Great picks! The only other one I can think of is "The Tomorrow People," though I stopped watching it after only the first episode. Does that one count as paranormal?
ReplyDeleteIt's not my favourite, but there's a brand new show on the SyFy channel, that premieres on the 13th, it's called Bitten, and it's based on Kelley Armstrong's The women of the otherworld series.
