Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times "Sanctuary" looks good. The most original thing about the series is its reliance on the green-screen: 90% of the sets are virtual, unheard of for a television series, and while some have the low-detail, wide-angled look of video-game environments. May 8, 2018 Full Review Linda Stasi New York Post The monsters are first rate, the virtual sets are very cool, the acting is excellent. Why I was fighting fatigue while watching, I can't say. It was either the martinis from Steve Dunleavy's farewell party - or the plot. May 8, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

David W One of the very best sci-fi series from the period. Very well acted and plotted. Having recently rewatched it, whilst some of the CGI looks a bit ropy by today's standards, the rest is as fresh as the day it was minted. One of my all time favourite shows of recent years. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/04/24 Full Review Read all reviews
