    I don't like much of the writing, some acting feels off for me, and I just am not engaged with Kate Kane and what she's doing. Once season 2 is over I will review it once I am done watching it, because so far I prefer the second season.

    I'm dumbfounded as to how this show and The Flash can exist in the same universe. Even if this wasn't a comicbook show it has the worst writing and plots I've ever seen in a TV show that lasted more than 6 episodes.

    It's bad. Nothing original and somewhat boring. Could easily be at least average, but it's not.

    God awful. Poor Ruby Rose, her talent could have been put to such better use.

    Instead of the show relying on a capable hero standing her own ground, it constantly has to throw in weak and completely unnecessary "stings" that are absolute, without doubt or remorse openly sexist to a degree near racism, and pit man vs woman instead of hero vs villain, and force a woman to clearly adopt

It destroys the characters individuality and stuffs frivolous attempts for the writers to "show their wokeness" in search for Twitter high-fives, and it ruins the whole show. They should take note from Catwoman in Dark Knight Rises. She is all female, and all powerful. A great character.

    The writing in this show is so completely transparent in its pathetic attempt to rally current social radicalized niches against one-another instead of just being a great, well written show with a great lead and some great support cast too.

    Huge disappointment, and I blame almost all issues on the pathetic writing team. Someone please fire them all and ban them from ever writing again. I heard McDonalds is hiring?

    Batwoman, the actor, is cast well. The rest are not. The plot is incredibly predictable. There are inconsistencies and actions by characters which are nonsensical. A cookie cutter superhero show which will only be enjoyably to those too young or too recluse to have seen any other superhero show. Too bad.

    Really bad acting and writing. I'm not sure how shows this bad are given the greenlight by any network even if it is on the cw.

    After watching 2 episodes... I was done. Not good acting, poor writing... I just don't have time to watch until it might get better situation. There is too many other good things to watch... so if I hear it got better, maybe later?

    Holy moly this wasn't worse than the trailer... but it was close.
    Please someone drop some money for acting lessons, this level of "quality" can't be intentional. Maybe its the writing, I mean these actors can't all be that bad.

    But hey it's woke, that's enough to get the zealots to watch these days. So enjoy, I guess.

Critics are nothing but bloggers that have no real education nor experience to critique the art, production value or cinematic quality of a release. Whatever score that is derived is meaningless to the demographic that the creation is trying to target. The Audience is the true critic, and what the response here tells me is that the viewer is tired of characters being used to carry out a sexual role agenda. The Audience does not care about the sexual preference of a Superhero and is focused on the comic book style action and storylines that are synonymous with being a Superhero character. As long as garbage like this BATWOMAN continued to get released, the Audience will continue to voice extreme displeasure and realize that the Critics are also part of the problem. Do not waste your valuable time with this BATWOMAN tripe, nor with the spew these Critics spread. Expand

    So far this show is terrible. Cares more about showing how “woke” they are than actually telling a good story. I want to like this since I live the super hero shows on the cw but it’s just so bad.

    Batwoman is truly awful. It is by far the CW's worst superhero show. Practically every element of the how, from the acting to the set deign to the dialogue, it truly some of the worst I've ever seen. Worst superhero show since Inumans.

    I went in with a neutral stance.
    So far, I love the arrowverse, flash, supergirl is okay, but I assumed the trend would be: good, good, decent, good.
    But I was wrong. If batwoman was a man, people could call it "a fantasy for toxic masculinity", and that's what this is. Toxic femininity. Identity politics so over the top, that it just turns me away. I don't care about it, you can

    Toxic femininity.
    Identity politics so over the top, that it just turns me away.

    I don't care about it, you can have your stupid politics as long as you keep it on a very low pitch.

    Critics only liking it because it's political.
    If this was pro-Trump or whatever this stuff is supposed to be, the critics would give it a 1.

    The fact that critics rate this higher than the Joker just shows this show is a dog whistle to the extremists.

    Stop your politics, because it's not profitable.
    How many comics following this nonsense political stuff have gone away? Right, all of them.

    Gender identity nonsense mumbo jumbo doesn't sell.
    Bad acting and cringe don't sell either.
    This show shouldn't make it to season 3 if they continue this nonsense.

    What an abomination. Mary Sue meets Feminazi. Why do they think this is what people want? Oh, wait, they don't. This is just racists and sexists in positions of power using their position to preacher hate against a group of people they dislike, while managing to fail to deliver even a moderate amount of actual entertainment.

    Everyone involved, of course, might fare better if they had a decent script, proper lighting, well-choreographed fight scenes and sets that didn’t look as if they had been nailed together from whatever was left after Michael Keaton left the building in 1989. ... For now, though, pure and perfect trash is what we need – and Batwoman provides.
  2. The show doesn’t seem to know how to handle Bruce’s absence, so he’s mentioned at every turn, making Kate feel less like a person with her own story than someone grafted onto his. ... The visual palette is all muddled grays or treacly, warmly lit flashbacks. The fight scenes lack tension and dynamism, relying on quick cuts and multiple angles to manufacture a false sense of energy. There’s also a missing spark of chemistry among the cast.

    Batwoman has a welcome amount of openness and information sharing from the get-go. The series also does surprisingly well with establishing several key supporting characters. ... Around Kate Kane and Rose, there's a question mark. The camera is intrigued, gravitating toward her angular features, spiky hair and convincing swagger. I'm not sure she's as good at conveying the required authority or enigmatic mystery.
