Sanctuary Discussion (Spoilers for the most recent episode)

[RealmOfX]

Hi All! Okay, RoX and Tagger, you can have the big old bean bag chair and the giant pillow near the Plasma TV, I got that old comfy, overstuffed rocker in the corner near the kitchen doorway. Don't forget to make room for Samcarter Rules near the front of the TV. We might want to stay clear of that wind tunnel near the bathroom unless, of course, we need to use, ahhhhh you get the picture. Now the trampoline in the livingroom has me a bit, ah, concerned. But, hey, it's your place too. Just look out for Sam, the cat.
And before we forget, only 35 days left to the launch of Sanctuary!!!! You go, girlfriend!!

Okey Dokey
*scoots over to make room for Julia*

Aww Edb thank you *settles down near RoX and Tagger*

G'day! Welcome to the front row

A "sneak-peek" of Sanctuary is listed on Dragon*Con's schedule.

Thanks Parsifal.

I'll keep an eye on the con threads

What aspect of the new season of Sanctuary are you most looking forward to?

For me I really like character driven stories, learning their back stories. I also like the fact (according to one of Damian's interview ) there will be an overall story arc for the season. So we get bits and pieces in other episodes that lead up to the final.

I would like to see more mother/daughter moments and Helen/Will moments. and my burning question after watching all the webisodes How did Helen end up with this curse/gift?

What aspect I'm most looking forward to...

That's a toughie because I'm looking forward to Sanctuary on so many different levels. I'm really looking forward to how they develop the characters and flesh them out more fully, I'm also really curious about the stories in general that they will tell, I'm also dying to see what they come up with visually for the "look" of Sanctuary in it's new incarnation, I also can't wait for any behind the scenes stories we may get (hanging out for extras on the DVD release ).

I'm not sure I can make a single choice but I did fall in love with the characters in the webisodes so I guess I'm looking forward to see how they develop the most (but just a smidgeon ahead of the other stuff)

SciFi Channel just ran a new promo ad for Sanctuary about 10 minutes ago...it had some new scenes in it, and seemed longer than the first promo.

How did Helen end up with this curse/gift?

As far as that question goes I'm still going with received from an abnormal somehow - Kirillee put an interesting pitch on the topic in the Story Pitch Arena of the Sanctuary forum and it got picked for the writer's workshop so I'd say that they at least found the idea interesting - whether it's even remotely close to the answer is a whole other story though....

I'm pretty much the same as you Ann I love character driven stories with some quieter 'getting to know each other' moments too, plenty of emotional impact, and as much consequential fall out as realistically possible. I love trying to get 'inside a characters head' and see what makes them tick.

And yes, how did Helen get her curse/gift?

Great question Ann!
I'm looking forward to finding out about how Helen got her longevity and learning more about each characters history. I think I'm most looking forward to more Helen/Druitt storylines!!

I think there's a good chance we won't know for a while. It may be one of those plot devices used to keep the people coming back. A mystery to solve that we'll only see pieces of as the series goes on.

Hi guys, I need some help .

I'm sure y'all know that there's supposed to be a game with the Tampa bay rays tomorrow, and it's scheduled to begin at 3:55pm, and the Sci-Fi Night events follow the baseball game. And that Amanda, Robin and Damian will be participating. Can I ask a favor? If anyone can, can someone record it and send it to me somehow? If anyone can, I'll be forever happy, if not, it's OK.

A few months back, I did something similar on imdb, and friend of mine there, taped what I was looking for, and she burned it onto a DVD, and mailed it to me. Could you do the same? Btw, it was also Amanda related .

Julia(samcarterrules)

Me too. I'm all about the characters and good story telling. I think we may not find out how Helen got her longevity for a long time. I think some mystery is a good thing though.

Hi All
As you might have seen on one of Amanda's websites, she and a number of people from the Sanctuary cast and crew were going to take part at the Tampa Bay Rays' basesball team festivities in Tampa Bay, Florida today, Saturday. Did anyone get a chance to see them on TV or any other way so we know that they actually did attend?? Hurricane Gustav is just southeast of Tampa. No, I know, it is NOT hitting the western coast of Florida but pretty darn near close. The Weather Channel's radar show bands of rain and storms up and down Florida's coast. Anybody out there who knows? Give us a whistle or a shout if you do.

[Tracy Jane]

I know Falcon from the Sanctuary forum was out there.

Okay, on Gateworld's Sam's forum Majorsal reports that Amanda & Co were at the game. Someone talks about it on http:forum.gateworld.net/showthread.
php?t=58260

So we know they were in Tampa today. Question is did they leave for home today? Would love to hear that they had to run because they had to be in Vancouver really early tomorrow. Don't know that, however. Hurricane Gustav is not all that far away from Tampa.
