Remake of Painkiller Jane (2005) (TV)

Extremely soporific

In fairness, I didn't get beyond the fourth episode before my brain went into a self-induced coma to protect itself. The show may have subsequently improved, but I am simply not bored enough to find out.

I don't really want to single out actors as a reason why this show exerts such cosmic suction, mostly because the technical department are more to blame than they are. Also actors are typically following direction and working from scripts.

Which brings me to my next point. I really wish that this type of show would be called "Has the same name as a comic book" rather than "Based on a comic book." It might get far less negative reviews if it attempted to gain its own audience rather than grabbing for a ready-made audience who are only going to shoot it down if it isn't instantly brilliant.
