Charlie Jade - Kenji - 12-03-2006

Sch-Fi action series "Charlie Jade" has begun since last week. I just saw first episode only, but.....wow, this is really cool! This is TV drama, but quality is like a movie.

Charlie Jade is a rogue private detective in a world dominated by greedy multinational corporations. While on an investigation, Charlie explores a secret desert facility. A massive explosion propels him from his own universe (alphaverse) to a strange parallel universe (betaverse). Soon, Charlie is drawn into a conflict that involves these two universes and one other pacifist universe (gammaverse) with unsuspected terror at its heart.

Looks like it isn't in the U.S. yet. I'm not sure I'd watch it if it did come here, just because the bit about "greedy multinational corporations" bugs me.

"Greedy multinational corporations" bugs you? LOL, Brett, it's Science Fiction! Don't take it serious matter. Wink

There are just too many scifi premises that involve a future ruled by greedy multinational corporations.

Well SF is supposed to be grounded in reality.

There was a time when lots of books were being written that contained a future where corporations were the successors to nations. I don't know why they HAVE to put the word "greedy" in there, unless it is a Canadian television show or something. :p

I'd give it a chance, but I have a feeling that after a while it would get on my nerves. I watched a couple of clips and it seems to move slowly with lots of false angst.

I dunno.

Did you see the series through, Kenji?

It's up to episode four now in the UK and I'm hooked. Don't tell me how it ends Big Grin just if you enjoyed it and if it lived up to your initial impressions.
