Remake of Painkiller Jane (2005) (TV)

Sci-Fi Channel does it again

Sci-Fi Channel does it again They make another GOD AWFUL show

The movie Painkiller Jane made back in 1995 was a fair show to watch and when I saw the previews for this new show I thought they were expanding on that original idea.

I couldn't have been more wrong, this show has NOTHING to do with the movie. It is just another in the current line of awful brain dead sci-fi TV shows that have been cranked out recently. Even the long running Stargate SG1 has been totally ruined by the Sci-fi channels ineptitude. The problem is that TV execs believe Sci-fi fans are to stupid to notice how bad these shows are, in the past they would make a series to capitalize on the success of the Sci-fi movie, they never lasted more then a season and were usually bad but they were far better then this piece of.. I wish they would have taken this show, or any of they're shows, and made something worth watching.

Kristannaa Loken must have lost a bet to sign on for this, but then again she did make Blood Rayne
