The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I've watched the entire Warehouse 13 series. Multiple times. Warehouse 13, along with Eureka, are my all-time favorites. Thanks to the Directors, Writers, Editors, and Actors (along with all the great behind-the-scenes stagehands, and other helpers.). Such a lovely addition to the SciFi genre. Highly recommended! I especially liked the acting of Allison Scagliotti. She's a gifted actor, not to mention, one of the hottest new stars in Hollywood. (See my review of her new show, "Stitchers".) And, the chemistry between Joanne Kelly and Eddie McClintock brings a lot to each episode. Let me not overlook Saul Rubinek. He has brought so much to stage and screen over the years. The interaction between ALL the main characters is entertaining and absolutely "electric".

I saw every episode of this show and i enjoyed it, when it started it where kinda like, Pete and Myka where always alone independent of others, then they met with the rest of the characters and they changed like when you meet friends that are like family. Hell i did not even see it where canceled, it maked perfectly sense, every 100 years they move on without the present 'archivers' we knew it from the start they tied loose ends. The purple goo did'nt have origin story because the artifacts energy did'nt have an origin story it is energy connected to an item though an event the goo counters the event like when you make fire to keep warm and add water to put it out and the bags removes the static electricity as long it is in the bag, like antistatic bags do ;). The bronzing process where paracelsius design he were obsessed with eternal youth maybe it where his way to temporarily make him so til someone debronzing him My only downside is that the could have made the last episode a double because it seemed they stuffed too much in the last one, besides that i felt entertained throughout the show and for me that's all that matters. My advise, see it as a show in it's own category and don't compare it, to every other show in the sci-fi category.

So I started watching this show with high hopes (especially with all my friends raving about it) but I wasn't overwhelmingly impressed.So the show is about this warehouse is middle of the desert of south Dakota where they store dangerous magical artefacts to protect their power from the general public. Great premise to get you started... but then the cracks begin to show...1. Of all the government agencies to run this secret installation they decided that secret service was the logical choice??? Come on! And the "ah the president isn't here" jokes are lame right up front2. There's magic purple goo that de-magics everything. yet how his magic goo came into existence or where it comes from isn't fully explained 3. The bad evil people who cannot be allowed to be in the wide world get cryogenically frozen and then encased in bronze?? Wtf???? Again something that is not properly explained whyThe biggest saving grace of this show is Eddie McClintock (as Pete) who is a lot of fun to watch (and even easier on the eyes). The character of Myka only works because Pete is there. The only other interesting character is Claudia (the Abby Scuito of W13) and everyone else is just meh.Bottom line: watch it once for the novelty (and suspend all logic thought)

A play on words, as they say. Wh13 was an initial hit. The likeness of which cannot be compared to a masterpiece like eureka in the overall aspect. The show was originally spectacular and gave premise to such amazing prospects. When your boss is communist, however, your future is destined for failure.As the final seasons, second season onward, came to fruition, the show was doomed. That's not even due to the fact that it classified itself as the sister show to eureka. The writing became ghastly and the acting became painful to watch. The show deserves credit though. It had a fantastic outline, it just never fulfilled it's expectations thanks partially to the idiotic side struggles the writers felt necessary to tie in.If you liked the first few episodes, just go watch eureka and you will be much happier. I was overseas when eureka premiered thus I started wh13 from the beginning. I was far happier watching reruns of eureka as opposed to the garbage wh13 constantly had to offer.Spoiler alert...This will save you heartache...Wh13 was canceled just as eureka was due to it's premise. Myka and Pete kiss and Claudia becomes caretaker of the warehouse. In essence, thats all we get after five seasons. Boring if you ask me.
