Genres: Science Fiction
Rating:
One of the few new Fox Network series of the 2000-2001 season to be tagged as a "sure winner," Dark Angel was produced, written, co-created, and co-directed by James_Cameron, of Terminator and Titanic fame. Nineteen-year-old Jessica_Alba shed her ingenuous Flipper image as Max Guevara, the creation of a diabolical futuristic laboratory that specialized in creating human prototypes for their own evil purposes. Escaping from the lab as a child, Max managed to survive into adulthood through a combination of drop-dead gorgeous looks, the cunning of a fox, the agility of a cat, and the strength of a superhuman. Managing to elude her mad-scientist pursuer, Lydecker (John_Savage), by living in a squalid inner-city slum, Max is lured out of hiding by fearless cyberjournalist Logan Cale (Michael_Weatherly), who convinces the heroine to join his fight against the oppressive post-apocalyptic status quo. Along the way, Max solicits the aid of her fellow lab subjects, some of whom have gone over to the other side. The supporting cast includes Alimi_Ballard as Herbal Thought, Jennifer_Blanc as Kendra, Richard_Gunn as Sketchy, J.C. MacKenzie as Normal, and Valarie_Rae_Miller as Original Cindy. The weekly, 60-minute Dark Angel ran from October 3, 2000 through May 3, 2002. Hal Erickson, Rovi
