Meta += Sanctuary, the Fumbling Frontier
Oct. 5th, 2007 09:13 pmTaking advantage of being one room away from the wireless modem, I decided to download the first episode of Sanctuary, a new sci-fi web series from the creators of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.
(It couldn't be helped, Azureus Vuze (C) plugs it in your face everytime the application loads.)
I don't know how often going Web has been elected to pilot a new series, but what this show has done is offered its first two parts free. For all subsequent parts it asks you to pay $2.49, which, is pretty reasonable considering how much money I can spend on a meal.
( SANCTUARY: Wherein I enjoy seeing familiar faces, make unconstructive commentary, and wish desperately for vampires and werewolves to be banned from this show. )
I hope this show is purposely luring me into a false coccoon of disappointment, preparing to slap me sideways with its creative and technical ingenuity in the next installment. I has part two. I will find out shortly.
I remember being underwhelmed by the Heroes pilot, but I'd heard good things about it and determined to keep watching. Today it's one of those shows I follow every week although not everyone's had the same reaction. I haven't heard *anything* about Sanctuary, but while nothing's driving me to keep on watching, I will see what I can in support of my SG actors.
Not going to consult Wiki at this stage [1]. That would be, like, cheating.
[1] At least, not until I start tearing my hair out.
