I was really looking forward to seeing this program when it first came out, if for no other reason than to see a female action hero in a genre which has so very few of them. The animation, by Warner Brothers, is as good as one would expect, and the voice acting is above average, but I really was disappointed by how the character of Jane was handled. First of all, she uses a bull-whip instead of a gun, apparently since American animators have a problem depicting female characters using deadly weapons. Never mind the fact that going into a gunfight armed with a whip would only get her killed. I mean, the real Jane used a Winchester. Also, the animators further dilute Jane's believability by making her just too strong. She should win fights (after all, she IS the heroine) but having her KOing baddies and sending them flying across a room with a single punch all the while without ever taking a punch herself is just too much of a stretch. But then again, animators in the US seem to have a hard time realistically depicting a female fighter who has neither magic nor superpowers to fall back upon. Depicting Jane as an almost-superhero tends to diminish the real legend.

After I watched the entire entire series. I wanted to see more of this character and I feel bad because there was a Kickstarter that was going to make more of her adventures, but I missed it by two years and I regret that because it feels like an adventure, like the Batman animated series, but with a wild Westen, and a female protagonist that I enjoy. If they ever want to do revival for everything, they need a revive to shove because I would love to see more of her adventures. The OG voice actor for calamity Jane is on board with it and with an interesting plot that they were thinking of for the comic of her being in modern times I would like to see how that would happen in a show cartoon or in the comic like they were going to do. If only if only.
