With Battlestar Galactica wrapped and done with, Katee Sackoff is moving on with her career. She has been cast in a detective drama for NBC called Lost and Found about a cop who is sent to the basement as punishment to handle cases that nobody else wants.Sackoff was excellent in her Starbuck role in Battlestar Galactica and I'm very much looking forward to the final episodes in January. She put on such a good performance, in fact, that I hope she isn't typecast as an unstable woman (her role in Bionic Woman was somewhat reminiscent. Her episodes of Nip/Tuck haven't been broadcast yet so I can't comment on them).
There is also the premise of this show. It's one which I've seen before, most notably with The X-Files. Maybe NBC is trying to get that demographic. Will this be another one of those subtle sci-fi shows, such as Lost? If so, I can understand the casting choice since they'd want to pull in the sci-fi fans and Katee would be a familiar face to that bunch. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Do we even know this is a scifi series? From your description, that isn't clear, and I certainly wouldn't assume it, given the incredible reluctance for scifi by broadcast programmers.

According to Zap2it, this series is created by Dick Wolf of Law and Order, Law and Order:SVU, Law and Order: CI, and the short lived Conviction (Law and Order). With that kind of track record, I seriously doubt this is a Scifi show. Probably more like Cold Case (possibly with a twist).

Better description of show. Not Scifi - but I think that would have worked.

I really liked what I have seen of her, and this could be a good show for her. I wanted to see more of her in Bionic Woman.
