Decent scripts could make it work anyway, but the first two episodes at least don't bode well; the stories are flat, and the repartee between Jane and her teammates isn't zippy enough to amuse even the comic-book crowd.

Not helping matters either are the wretched dialogue, indiscriminately moody lighting, stock characters (gruff boss, dweeby tech guy, ripped chauvinist colleague), and crushing lack of suspense. I felt the pain, believe me.

Moody and fast-paced, this is good, only minimally pretentious, sci-fi fun.

Based on this first meeting, however, only guys with a taste for camp or genuinely desperate to see a female in the living room would willingly book a second date with "Jane."

"Painkiller Jane" doesn't soar to the dramatic heights of "Battlestar," but it is a step above some of the network's other programs, a procedural thriller with a sense of humor and stylish action scenes.

The series doesn't come close to capturing the edgy tone and visual style of the print original.

It's too bad because tough-talking, smoky-voiced broads are among America's greatest contributions to world culture and they are in very short supply these days.
