Hartford Courant (Hartford, CT):

What’s on Tonight

New on cable is "Sanctuary" (Sci Fi, 9 p.m.), a series about a woman who collects fantastic and odd creatures and monsters in her castle-like home. Amanda Tapping of "Stargate SG-1" runs the place; she recruits a skeptical forensic psychiatrist played by Robin Dunne, who elicits a Harry Potter-Daniel Radcliffe vibe. Highly dependent on green screen technology, it doesn't seem like a bad series. Tonight's premiere is two hours.

Lansing State Journal (Lansing, MI):

TV tonight

• "Sanctuary" debut, 9-11 p.m., Sci Fi Channel. At first, this seems like a drab crime show, but with nastier deaths. A young forensic psychiatrist meets an all-knowing person (Amanda Tapping of "Stargate"). Stick around, though. We'll meet a tough teen (Emilie Ullerup) and a scary guy; it all fits together.

Sanctuary (Sci Fi)

Series Premiere: Friday at 9pm on SCI FI

Stargate SG-1 fans will be thrilled to see Amanda Tapping (who played the brilliant Col. Samantha Carter on the SCI FI series) back in action as Dr. Helen Magnus, the (also brilliant) scientist who holds the secrets of a clandestine population -- a group of strange and sometimes terrifying beings that hide among humans. Along with her new recruit, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Will Zimmerman, her quirky tech wiz Henry, and her fearless daughter Ashley, Magnus tries to protect this threatened phenomena and unlock the mysteries behind their existence. Viewers who go ga-ga over special effects might be interested to know that "Sanctuary" is the first series to shoot extensively on green screen, using virtual sets and amazing visual effects.
