Im loving your appreciation for righteous anger as expressed by mindless, vengeful comical violence! First Die Hard, now Nikki!May Kasahara said:Yeah...I also like Nikki and her (so far) completely psychotic blood-drenched maniac alter ego. Being a kill-crazy mirror ghost is a wicked super power
From the first episode you're wanting complex characters and multi-threaded plots with topical commentary (and need I add large dollops of sex) ?sorearm said:I tell you what, compare this to say, battlestar galactica and compare the craft of well written scripts, developed characters ... nah it seems to be from the Lost type of programmes.

BSG never got onto the beeb and it started in 2003. (even though I say BSG is by far superior...to just about anything on TV).
Anyway..that cheerleader is younger than Boomer, so up yours.

I'll give it another couple of episodes though, at least charlie brooker in screenburn gave it a bit of a thumbs up so I'm hoping my faith will be rewarded ...
that cheerleader ... don't you think she's got a bit of an orange face? bit too much satsuma tan / grout-like foundation dontyathink?
sorearm said:Am I the only one who didn't like it?
I thought the characters were all pretty undeveloped - apart from Nikki who seems a bit more spooky than the others.
The cheerleader (wolverine anyone? amazing ability to heal) who always has accidents like getting rugby tackled and her neck broken....
... the japanese guy was slightly interesting but it's a much used narrative in sci fi.

Exactly! Stick with it, starts a bit slow but gets really really good.
