If only this show were as cool as the box. Whoa, did it ever underwhelm. "Point Pleasant" seemed like a dynamite idea on paper, a hot chick washes up on the shore of a small town and spooky things happen. Turns out that the hot chick is actually Satan's daughter! And get this, her name is Christina! She's got Jesus' other name! With "Buffy" producer Marti Noxon behind the scenes, you'd expect it to rock, right?Wrong. You see, Satan's daughter is trying to fight the evil and be good. Whaaa? I'm not a huge fan of mustache-twirling villains in black but it really would have worked here. Imagine Christina as the anti-"Joan of Arcadia", just running around wreaking havoc in said small town. Instead we the get the cliche of the whoa-is-me-I-have-superpowers character. I get enough of that on "Smallville". To be fair, Christina probably succumbs to her dark side, the show just didn't stick around long enough for that to happen. All thirteen (unlucky) episdoes will be available on DVD around Halloween (zoinks).
