I don't know who would win in a fight between Lokinator and Caminator, but considering how good they look together I think I'd rather just have a who'd be on top debate...




In order to answer this question I have developed my own Turk, only it's mission is to calculate hotness instead of play chess. 

The answer was:
010101110110100001101111011000000111001100100000011001010110011001100110011010010110111001100111001000000110001101100001011100100110010101110011001011000010000001110111011010000110111101100101011101100110010101110010011000000111001100100000011011110110111000100000011101000110111101110000001000000110100101110100011000000110110001101100001000000110001001100101001000000111010001101000011001010010000001101000011011110111010001110100011001010111001101110100001000000111010001101000011010010110111001100111001000000111100101101111011101010110000001110110011001010010000001100101011101100110010101110010001000000111001101100101011001010110111000100001

Which means "Who's effing cares, whoever's on top it'll be the hottest thing you've ever seen!" for those of you who don't speak binary.

*give puppy-dog eyes to FOX*  Can the T-X please have a guest spot on the show?  Please?  Pretty please with a cherry on top?

SCI FI Channel is pulling the plug on "Painkiller Jane," says The Hollywood Reporter.

The action-hero series starring Kristanna Loken is wrapping production on its 22-episode first-season order, which will run as planned. Sixteen episodes have aired so far, with the season/series finale slated for Sept. 21

Based on the comic book of the same name, "Jane" centers on top DEA agent Jane Vasco (Loken), a woman with regenerative powers who joins a covert government agency that hunts down "neuros," people with neurological powers.


The last episode that aired was an "it's all a dream episode" as well as a clip show. *shakes head* It's the merciful thing to do now, for the viewers (all 5 of us left) AND everyone involved with the show. Seriously, this is like the first cancellation I'm relieved by.

I'll miss seeing Kristanna every week, but hopefully she'll get another show for next season. And I never thought I'd say this, but I'm ready to see her NOT playing a superhero (unless Sarah Connor Chronicles needs TWO Terminatrix's. Then Kristanna could be the evil hate!sex bot and Summer could be the Schoompy!Snuggle!bot who gets into sexy fights to save Sarah from Kristanna).

Let's hope for a a doctor, a lawyer or a cop show (this includes forsenic/crime scene investigation shows)... or if it's a mid-season replacement show based on this years theme she might end up playing an alien, a vampire, a various other type of immortal or a hapless fool who finds herself in a position of great importance. Mostly though, I hope she can joins "Women's Murder Club" with Angie Harmon so I can go ahead and swoon from the overpowering amount of sexy.

So...I haven't watched 1x12 yet, but because I like to prepare myself for the horror that is to come I usually check TWoP for comments before viewing the episode so I know whether to lower my expectations or keep them at a middling level of expectation.

So there I was reading the comments, and apparently spoiler )

Can anyone confirm this? Cause if so I don't know if I'll bother with the episode or the show anymore. It's just the last straw. Okay, I'll probably watch the episode because I'm a glutton for punishment, but it's like the producers are trying to do everything in their power to make me loath this show.

Slightly spoilerific ramble )

Anyway, if anyone knows if that's true for sure, lemme know so I can prepare myself ... TO NEVER WATCH THIS SHOW AGAIN!

*sigh*

Why Lokinator? Why? [fierce whisper]I trusted you![/fw]

Unbelievable, I just watched a decent episode of PKJ. I really liked that episode actually, and because I was thirsty and in need of tasty beverage, I was actually watching away from the screen when the kiss happened, so the visual of that has in no way marred my opinion of the episode. Yatta!

“I’ve been to Mo’s place plenty of times.” Aww, thanks for that writers. That was a nice way to start off the episode, especially since it was followed by Jane talking about having to scrub herself with disinfectant after meeting with Connor. Of course it means nothing because the voice-overs on this show are just a tool to waste time and allow viewers to enjoy the low, raspy tones of Lokinator, but it was fun.

more 'ghosts in the machine' commentary behind cut )

I liked last weeks episode because of the GOGA, but honestly, this is probably the best episode of the series yet. Let’s hope this is a sign that they found their sea legs, and the episodes will be at least tolerable from here on out.

