Anyone has watched this "mini series" or is interested?
It had some nice twists and I pretty enjoyed this show.
Now I hope they decide to continue, because the ending absolutely would need that. So far I don't know about a renewal, probably they still have to work it out.

BTW, Tricia Helfer is still quite some eye candy ...
