Syfy announces third season for top-rated series [Warehouse 13]

Syfy has announced Warehouse 13, the channel’s most successful series ever, will begin production of its third season beginning February 9. Warehouse 13 will return with 13 new episodes beginning this summer.

Warehouse 13 follows two Secret Service agents who find themselves abruptly transferred to a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota which houses every strange artifact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and preternatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government.

The Warehouse’s caretaker Artie Nielsen (Saul Rubinek) charges Agents Pete Lattimer (Eddie McClintock) and Myka Bering (Kelly) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the Warehouse, as well as helping him to control the Warehouse itself. Allison Scagliotti plays Claudia Donovan, Artie’s apprentice.

With key questions left hanging from the gripping season two finale. Has Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly) left the Warehouse team for good? Have we seen the last of villainous H.G. Wells (Jaime Murray)?

If you’re a betting person, I’d wager that the answer to both these questions is “no.”

During its second season, Warehouse 13 averaged 3.43 million total viewers, making it the most watched Syfy series of 2010.
