Wooglie's Thoughts

Most people reading this probably won’t have heard of this series due to the fact that it hasn’t been shown on TV yet. Sanctuary is unique in that it is being released over the internet only, but is actually being filmed by a proper company and has actors in it you have heard of. Sanctuary is a sci-fi/fantasy story about Dr. Helen Magnus, played by Amanda Tapping of Stargate SG-1 fame, who seeks to help and study weird monsters and creatures. They’ve obviously done their homework as a lot of sci-fi and fantasy fans are computer geeks as well. You can watch the episodes for free a couple of weeks after they are released on youtube and the like, but I have downloaded the HD quality version of the episodes. They work out quite reasonable with the current US exchange rate.

I’ve been getting into a few new series recently, so I thought i’d write a post about them. First up we have Dexter, the unique story about a police forensics expert who is actually a serial killer, who goes around killing murderers who have escaped justice. I had heard lots of glowing reviews so watched the first couple of episodes and was hooked. You actually find yourself rooting for Dexter and the few times he comes close to being discovered you are actually hoping that he manages to get out of it. Whether this is a good thing or not I don’t know, but makes for very compelling viewing.
