The SciFi channel over here just put on a marathon of Warehouse 13 and I found it fascinating...
... There were so many comparisons I could make that I really couldn't pigeonhole it but one of the more interesting things was the generally "stempunk" feel to the costumes and props: Volta's lab coat, the Tesla gun, goggles and helmets, even the TV-in-a-tin was retro!
Good entertainment!

This show is one of my favorites on today. I'm looking forward to the new season coming up in a few weeks.
Eddie McClintlock is a friend of our mutual friend Dave Andrews.
I know a number of people who have made replicas of the Tesla Gun and the Farnsworth communicator.
Steampunk always fascinated me even before it had the name.
The original Time Machine and 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, among others, to the more modern League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
The mix of Sci-Fi, Brass and Steam is a very cool combination.
THIS SITE just had an event near me, unfortunately I couldn't make it. They just had another in Jersey.

You guys have all the fun on your side of the Big Pond! I remember seeing something similar on the West Coast recently. I must admit, after a brief flirtation with Crimson Skies fandom, I've got plans for doing something Indie in an alternative reality based on the post WWI - pre WWII period which would make it closer to Diesel Punk or Pulp era.
As regards Warehouse 13, its good to hear that it has survived into another season, would that be season three? What I saw was great entertainment and when it all boils doen - that is what we pay for!

WH13 has been very enjoyable for the most part. Interesting characters, good chemistry and the artifacts have been very creative.
