Sanctuary -- Spring Premiere -- "Pax Romana" -- 4/15/11
By djariya at 2011-04-15
Synopsis:
Spoiler:
Episode 11 of 20
Remember this show folks? You know that one with Amanda Tapping from Stargate. Well, it's back for it's back 10.
This will probably get more lurker clicks of people who don't even know what this show is than actual comments

I'm not going to lie and say it's amazing television, and it starts out a bit rocky, but by the 3rd or 4th episode it gets fairly entertaining... and by the end of the 1st season, and most of the 2nd season it is a bit above average... especially when they delve into the "league of extraordinary gentlemen" -esque stuff... if you like scifi, you could certainly do worse.

Nice start to the second half of the season. I like these super-immortal storylines.
Loved Adam's look of terror when he saw bloody-faced Druitt.
I look forward to the tons of comments this episode will get here.

I've hung on since the beginning but am amazed that this has made it to a third season given the other shows lately that have been axed after one or two.
(I'm assuming that it is relatively low budget, which is why the economics continue to work).

The show peaked halfway through season 2. As TallGuyMe said, it starts off rocky, but gets good by the end of the first season and carries that momentum through about half of season 2. Then it falters... and they haven't quite recovered for me yet. It's on the chopping block if the first couple episodes aren't up to snuff.
