I haven’t been watching but apparently many many people did since SCI FI has greenlit production on a second season of Sanctuary,
An order of 13 new hours was announced today by Mark Stern, Executive Vice President, Original Programming, SCI FI & Co-Head, Original Programming, Universal Cable Productions. Sanctuary is slated to begin production in Vancouver early next year for a 2009 premiere.
“SCI FI will continue to trail blaze the television landscape by further exploring the many worlds of Sanctuary through its unique green screen environments,” said Stern. “Technology and great storytelling makes Sanctuary a fantastic addition to SCI FI’s 2009 lineup.”
More than 3 million viewers tuned in to the premiere of Sanctuary on October 3, 2008 making it the highest rated original series premiere since Eureka debuted in July 2006.

Wonderful news for Sanctuary and congratulations to everyone on the show. I enjoyed Sanctuary when it was webisodes on the internet, and enjoying Sanctuary even more now that it’s on the SciFi Channel.
