I know the first season's been over for a while now and the second season won't air 'til next year, but I'm curious how many people here watched it/liked it?

For the curious, Warehouse 13 was a show on SciFi Channel earlier this year that focused on two secret service agents that were yanked from their jobs after an encounter with a dangerous supernatural object and reassigned to service in Warehouse 13, which is just what it says on the tin: A massive warehouse. It's the Warehouse agent's jobs to collect Artifacts, supernatural items that ranged from Lewis Carrol's Mirror to Houdini's Wallet to Training Flight 22 ("Pulled it out of the Triangle. Triangle's been trying to pull it back ever since.")

Sometimes you just need to stop, breathe deep, and scream.


It is an awesome show. I loved the chemistry between all the characters and I loved the history in the objects. Be back in Aug 2010.

Well done. SyFy shows do not have big budgets, but WH 13 got the most out of what it had.

yeah I watched it and liked it too. The chemistry between the characters is great though it will be interesting to see where the second season goes, especially after the season one finale.

I watched it and liked it. Didn't *love* it - it's no Burn Notice, for instance. But I liked it enough that I'll watch it when it comes back, and I'd be disappointed if it DIDN'T come back. Not broken-hearted, mind you, but disappointed.

I'll look forward to it. The "acting" between the two main agents was a bit hard to take early on, but they grew on me. Mostly, it was Artie, Claudia, and CCH Pounder's character that really drew me in. The other two are coming along, and the chemistry of the whole cast is really starting to gel, so I only expect the show to get better.

BTW, the "objects" remind me quite a bit of the Sci-Fi Channel miniseries "The Lost Room", which was quite good, and which I'd have loved to see make a run as a series. Never came to pass, though, so WH-13 is more than good enough.

I enjoy the steampunk-y atmosphere of the Warehouse.

Me too. Kind like Castle Heterodyne in the Girl Genius webcomic.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.


I liked it well enough and will watch when it returns. Not as good as Eureka, but definitely better than SGU or Sanctuary (although that was much better in its first season).

I thought it was pretty cool. Nowhere near as good as Firefly, of course. But that can be said of many Sci-Fi shows nowadays.

The steampunk vibe is nicely done, and the dialog is often Whedonesque.
