Hee! I made a couple of Regenesis icons for myself. I've looked about and, at least on LJ, there appears to be no fandom for this funky show. Pity. Anyway, I love it, so I made my own icons.
Regenesis is a Canadian TV show set in Toronto.
The future is here. Bioterrorism. Designer babies. Frankenfoods. Suddenly Humanity possesses the ability to play god. But is it progress—or madness? Will cutting-edge science be our salvation? Or our demise?
ReGenesis is a new dramatic series about NorBAC, an organization formed to investigate questionable advances in biotechnology.
The Pandora's box of biotech is wide open. It's a modern gold rush, where billions will be made and geo-power will be staked. And everyone's involved: governments, multinational drug companies, rogue states, and terrorist. But ideas can't be put back in—once they're out, they're out.
The icon is of Dr David Sandstrom. He's the head of the lab at NorBAC and so fucking flawed that he's just endeared himself to me. Plus he hates to talk down to the non-science types. :p
In the scene in the icon, he's actually explaining viral replication to a woman he's a tad annoyed with. Teehee! I just love this show. Much of the love is to do with the fact that I work in a lab and the lab-speak dialogue in the show is obviously written by someone who works in a lab. They don't talk down to each other like they do in other shows (the exposition is always when someone non-sciency needs it explained) and they have cool little scene changes that sort of give an impression of time passing.
Anyway [/squee]
I have 2 new icons. *grins*

There is the ReGenesis podcast they put up, and that's still available. I actually grabbed one of the instrumental tracks off of that, but the quality isn't all that great (I think it was encoded in 96 kbps). But it's cool, there is only one song I really want that I'm missing. However, it's one I will most probably never get because I wrote to the artist and their PR woman said the song was especially recorded for the show, it was never released and apparently they're not willing to just send me the MP3. Oh well... As David would now say, "Can't win 'em all."

I remember the podcasts vaguely! I'm amazed they're still being hosted. Wow!
Will dig my DVDs out sometime soon. :)
