It's another SciFi Channel show. Stars Amanda Tapping from the Stargate shows, though she magically acquired a British accent for this one. From good ol' Wikipedia:
Sanctuary follows the exploits of Dr. Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) as she seeks out all manner of terrifying and monstrous creatures. Some of these creatures she needs to lock up to protect the public, and some of them she needs to protect from the public. She is aided in her quest by her reluctant protégé Will Zimmerman (Robin Dunne), her intrepid, if somewhat reckless, daughter Ashley (Emilie Ullerup), the talkative geek Henry Foss (Ryan Robbins), a computer and security expert, and Bigfoot (uncredited actor), her taciturn Neanderthal-like assistant.
If it wasn't based off of a comic book series it could have been. Plenty of action and gun-play to entertain on a Friday night. All that and monsters too...
