The show looks great, I heard it looks even better in HD, but I don't have HD.
Amanda Tapping's character is a Dr, I guess she some kind of mutant cause she's about 150 yrs old. She and her daughter have this sanctuary, and they go out and rescue, or capture creatures because they are either in danger or they are dangerous. They hired a forensic psychologist to help them, (he looks a lot like Daniel Jackson) because his mother was killed by a "monster" when he was 8, but no one believed him. He spent his life studying the mind.. and blah blah. Anyway, it has great potential for interesting episodes. Hopefully SCIFI channel won't fuck it up!
