordes of SG-1/Atlantis fans flocking to watch given Amanda Tapping stars as the series lead. As I said, I've not watched the opener yet, but I'm not sure I dig Amanda's dark locks or British accent. They seem distracting. Thoughts, reactions, comments?

I can't say I much care for it. Not only did it fail to make the characters interesting or the story compelling, but it was so horribly predictable that I knew
SPOILER!!!:
the bad guy was Jack the Ripper as soon as he started grilling that prostitute for information, and I knew that Amanda Tapping's character was some kind of un-aging immortal as soon as the blonde chick was introduced as her daughter.

Haven't had time to watch the premiere but I did watch almost all the webisodes when they were released and it looked interesting. I'll wait and see.

I have to agree with CX. It was predictable and boring. Sci-fi seems to get their shows really right or really wrong. Once Stargate goes off the air the only show worth watching will be Eureka.
