I'm gonna watch Sanctuary, trying to keep an open mind about it. Who knows, it might be pleasantly surprising and not suck.

Well... in my opinion, Sanctuary was very, very disappointing. The premise might be okay for a comic book, but it's too laughable for a television series. Take the guided tour of that huge building, of all the mythical monsters in the cages, and then try and tell me that goofy "Hannah Montana" lookalike captured them all pretty much by herself. Right! Seriously though, I was turned off fairly early, when Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) nearly ran over Zimmerman (is that his name?), then just left him in the alley with a concussion! And she has supposedly been watching this guy all his life, waiting for the opportunity to recruit him to her cause! What gives? But evidentally it wasn't the proper "dramatic" moment to do that; he had to go home and have an argument with his girlfriend first. A little later, Ashley Magnus beats up those two transit policemen. Why? Apparently just to show us viewers how tough she is -- no other reason I can see.  |

Well, your taste is a little different than mine, sir. Even though we're both Original Series fans, you liked "The Undiscovered Country" and I didn't. It wouldn't hurt to take a look (that is, if you're the type who can watch Destination Truth without rolling on the floor laughing).
