The future of TV?

I have discovered Sanctuary.

"What is Sanctuary?", I hear you ask. To quote the FAQ:
"Sanctuary is a web-based science fiction series starring Amanda Tapping, Robin Dunne, Emilie Ullerup & Chris Heyerdahl. Fusing stunning visual effects, video game technology and cutting edge web design, Sanctuary takes the viewer into a thrilling world where science meets the supernatural. This fictional online universe fills the void left by traditional network television by providing multiple High Definition resolutions, immersive interaction, and direct communication between the viewer and the Sanctuary creative team.

I like what I have seen so far and the concept seems to be backed up with the technology and the production experience, enough for it to be a viable option, at least on paper. First 4 episodes are free and pay as you go after that. That's certainly enough of an opportunity to get a feel for the series. It will be interesting to see what happens after that!

Judge for yourself - the trailer's available
