Well according to Sarah Warn over at afterellen it has been. There's been no official confirmation of that yet. But I share your incredulity.
I kept shaking my head and wondering how it was even possible that the whole cast and crew thought it was okay to film this silly plot.
Yeah, for some of these episodes you really wonder if anyone read the whole script, or watched the whole finished product.
what was that about Jane practically torturing that poor guy Alan, forcing him to revisit an obviously traumatic experience
Was Alan the first crazy guy that was scared of her gun, or the killer guy. Cause I didn't feel too bad for the killer guy what with him being a killer and all.
like someone thought that maybe something strange had happened ?!?
lol, reminds me of that Buffy quote (paraphrased) "I know that something's happening. Not in the sense that I know what's going on, but I know that there's something I don't know!
When she totally lied to the doctor I wasn't even surprised.
Really didn't like this move, and hope that it's a result of the episode being aired out of order instead of a sign of where Jane is going. With the talk of Jane maybe being a neuro at the end, and Mo saying "we can't do that, can we? Someone should tell her that." I think that maybe this should have been one of the first episodes before Jane starts sympathizing with the neuros. At least I hope so, cause totally didn't like that decision.
but I'm wondering about her judgment esp. given that she's a producer on the show.
lol. I've been thinking the exact same thing. It's like 'you have some control over this, how can you be letting this crap go to air with your name attached to it?'. I mean, in her defensive she's a novice executive producer, but there are plenty of good genre writers writing for shows out in Vancouver, she should at least see if she could steal some of them over to PKJ (especially soon to be out of work BSG writers). It's like if you don't know how to fix it, hire someone who does!
I'm going to hazard a guess that what we're seeing is the LoserFanBoy/LoserFanGirl (counting myself amongst those since I likely will keep watching) factor at work here. There must be enough of them watching to keep the ratings reasonable?
I think that's a reasonable assumption. Or they're hoping that more genre fans will gravitate towards it eventually. In any case I'm going to continue to help keep this piece of crap on the air. I mean, if Mutant X, Relic Hunter, Andromeda and loads of other shows could have multiple seasons, why not PKJ with my pretty, pretty, silky voice Lokinator?
no subject
