Syfy Renews 'Sanctuary'
Orders a Fourth Season of Amanda Tapping Scripted Series
by MCN Staff -- Multichannel News, 1/18/2011
Syfy said it has commissioned a fourth season of scripted series Sanctuary.
Production of the new 13-episode season will begin this spring in Vancouver, aiming for a fall 2011 premiere.
The show, starring Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis alum Amanda Tapping, has continued to perform well at a time when some other high-profile sci-fi series on the network have faltered. Syfy canceled Caprica, a spinoff of hit drama Battlestar Galactica, midway through its freshman run, and denied Stargate Universe a third season, seemingly ending the Stargate franchise's extended run on the network.
SGU fans and producers partly blamed a move from "Sci Fri Friday" to Tuesday nights for a falloff in that show's audience, so Sanctuary may have benefited from staying on Friday nights, after the network reversed a plan to move it to Tuesday.
Sanctuary's third-season premiere on Oct. 15 drew nearly 1.8 million total viewers on a live plus same day basis, according to Nielsen figures, and has been consistent in drawing between 1.25 million and 1.5 million viewers to episode premieres using that yardstick...
