So, I've started watching Warehouse 13 on Netflix. It's sort of a cross between The X-Files and Poltergeist: The Legacy - a couple of Secret Service agents are assigned to a black-budget operation that finds and secures objects with paranormal qualities. I thought it would be just O.K., but so far (4 episodes in) it's exceeding those expectations.
One of my favorite quotes so far, which also gives some insight into the show's sensibilities: One of the characters is looking at the warehouse's wiring diagram and says, "Who designed this thing?" The response: "Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and M. C. Escher."
