In the news: Painkiller Jane review

April 9, 2007 Diane Wild

From PlanetOut.com:

Painkiller Jane
“Dark and slightly green-tinted, like everyone’s wearing dark-green shades, or watching “The Matrix” on continuous loop. It’s so murky, in fact, that you can’t even tell if secret agent Jane “Painkiller” Vasko (sexy sometime “L-Word” guest star Kristanna Loken) is straight or gay.”

In the news: Painkiller Jane interview

From Comics2Film – the show premieres April 21 on CH:

Exclusive: Jimmy Palmiotti talks ‘Painkiller Jane’
This Jane series is different. Joe [Quesada] and I are involved and have something to say if we really see something we don’t agree with. The comic exists on its own and will come out exactly as we see it with no one telling us to change anything and that’s great.

In the news: CBC’s scheduling announcement ‘astonishing’

From John Doyle of the Globe and Mail:

CBC takes the safe road to the ordinary
“Without seeing any of these shows, it’s impossible to make a definitive judgment. But the problem is that the shows sound ordinary and machine-made rather than unconventional or idiosyncratic in any way. CBC is a public broadcaster and should stand out as a home for the challenging, the weird and the provocative shows.”
