Batwoman pilot

It's pretentious, which is the opposite of Arrow and Flash.

And to make matters worse, Ruby is the next Leah Dunham/Rose McGowan whose going to unravel before our eyes. It already started when she decided to share her back surgery on instagram. A Batwoman stunt goes bad, and someone convinced her it was best to double down and make things worse for life with a procedure which is known to not work long-term and will require more surgeries in years ahead. You can tell their are people working for her that are afraid she's going to stop being a hot property really soon.

Whoops, I missed it. I liked her well enough on the crossover last year, but the non-subtle preachiness of Supergirl is what ultimately led me to leave that show, even though I do agree with most of its politics. I would guess Batwoman's are somewhat built-in, and honestly expected, so I wouldn't mind it as much here.

I'm not really familiar with the actress outside of this show, so I can't really say how I feel about her. I'm a bit confused about what Earth which show is now on. Maybe after Crisis, it won't matter?

Ok, so I give it a whirl, I'm totally burned out on CW shows but I have to check out the pilot to a new CW show.

It's pretty atypical of the other shows, a bit over the top, plenty of additional characters to slow the action down but my main issue with it personally? The lead.

I admit I've never been a big fan of Rose, didn't like her on "Orange" or John Wick, I find her somewhat wooden. I didn't mind her Batwoman on the crossover though.

The other issue I have is her as an action star, she's kind of a twig and while the Batsuit improves that matter, I found myself kind of not buying her fight scenes. I've never felt that way about Sara Lance (easily my favourite CW character) because she seems to own the action scenes.

I have no idea if the show is accurate to the comic but if they add the "Question" I'd likely check that out.

Anyway, it's probably not going to get me back to the CW anytime soon, although that was a really impossible task to begin with, I never really read this character and i'm way too spoiled by "Doom Patrol".
