well, it's up to a 0.4 again, and it's not below a million...

(that's quite the left-handed compliment a made, eh? )

Dunno, I like it! Haha!

Abnormal -
bullseye!

[iJOKE]

My mind says it will
My heart says it wont

Im honestly not so sure..
I wish there would be another season. But somehow I have doubts.

It'd be good if the show progressed incase the FINAL episode is a cliffhanger ending.. (id hate that)
But somehow as ratings show.. I reckon it will be cancelled.

I just dont know

Having seen the final episode

Spoiler:

I think it will get a season 5. But even if, it doesn't, that was a beautiful way to end it. Full Circle indeed.

[es!]

It looks like MAD are fully prepared for the show to be cancelled. Maybe they poker a little. You know, they are officially ready to end the show, so Syfy can't try to give them less funds if they want to have several more eps filmed for the syndication...

I think that's one of the good things about the Underground Sanctuary. Now they can do everything completely in green screen, they only need one set.

[Skydiver]

I think green screens are a mixed blessing. They are great for saving money, but also practical sets end up being cheaper. SUch as magnus' office, Henry's lab, etc

there's a lot that they do practical. Such as the FBI/SCIU headquarters, addson's office, Homeland, etc.

The one visual giveaway to something being green screened, it's massive. Like Magnus' bedroom....who has what looks like a 50x50 bedroom? The entry hall of the Sanctuary. A lot of the rooms are unnaturally big.

But, beyond that,

Spoiler:

yeah, they have the chance to start all over, which can be good, can be bad. But I think it adds a new element to the show....instead of the 'government ignores us and lets us do what we want', they'll have to sneak in and sneak out, fixing things on the sly and then vanishing. It adds more intrigue and mystery to the whole thing....and maybe takes us back to how it was in the beginning, finding and fixing monster of the week rather than dealing with a season long plot arc of government conspiracy.

But they need to built new virtual sets and that costs money. They had standing sets and virtual sets already built that saved them money.

Happy new year everyone. Ok this is my first time on the thread but I enjoyed S4 much more than I did S3. Tbh the way 4 closed it could safely be the end but as others have said it could create the opportunity for new things for a S5. My vote goes to yes to S5.

And now for the dumb question: Is John really dead?

Say it ain't so

Unfortunately Sanctuary special effects are not the best; clearly not movie quality (Avatar and the like), but imho they're not even on par with what we've seen on other TV shows (Fringe and Terra Nova)

@Syfy Back from my holiday break. Let's start the New Year with a Q&A. What's on your mind? (And no #Sanctuary fans, I have no news for you.)

[es!]

Hahaha, sounds like we bugged them efficiently enough last year

Go us. Do I feel even the slightest bit bad? No. Why, well, after what they did to us in S3.5, it's time they felt how annoying things can be for a change.

@GillianHorvath @Syfy Hey Craig, do you remember that ad NBC ran when they renewed Quantum Leap? Network exec covered in avalanche of viewer mail. ;-)

@GillianHorvath (Not suggesting anyone inundate @Syfy with mail -- I think you already did.)

You go, girl.

Well at least we know someone's paying attention to the tweets.
