Last week on Dominion, we had an action-packed episode, filled with gore, naked angel ass, and holy fire. Claire (Roxanne McKee), to David’s (Anthony Head) fury, dropped a bomb on Gabriel’s (Carl Beukes) aerie, tearing many of his minions to pieces, but failing to disintigrate the main target. It did allow Alex (Christopher Egan) and Noma (Kim Engelbrecht) to escape. And somehow, Alex’s tattoos cured an 8-Ball, and now they have a human tagalong. Michael (Tom Wisdom) happened upon a town, protected by a fire in the center, that keeps 8-balls away. They believe they speak to God. Michael is skeptical, however, fights alongside them when the fire goes out during a storm.

Dominion on Syfy returned for season 2 last Thursday night, and did not short us on excitement and beheadings. Loosely based on the film Legion, Season 1 was 8 episodes, and introduced us to the battle between angels and humans. God is missing (Dogma?), and almost all of the angels led by the archangel Gabriel (Carl Beukes), want to destroy them all. He recruits lesser angels called 8-balls – angel-possessed humans, named as such for their all black eyes. They are vicious and snarl a lot with their sharp teeth. Set 25 years after God disappeared, this apocalyptic show finds humans settled in the city of Vega (short for Las Vegas). The archangel Michael (Tom Wisdom) has sided with humanity. There is also a prophecy of a “Chosen One” in the form of Alex (Christopher Egan), who is Charlie’s son from Legion. Alex has moving tattoos that give him guidance. And Claire (Roxanne McKee) is the head of Vega, and having Alex’s baby. Oh, and I think Giles, I mean David Whele (Anthony Head), is evil. Caught up?

Dominion is intriguing me. I’ve been seeing clips and trailers for it on Syfy while reviewing Olympus.

Based on the film Legion, it’s a battle of brothers, as archangel Gabriel (Carl Beukes) wars with mankind, while archangel Michael (Tom Wisdom) sides with man, and is holed up in the fortified city of Vega.

Check out the season 2 trailer, as well as the extended trailer below.

Sure Syfy Channel has a ton of reality television, but if those inexpensive shows help fluff the network’s budget for a few good scripted genre shows then they can hunt for ghosts wherever they like!

The network’s President, Dave Howe, announced yesterday that they have greenlit a new supernatural series to full season. The show is titled Dominion, and it is a sequel to the movie Legion, which starred Paul Bettany as archangel Michael, Dennis Quaid, Lucas Black, Adrianne Palicki, Tyrese Gibson, Charles S. Dutton, and Kevin Durand as archangel Gabriel.
