April 8th, 2008 Filed Under Sanctuary News
Looks like Sanctuary has got a channel in the UK. ITV4 has bought the rights to the 13 episode run for the UK, reported by Digital Spy.
It’s set to air later this year on the channel. This is what ITV4’s channel editor, David Fewings had to say about the show, “Coming from the team behind Stargate and starring Amanda Tapping (Stargate), Sanctuary couldn’t have a better sci-fi pedigree. It’s absolutely at the cutting edge of the genre.”

TV’s Sanctuary will be a very Different Beast
March 26th, 2008 Filed Under Sanctuary News
I’m sure most of you will have seen Amanda Tapping in the web only TV series she starred, and produced, Sanctuary. It’s going to be making a move to the small screen, well bigger than your average computer screen, but smaller than a movie screen - TV.
The Sci-Fi channel ordered 13 episodes back in January, and Amanda will be reprising her role as Dr. Helen Magnus. Something that is a little surprising is that the TV series will be different to the web broadcast series. They’ve reshot the pilot and here’s what Amanda had to say about it,
Our pilot that we’re now going to start shooting is very different from what you’ve seen on the Web. But [Magnus] is still this crazy character. She’s 157 years old, and she’s very eccentric and very sexy and very unapologetic. I love it.
So not that much has been let loose there. It’ll be interesting to see how different it will be. Maybe the web broadcast episode was just a “test run” for the series. With the feedback they’ve gathered from the initial, limited, broadcast the Sanctuary the masses will see may be an improved product. But does anybody else feel like they’ve cheated doing it this way?
