Like most here, I didnt like the general overall approach. In the episodes I saw, they really didnt do much of anything either. Wasted opportunity overall."Crayons taste like purple!"Comment

I agree with most everything said. Dinah Myer was perfectly cast and damn is she hot....anyone remember the space bug movie? Can't think of the name right now.
Huntress was hot too but annoying and the kid was just plain boring and totally not needed. I lost interest after half dozen episodes or soComment

I liked it some, but they fell more than rose to the material. Dina perfect casting, then it fell.
BOP should have been Oracle and Canary with Huntress as a slightly lesser partner. basically it should have been more like the comic and less a dark anti smallville with actual super peolpe doing superheroic work. Having Huntress with NO MASK WAS STUPID! Having Dinah be a kid with esp STUPID! Killing Canary off STUPID!
I would have taken the same cast added 2 members and made it more like the comic at the time. Babs was fine, hire a good Canary, put huntress in a mask and make her origin like it is now, not pre-crisis. mob daughter turn vigilante, NO Bat connection. Keep the blonde girl and turn her into Spoiler who was being taught by babs. then hire an young asian actress to be Cassandra Cain the then Bargirl to be spoilers friend and partner for the younger set of heroines. Have it be just plain Gotham City and yes Batman and the rest are out there but just mentioned from time to time. show less licensed characters oin the monitors to represent the JLA , JSA and Titans oracle might be sending info too and that way you expand DC universe characters recognition in the general public who may tune in. I tell you that show would have lasted years, at least as long as smallville!"Hang on Lady...

It strayed from the source material, plain and simple. Comic movies/TV that dont stick at least reasonably close usually fail.Comment

where did it go right? this would be quicker to answer.
but what went wrong - some have said casting was good. ---NO. yes, they were pretty girls but they were flat-liners when it came to acting the role. the boyfriend . cop made me want to throw up
huntress is "half meta-human" (with no meta human parents nonetheless) what does that even mean? i mean that is like saying an x-man could be half mutant half mutant. - speaking of x-men - did they really need the meta human term at all? why not just plagiarize out in the open.
the stories ranged from bad to bearable.Comment

Strayed too far from the source material in so many ways.Comment

I really liked and enjoyed it. The main drag imo was black canary's daughter. Plus having batman as a deadbeat father didn't look good at all.sigpic

Huntress was the only muscle. Barb couldnt do much. Cnary was a reluctant newbie.
No I'm sorry.
It was the costumes. Superheroes is all about the costumes. That clip in the trailer with Batman and Batgirl was a better Batgirl than any other. A cool 1970s looking Batgirl fighting the Batvillians is great.
But you know they would never allow that.Comment

She did look spectacular.

I just bought this series on sale at Amazon, and I'm planning on rewatching it with fresh eyes. I'll probably regret it, but Meyer as Oracle is worth watching, and the few fleeting glimpses of her as Batgirl are icing on the cake.
