I haven’t watched the Sanctuary premiere yet, but one of my writers reviewed it and it seems that it had better fix its pacing issues pretty quickly.

In both cases the shows imported their web audience, but Sanctuary fans were treated to significantly upgraded content. I think the lesson here is that the web may be a better incubator for IP than an actual broadcast extension.</p> Another key difference between the two shows: Quarterlife made its migration from web basically “as is,” meaning the show was simply reformatted for broadcast; whereas, Sanctuary was completely reshot for broadcast, making it wholly different than its web predecessor.
