Sci Fi Channel has signed on for a 13-episode season of the new science fiction drama Sanctuary. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Stargate SG-1 writer-producer Damian Kindler, star Amanda Tapping and producer-director Martin Wood will executive produce the series with Sam Egan.

Amanda Tapping will star as Dr. Helen Magnus who is on a quest with her young protege, Will Zimmerman, to track down, aid and protect strange creatures that walk the earth. Sanctuary will be the first television series to use live-action actors against virtual sets in the style of the feature 300.

The series will air on the Sci Fi Channel later this year.

Amanda Tapping is a 'Hot babe' so why can't she play a regular babe?
Technobabble must be pretty boring to her now after 10yrs playing Dr Sam Carter on SG1 + 1yr on Atlantis?

Show sounds like Primeval, a UK show about dinos with no black/asian actors. The whitest sci fi show on UK tv.
