Sanctuary

[WyldeMan45]

I've caught a few episodes off and on over the past few months, and just found out I can stream the first season on netflix. Right off the bat I noticed some Sci-Fi familiar faces, from BSG there's Dee and Connor, and from Stargate Atlantis there's Halling/Todd the Wraith here again as multiple characters, and Major Lorne and of course the star of the show Amanda Tapping. Looks like this show stocked up on BSG and SGA alumn, so I guess I will have to keep watching!! Anybody else here watch?

[Show spoiler]Magnus (Tapping) is the best looking 158 year old Woman I've ever seen.

I tried watching this show a few months ago but found it was trying to be like Americas Torchwood. I'll give it another viewing on Blu-ray only saw the first 2 or 3 episodes I think.

When I heard her say that, I thought the exact same thing "Damn, that's one sexy 158 year old"

I'm just glad that right as I decide to stream season one on netflix, season two will be available to stream on tuesday the same day the series hits blu. So I don't have to wait for the discs, I can just watch em on my own time and pace it out without having to worry about getting my discs out in time for my next shipment.

A few episodes into season 2, but I have one big question.

Is Ashley serious dead? I expected her to reappear but has yet to. Was there any reason behind this beyond story, or was there a problem with Emilie?? I really liked her character, not to mention she's gorgeous. But to remove my favorite character so early on in the show, is a huge disappointment to me.....

[BigFoot]

^ Yeah it seems she seriously is dead. Unless they'll bring her back in season 3.

She was also my favourite character on the show, so I was very disappointed when they killed her off.

I finished the first disc of season 2, and they have stopped searching. I was like WTF!? Every show has a moment like that, only the character ALWAYS comes back and than she was really dead? But without seeing the body, they could always bring her back. All I know is replacing her with Kate who is a pretty lousy human being and someone who sold animals into slavery and death isn't exactly an appealing character, especially to replace someone as kind and gentle as Ashley, even though she did continue to kick ass as needed. I just don't like Kate. I do enjoy seeing Chris Heyerdahl in the duel roles though, does Druitt stick around the remainder of the show?

[BigFoot]

^ Yep, Druitt sticks around.

And while Kate does improve quite a bit over the course of the season, she's still no Ash.

I find that a lot with anything that's filmed in Vancouver.

Cool, Heyerdahl rules!

Kate could never be Ash. She was so damn gorgeous!!! I wanted to cry when they took her away from me..............

I wonder if it's cause they are all living local to that area or what the deal is. More and more character actors from SGA kept showing up in the first season.

[BigFoot]

^ Yeah, Heyerdahl is awesome. And yeah, Emilie Ullerup is absolutely stunning.

[WyldeMan45]

This is awesome news! BTW, just finished Khali: Part 2 so I am officially all caught up and really loving this show.

Amanda Tapping Reveals 'Sanctuary' Season 3

One of Syfy's top-rated series, 'Sanctuary' released its season 2 DVD recently and this fall, the third season will expand to 20 episodes. That's good news for fans of the Amanda Tapping show. TV Squad got the scoop from the actress about what's coming up for this intense adventure series.

[Show spoiler]"We survive the tidal wave, which is good," revealed Tapping of the cliffhanger ending season 2. "Because we have a 20-episode pickup, we have the luxury of doing really big story arcs this year, which is very exciting. So we have two major threads that we're pursuing throughout this season: one dealing with Helen's past a bit more, and one that is something that's much bigger than Big Bertha," the ginormous sea spider that plays a pivotal role in the season 2 finale.

Given that the third season will be nearly 50 percent longer than the first two, there undoubtedly will be some concerns for the cast and crew to deliver the goods and keep up the pace. "It puts more pressure on, but in some ways it's a luxury because I felt like last season was a bit too much of an anthology," admitted Tapping. "Not all of the episodes connected. I think this year because we know we have that time, it's a lot more pressure, but it's also bit more of a luxury for us. That's how I'm choosing to look at it. Ask me in 10 months."

Perhaps one way to keep costs down and keep the stories rolling along would be to do more standalone episodes with protagonists Helen Magnus and Will Zimmerman, such as the deep sea submarine thriller in season 1 ('Requiem') and the vampire squid adventure ('Next Tuesday') in season 2. "We like to do those shows because it saves a bit of time, although it never saves money like it's supposed to," Tapping noted. "I hope we do at least one this season because it's just nice to reconnect those characters. But I don't think we'll do very many."

And for those who wonder if Helen and Will might ever develop romantic chemistry and a potential love triangle with John Druitt, don't hold your breath. "It would just be weird," Tapping said. "In part because Helen rescued Will when he was a child. I just think it would be too weird. We'll just leave it at that."

As one of the show's producers, Tapping would like to explore more of the 'Sanctuary' backstory, so fans can expect that next season as well. "I'd like to see a bit more of Helen's history and the history of The Five, what shaped the Sanctuary network," she said. "We are going to be doing that this [coming] year. We're going to do a few historical episodes."

I'm on the third episode of season 2. Obviously, I have to be careful reading the responses in this thread. The show is getting very addictive! I'm glad we're seeing more of Druitt in season two. I really like his character.
