Wouldn't surprise me, and that's good. Until there are really aware feminist women in the chair I'm interested in the sense of "good, get more equality in the writers' room" but not so much "yes, there'll be a definite shift in the treatment of women on TV." More female perspective is going to push us forward regardless, but too many women are entrenched in the patriarchal mindset for me to assume there'll be much of a shift just because the butts in the chairs are ladylike :)
Re. Sanctuary, I've heard good buzz (and actually had the opportunity to be at an instore signing with Amanda Tapping when I was in the US last year, but I wasn't interested so didn't stick around). I'm not sure if it's sci-fi or character drama set against a sci-fi landscape? I'm fine with the latter but am not really a sci-fi person. I'll likely wait to see if it starts getting more attention from people on my flist before I check it out.
