Heard it premieres tonight at 9 eastern, and from the preview I watched on youtube I have no idea what it is about besides secret things, which interest me.

Anyone know anything more?

It's about a area 51 type warehouse that houses all sorts of weird/scifi artifacts and 2 secret service agents involved in tracking down the artifacts. Herc on AICN reviewed it today and said it was kinda disappointing. Other critical reviews have been mixed.

on meta-critic it has a 61/100 after 15 reviews, which is pretty solid. i may check it out.

It kinda seems like X-Files mixed with Indiana Jones. The pilot episode was pretty good.

It looks like a MIB thing except with supernatural instead of aliens.

I watched it, good entertainment for a tuesday eve. The two SS agents did not have a lot of chemistry and the guy who runs the warehouse was terrible actor. But then again this is the SYFY channel. Not as good as Eureaka

I liked it. The guy who ran the warehouse was on a couple epps of stargate too. Scifi seems to reuse actors

just finished the pilot

not too impressed- I really agree with everything the review from AICN said

it wasnt awful, the premise is good and it has some potential, but the storyline was pretty weak for the opening episode. I was hoping it would be a little darker, but that sort of light-hearted humor mixed in with mystery is weak. The final confrontation scene was downright terrible.

Mira Sorvino & the Templar Knights would have been disappointed

I'm a SyFy buff... I'm sure to give it time to prove itself.

I also don't like the "old technology" gimmick. Look how magical, we've had electric cars and video communicators for much longer than you thought. That was just retarded. Wow, a small, slow electric car, that'd have solved so many of today's problems if they had continued working on that technology instead of switching to gas! We might have gotten electric golf carts in the 20's instead of the 50's. And today's cell phones provide better quality video conferencing that's not in black and white and comes in a much smaller device that also accesses the Internet. What were they thinking?

that didnt bother me so much - they went out of the way to impress that there was no cell phone coverage, yet, these devices worked 100% all the time

I got the impression that you could be in a cave and talk to someone on top a mountain
