It's not awful, exactly, but it's so willfully bleak as to become monotonous.
-
Nothing could really prepare anyone for a show so wantonly grisly as this worthless, exploitative program.
-
This is entertainment? Awful.
-
The best worst series on TV. [30 Sep 2005, p.89]
-
There is a lot of "The Silence of the Lambs" in Fox's creepy new "Killer Instinct," but not enough to make it compelling rather than simply icky.
-
With its soundtrack full of metal and techno and its killers packing imported deadly spiders and home surgery kits, it aims for a Gothic moodiness not unrelated to the season's scary-monster shows.
-
A mess.
-
It's a show so determined to shock that it cares more about that than about such things as compelling lead characters, believable situations or inventively solved mysteries.
-
A sadistic series that, underneath its ghastly veneer, is just a dull, unoriginal crime drama.
-
You won't see any worse acting across the broadcast spectrum. The women-in-peril scenes are vile. The writing is atrocious. The series is horrifically bad. And not in a way that would make a good drinking game.
-
Pervasively disappointing.
-
The season's worst show.
-
Lifeless and uninspired.
