It also features a load of recognisable faces from TV SF...William B Davis (the Cigarette Smoking Man), Tony Amendola (Master Bra'tac from
SG-1), Brian Markinson (GDD Agent Duram from
Caprica), Jennifer Spence (Dr Park from
SG Universe), Mike Dopud (Varro from
SG Universe, also played two other characters in
SG-1 and one in
Atlantis), Lexa Doig (Dr Lam in
SG-1, Andromeda in
Andromeda)... plus also Roger Cross (Curtis from
24).
I've already seen all ten episodes from season 1 and I think it's great. Viewers in Canada agree - it's been a huge success for Canadian network Showcase, pulling in even higher ratings than Showcase's previous no. 1 rated show
Lost Girl. Showcase has already renewed it for a 13 episode second season.
Hell, it's also worth watching just for the super-fit female lead, and her tight yet technologically advanced catsuit.
