Sanctuary second season good?

Jimilu · December 18 2009, 04:55 PM

I have the complete 2d season on my DVR, should i watch it or delete it?

Forbin · December 18 2009, 05:03 PM

The second season isn't over yet, so no you don't.

At this point, the only reason I'm watching it is because I like Amada Tapping. The show is generally fairly dull and silly. My wife and I both fell asleep in the middle last week and woke up 1/2 hour into the SG:U rerun.

I think it's much better than the first season. The show has a great aesthetic, purely from a visual POV it is fantastic IMO, but it can drag badly. The characters are not particularly endearing and the stories sometimes boring.

It hits more than it misses though.

Actually last night's vampire-fest was fun. Tesla gave us a few laughs.

Guy Gardener · December 19 2009, 07:53 PM

But that's the same with every show... The antihero hesitantly playing on the side of angels is always hilarious and exciting.

but then if you give one of them their own show you end up with shite like highlander the Raven.

there's been maybe three shows that were good a few that sucked and a couple that the trapped in a box Stargate formula was so apparent that you really couldn't do any thing but turn the tv off.

Yeah, that would be like giving Spike his own show after Buffy. He'd walk around cracking lines while he killed people, and raping hot blondes in bathrooms, but without the straight-laced character leads to bounce things off it stops being funny.

You mean like Rota after she left the Mary Tyler Moore Show?

Quite the unexpected bodycount for a 70s sitcom about newly weds.

Forbin · December 21 2009, 04:22 AM

Rhoda.

Guy Gardener · December 21 2009, 03:18 PM

Well, excuse my lax scrutiny!

I doubt I can spell Bertinelli either.

Jimilu · December 22 2009, 01:16 AM

so.. better that the first one, i think the 25 i will have a marathon of sanctuary, my dvr is almost full.

Mistral · December 22 2009, 05:55 PM

Saw first ep, S2 last night. The acting was so bad it hurt. Debating-watch more? Or wipe DVR?

Forbin · December 22 2009, 06:43 PM

Don't wipe (okay, that sounds weird). Give it a few more. But I'm not ready to claim you shouldn't wipe then.

A don't forget to flush.

I like Sanctuary, but it's the kind of kooky b-grade show I like to watch at 3:00 pm on Saturday afternoon when nothing else is on and I'm sitting around with a bag of chips.

God Magnus · December 23 2009, 04:21 AM

S2 has been fun so far, and while the episodes certainly are fun, it's not drawing me in nearly as much as the whole arc towards end of S1 did. I was thankful that the last episode made Kate something other than a wise cracking bad-girl. That act was getting a bit tiresome.
