Dear Sanctuary:

Oy vey.  You give scifi a bad name.  And stealing plot lines from your betters doesn't endear me to you.

However, I will admit Kavan Smith (Lorne, SGA) looks sexy in a shoulder holster.

Lorne's in it? Damn. I might actually have to watch. SciFi Channel, why do you hate me so?

His scenes might be done with already. He's the 'I need to belittle and make fun of the "hero" to push him into trouble and into the hands of the people he needs to meet to skirt the many plot holes' guy.

And Amanda Tapping's accent is PAINFUL

Ah, I see. So I might be safe. *nods*

it repeats again in a little over an hour. If you turn it on at, hmmm 5 minutes into it and watch the next 10 min or so you'll see him.... but, the overall pain might not be worth it- unless you turn it into a drinking game or something

Ha ha. I recorded it but fell asleep before I could watch - I wanted to see because of Amanda Tapping, but I was kind of dreading it because of Amanda Tapping's accent in the promos. WHY would they make her British? Surely they could change her character to a Canadian or American.

Oh well. I'll probably "watch" tomorrow while doing something else. :)

her accent is... interesting is probably the best way to put it, I'll give her that. Errr, enjoy!

I'm recording Sanctuary on my dvr. Hubby likes Amanda Tapping! I guess I will watch it with him tomorrow and hey I might get a couch cuddle so guess that makes it worth a little suffering!!

*keeps fingers crossed for you*

Was he not the sexiest?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I gotta say... shoulder harnesses do lovely things to mean, Kavan in particular. *sighs happily*

[identity profile] adafrog.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
mmm...

[identity profile] awanderingbard.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Mmmm, Kavan Smith. Mmmm, shoulder holsters. Lorne is currently frowning on my desktop background.

I saw a little preview for a preview of Sanctuary on Space the other day. I take it it's not worth checking out?

It wasn't the worst scifi show I've ever seen, but there were MASSIVE plot holes and unbelievable bits to gloss over. If you're doing something else while watching it might not be that bad, at least you'll get some laughs

[identity profile] awanderingbard.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like good cross-stitching time fare, then. And something never to watch with Ama. She can't stand plotholes, which makes her hard to view things with, but an excellent person to read your fic before its posted. :-)

edited to add a rather important missing word.

1)DO I want to know?
And
2)stealing plot lines from your betters?
No, I can't, people will jump on me from on high if I mention RTD's name- OOPS *G*

The main character's predicament is oddly familiar. He's a forensic scientist that no one takes seriously because of his 'strange' and 'outlandish' ideas that the scientific community poo-pooed. He's been downgraded to helping out some crappy police department who doesn't like him. He's youngish with wire-rimmed glasses and light brown hair... sound familiar?

Nope, can't think who you mean *blinks*

Okay, am I crazy or is imdb.com (shock! Awe! terror!) It says David Hewlett was in the pilot as a character named Larry Tolson. Yet I don't remember seeing him. Did anyone else catch him?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
huh, weird. If you look up Sanctuary as the show it says that the episode that aired was "Sanctuary for All" episode 2.1, which has nearly the same plot description as episode 1.1 (where David Hewlett's character supposedly appears), but with a slightly different guest cast. Kavan Smith is NOT listed in 2.1 though, but is in 1.1

I don't know. I certainly don't remember seeing him, but admittedly, I wasn't paying the closest attention

Shoulder holster!

Now I want an icon of Tony in shoulder holster.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Tony in shoulder holster is DREAMY. Especially early in the series with the slightly longer hair. YUM.

oh- btw- did you see the radio interview link that showed up on the ncis newsletter? It's Micheal Weatherly and hysterical and sweet

[identity profile] chatona.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)

For Kavan Smith in a should holster, I may just have to endure the pain (although, I suppose I could always just skip ahead). That man does not get nearly enough screen time. Ever.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-10-04 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
watch the first 30 min then (well, from 5 min in until 25 or 30 min in). unless you want drinking game fodder

You've just said the magic words.