And once again, the show continues to get better. It's not quite genuinely good yet, but it's improving and I have hope that one day I might be able to admit that I watch "Painkiller Jane" out loud.

One thing I wish the show would do is definitively state when the show takes place. We've gotten some half-assed references to it taking place in the future (ex. Jane mentioning that it was 2007 in those flashbacks when she was a kid, and this episode her voice-over on the general crapifiction of everything indicating that they're in some semi-dystopian future), but then the show as has references to "Brangelina" and all of the technology pretty much seems like what we have today only dirtier.

I know the "Dark Angel" references will probably get old really quickly, but I loved that we got a nice overview of the world that they were living in, how it happened, and an actual date (2019) in the first half of the pilot episode. If a show sets up a mythology immediately then they at least have a guideline to follow and at least you get some kind of continuity. Like I'm sorry, if the year for PKJ really is 2027, Jane wanting a threesome with a 60-something Pitt and a 50-something Jolie is ... well maybe a fetish we didn't need to learn about our main character so early on.

Seriously, give us some background information on the world that these people are living in and concretely establish a date so that you can avoid anachronistic references like Brangelina or at least qualify them.

More on episode behind the cut )

Overall, some character development, better writing, a slightly interesting bad guy, moral ambiguity and a splash of humor (ex. Jane asking for a clothes budget) = a step in the right direction.

Yeah, a Lokinator interview with afterellen.com! Kristanna discusses Painkiller Jane, the L Word, Michelle Rodriguez, being an out actress, playing superheroes and much more ...

Check out the interview for the answers to the following questions and more!

AE: I had a chance to watch the first two episodes, and I have to say there already seems to be something of a queer subtext developing between Jane and her friend Maureen, another agent. I was wondering if this was intentional.

AE: I wanted to ask you about the interview you did with The Advocate a few months ago. What kind of reaction did you get to that interview?

AE: Some of those scenes that you shot with Kate Moennig seemed like they might be really uncomfortable physically, like the car scene. Was that fun to do or was it really awkward?

AE: Oh, OK. How did you feel about your performance in BloodRayne?

AE: What is the status of your relationship with Michelle Rodriguez now?


*dreamy sigh* Oh Lokinator how I dig thee! As usually an insightful, classy, humorous, and charming interview from the everyone's favorite Norwegian-Amazon-Equestrian-Farm-Goddess. Stay gold, Kristanna, stay gold!

1 more day until Painkiller Jane! 1 more day until Painkiller Jane! 1 more day until Painkiller Jane! 1 more day until Painkiller Jane!

Edited: because I just found a link to another Kristanna interview on Painkiller Jane here.

Yay! After bemoaning the lack of Lokinator news I just came across a new Painkiller Jane article.

Kristanna Loken: From `Terminator' to `Painkiller' ... behind cut )

*dreamy sigh*

It so totally needs to be April 13th already (even though Global TV likes to frak with me and won't play the pilot episode until April 21st! Frak you Global, frak you and yo mamma because I have my ways, I will see the pilot by April 14th, if I have to cut someone!)

(thinks back to article) *"I was definitely a farm girl, loved to climb trees and sit and eat cherries and ride horses ... I always loved to be barefoot and outdoors..."*

*dreamy sigh*

April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th, April 13th!

So, there's been a slump in Kristanna news lately, no more Painkiller Jane promo pics or trailers, and like 3 minutes of screen time on the TLW each week *waaaah* But once again Youtube has come in handy and I found some new Kristanna clips I hadn't seen before.

I bring you ... Lokinator vs. Superman ... Or, more accurately Lokinator does Superman (kinda)...

Kristanna plays Penny "Barnabeedian" Barns, a woman obsessed with Superman who develops a computer program to try and determine the identity of the Man of Steel. When her computer program hits on a 97% match, Penny is convinced that she has discovered the identity of her true love and immediately sets out to meet ... Jimmy Olson, the Man of Steel. Hilarity ensues.
