I think this sounds like an awesome show, different concept and from what she has written about it Amanda Tapping is pretty excited about it! So i for one am looking forward to it!
Pinky, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Yes, I am!

I am anxiously awaiting this new show, I wonder since the groundhogs say it's going to be an early spring, does this mean the show will come out early too
Dan Payne (Kull warrior and big wraith in Sateda, amongst other things) and Ryan Robbins (Laden of the Genii) are also involved in Sanctuary and talked about it a bit at P2 with Dan telling a story about filming a scene where he is playing a vampire! Oh and I think Ryan said Chuck Campbell (Chuck the technician) is in it also...
I'm looking forward to watching this. It sounds pretty interesting. Only wondering if this will be some form of PPV or if it's going to be free to watch with advertising or something.

I hope the second, because PPV in US or Canadian dollars is out of my league, really!
Here's a recent interview with Amanda Tapping about Sanctuary.
Thanks for the link! Good interview - Amanda is lovely and charming as usual.
Sounds like an interesting premise for the show - I'm really looking forward to seeing AT in such a different role. All being shot in green screen - that must really be challenging, not to mention requiring lots of post-production time.
For anyone who is on dial-up and can't get this interview (like me), here's a recap of what we know so far.
Sanctuary spoilers:
Spoiler:
Amanda's character is Dr. Helen Mangus.
She is 157 years old.
She was one of the first doctors in Victorian England.
She was engaged to Jack the Ripper and has a daughter by him.
The daughter doesn't know who her father is yet but will find out.
Helen works in a sanctuary that her father built.
The sanctuary is for "interesting" people with special "skills" (includes vampires).
Working in the sanctuary has given Helen the blessing or curse (Amanda's word) of long life.
All filming was done on a green screen and set will be CGI.
They have filmed a 2 hour pilot, and when it appears on the website it will be interactive.
This was off the top of my head, so if I missed anything important then I'm sorry. There is also a thread for Sanctuary under Alternate Universes, and the Sam's a great character thread in the Character section has discussed it at length.
