So I've been watching Sanctuary...

I know, I'm late to a show as usual. But it's only recently out here.

Anyway, the official website sanctuaryforall has a bit that says "Join our team! Come play a part in interactive missions in the Sanctuary!", but when I click it, it says Australians can't play. Typical! :(

Before you ask, Hide my ass just 'aint working on this one. It tells me it's encrypted and I need the direct address, which I can't get.

So, this is a long winded way of saying "I AM CURIOUS", so can someone who is say American (or maybe Canadian?) skip on over and poke about in that bit and tell me what is there? Am I missing anything?

Much obliged.

P.S. Just watching the start of S2 now. Why the hell did they kill Ashley and replace her with a way more obnoxious dark-haired chick? I didn't mind Ashley, but the new girl is bugging the heck out of me so far. I'm holding out vain hope that she gets less infuriating.

Do I recommend it? Hmm. Well, I don't know your TV tastes really, but I'd say it's worth a look-in at that price. The British accent Amanda Tapping uses is really annoying at first, but you just get used to it. lol Other than that, it's mostly switch-your-brain-off fun. It grows on you, for sure. Also the graphics are pretty cool. Pretty much everything is CGI, like they are always acting to a bluescreen. Every now and then it's really noticable, but that only makes me realise how I haven't noticed it the rest of the time. It's really very speccy. *G*

Basically the show is a little cliched, but also quirky and it totally grew on me as the seasons went along. Some of the more secondary characters are particularly fun with their evil glares and super powers.

There's a synopsis on the website, but it makes me giggle with its heavy use of superlatives. Nonetheless... linky (http://www.sanctuaryforall.com/TheShow/Synopsis.php)

I'd say go for it, but don't expect too much of it, just enjoy it and you'll be good. I did just go out and buy S2 as I totally HAD to know what happened after the cliff-hanger, so there must be something to it. :)
