I thought the first Messiah was quite good. But since then it's been on a severely decreasing return. The last Messiah was crap except for the relationship between the characters of DCI Metcalf and his deaf wife, who's name I can't recall but was played by the extremely underused Michelle Forbes (wonderful as Miranda Zero in the Global Frequency pilot). Messiah 4 doesn't have that and is nothing more than brutality porn. It leaves far too little to the imagination and is precisely the kind of show that Alan Moore complained about, before and after writing From Hell. This is not art. This is not a masterwork. This is pornography. And not very good pornography at that.
