Warehouse 13

Warehouse 13 is about the freshest thing I've recorded lately. Anyone else catch it? What did you think?

Re: Warehouse 13

Rats ... I missed it. I would have thought it would show up in the community recordings that I'm subscribing to. You know, one of the "advanced" features where you can have SS.net upload to your BTV (to be recorded) the top x number of shows users are recording.

Do you know if they are they re-running the pilot anytime soon ?

About every few hours or so.

Today Central Time on SyFy:
3pm
9pm
11pm (USA)

and again Sunday over and over. They don't want you to miss it.

I recorded it, but haven't watched it yet. I'm hearing good things about it. And the new season of Eureka is on tonight as well.

Re: Warehouse 13

I watched it and it was OK. Didn't think it was all that original, it reminded me of Friday the 13th the series that ran a several years back. I will continue to watch it, but I didn't find it groundbreaking or anything.

I don't have cable, but did see the promos for the show and Friday The 13th came to mind also. Wow, back in 1987 even!

I wonder if that's why it's Warehoue 13

Re: Warehouse 13

I just watched it, funny how the same actors keep showing up on FX, Syfy and USA (Claudette from the Shield this time). The main agents remind me of Booth from Bones and the girl from Life (Forgot her name). Its sort of along the line of Sanctuary, although this one seems more entertaining (althought the hot daughter with blazing weapons, Jack the Ripper and Tesla are pretty cool).

Either way, I think its good enough to keep watching. Also we've got Eureka coming back tonight, and Torchwood should be starting the miniseason July 20th (I broke down and watched the BBC versions, very impressive so far)

Re: Warehouse 13

Actually I thought it was pretty much like the TNT movie series "The Librarian", starring Noah Wyle. Very similar except that in the Librarian Noah did not have a permanent sidekick.

Synopsis:

Noah Wyle (of TV's "ER") stars as Flynn Carson, a brilliant student who, although he'd prefer to stay in college and add on to his 22 degrees, is finally forced to get a job. Landing a position at a library that secretly houses some of the greatest treasures of history, Flynn is soon hurled into a madcap adventure when one of the priceless relics, the Spear of Destiny, is pilfered from the library's vaults.

I believe there were three of the "Librarian" movies made. In "Warehouse 13" it seems like all they did was give the lead guy a sidekick, and move the huge storage of antiquities from the gigantic hidden section of a library to a warehouse out in the bushes.

The "concept" IMHO was identical. I enjoyed "Warehouse 13" never-the-less. I wasn't wowed, but then I didn't fall asleep watching it.

Off topic - I was happy to see Eureka come back.

Re: Warehouse 13

It was good clean fun. A little too predictable at times, and the special effects were on the low budget side, But hey, I enjoyed it and that's the reason to watch it.

Bye.

Re: Warehouse 13

The second episode wasn't bad. The camera thing was a bit cheesy though. I will keep watching for now.

I was also glad to see Eureka back.
