She sells Sanctuary.

Just watched the new SciFi channel show, Sanctuary. The premise is interesting, with a mix of Victorian Gothic and modern themes.

The first show was a little hokey, and the pacing was a little uneven, as all first shows are. But the villain was pretty good, although he was dispatched fairly quickly and without too much fuss, despite being quite dark and formidable. It's too much to expect this show to be as intelligent as Galactica, but there are signs the producers could make this show fairly sophisticated, once it gets into it's stride, without alienating the audience.

In any case, Amanda Tapping is smoking hot as a long haired brunette. That will be enough to keep my attention, for now.
