 One of the better Sci Fi channel shows November 12, 2008
Without getting too upset, I wish Sci Fi would have followed the true character from the comics a little more closely but hey, it was Sci Fi so I expected them to add a sci fi value to the series. As the series moved along, it did pick up some steam and the writing/stories got much better. Loken really did get the character's attitude and passion for what she was trying to accomplish. I'm glad this was collected into a full package and was upset when Sci Fi didn't renew the series. For Sci Fi, it was a great series placed at a horrible time slot (Friday 10pm). So take this chance and grab the series.
Loken can actually act! Who new? July 23, 2008
I caught part of a show on Sci-Fi but never saw enough to form an opinion so I bought this set. Despite obvious budget challenges, this is a pretty darn good show. And yes, the lead actor can act! The sets are gritty enough but obviously Vancouver. I have only watched 7 episodes so far but find them highly enjoyable for what they are. The zombie one was a unique take on and old subject. Twisted for sure. There is a good imagination at work here and I for one am dissapointed this show never got a chance to grow a fan base.
 interesting idea, boring show July 17, 2008

I was interested in the idea, but this show has to rank with the Nikita series as the most disappointing shows that we've bought. It was so bad we ended up throwing away the dvd's after watching a couple of shows (unfortunately, we'd waited too long to watch any of them to send it back). My wife and I both felt that the show as so bad that it didn't even rate an inch of shelf space.

We loved watching pain killer Jane on T.V. So we were happy it came out on DVD.. It's a shame it's no longer on T.V., but at least we can watch it any time!! It was a great show..so sad they took it off the air!!
 Hugely disappointing May 15, 2008

SciFi retooled a promising pilot/mini-series, recast it, and started from scratch: they blew it big time. Wooden acting, dull stories, and voice-overs from Loken that are horrible. The main 'threat' in the plot are people with unusual mental powers called Neuros, but she persists in pronouncing the work "knee-rows" and they never troubled themselves to fix it. The look and feel, production values are not bad, but the writing and acting are of poor quality. Save your money. Buy Dresden Files or Eureka or BSG to get some good stuff (rare though it may be) from the SciFi channel.
