If you have not yet become a fan of the new SciFi series Sanctuary then you are definitely missing out on something truly special. I finally had a moment to catch up on last weeks episode #6 entitled ‘Nubbins‘ and am so glad that SciFi channel is offering the series up on rewind.
Although the episode started off as a little twist on the Star Trek episode ‘The trouble with Tribbles‘ once these little lovable creatures began multiplying things became more Gremlins like only much nastier. Especially considering that these little lovable fluff balls could turn nearly invisible exhibited a hive mentality and had really sharp teeth to boot.
All in all it was a very enjoyable episode and the series is definitely shaping up to become a cult (if not mainstream) favorite. They have definitely improved the story lines a bit since ‘Folding Man‘ episode 4, and it seems that they are back on track to where they started with ‘Fata Morgana‘ which is completely refreshing.
Ok so enough talking about the show, go watch it for yourself. However if you’ve missed the beginning hurry catch up!!!
I would like to add a footnote it was also nice to see the addition of the ‘abnormal’ Sophie (Katharine Isabelle) and not have her end up being just another casualty. I think the character offered some value to the plot and will likely be worth bring back from time to time. I’m so glad not to see yet another ‘red’ shirt character.
