What is this show or episode about?

It's about a genetically engineered girl living in the future in "depression" America, who goes around beating up bad guys. 

How frequently do you watch this show?

Sometimes I catch it if I happen to be around or have nothing better to do. 

Do you like the plots or stories of the show? What do you like or dislike about them?

The main story line is amazing. It's original, it's in the future (so there aren't really any barriers for creativity) and guys think Jessica Alba is sexy, and Logan is pretty okay looking. The problem is that the plots arent as good as they could have been. 

Is there anything you would like to see happen in the story of the show right now?

I wish there was more action. They are devoting too much time on Max's old "siblings" and her struggle to get them to realize what a crappy world they live in. 

Who are the main actors and actresses on this program, or the people who star in it?

Jessica Alba is Max, a genetically engineered girl who escaped with some of her siblings from their laboratory. Original Cindy, Max's lesbian best friend. Logan, the rich boyfriend. 

How would you describe the acting?

Pretty good - some of the actors shine more than others. 

Do you feel like you know the characters in the show personally, or that you can relate to the characters or people in it? Who is your favorite or least favorite?

I really can't relate to anyone on the show. I feel that Max's thoughts seem to run around the same old circle. The main problem is the show isn't engaging enough. I mean, like Angel and Buffy, though I know ahead what's gonna happen, I still love watching it. While with Dark Angel, I don't know what's gonna happen, but I still dont feel like watching it. 

What age group would most enjoy watching this show? Any ages who wouldn't like it or shouldn't watch it?

10-20 I guess. The younger crowd would obviously prefer Cartoon Network and the older guys would rather watch Oprah. 

Do you know any interesting facts about the show, its actors or creators?

Yeah. Jessica Alba is engaged to the guy who plays Logan, though she's like 20 and he's 33 or something like that. 

What, if anything, would you change about the way show is written, staged, or produced? Do you like the way the characters talk, what they wear, what the set looks like, etc.?

The way the show is written!! It had so much potential and then it just fizzed out. 

Do you have any other comments about yourself or the program that would give us a better understanding of your review?

I love playing around with tv series story lines.
