Nowhere near the abomination other reviewers suggest, mostly because of perceived "wokeness," but still only average at it's best.

Also, slight note: Kate Kane's Batwoman was always gay, Batgirl is the straight one.

It's actually doing a disservice to the LGBTI Community & Woman. Lastly, why didn't Ruby Rose muscle up or beef up for this role, the fight scene's looked ridiculous, perhaps her ego has learnt a valuable lesson that putting on a vogue pose isn't enough for an Action Lead Role, either that, or she should apply for different types of roles, this whole thing is just stupid & very disappointing from a women's perspective.

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

Nothing here is amazing, but it deserves to rise above the hate campaign being organized against it by people who can't stand to see a gay woman be in the superhero spotlight even in a small time CW show.

Instead of letting her prove herself, the CW series clings to mentions of Batman at every turn, making me ask myself "if Batman is so good, why didn't you make a TV show about him?"

Overall, it's hard to see what the show actually did right, because so far story, costume design and acting were extremely subpar, which seems characteristic of CW shows as of late.

Based on the previews and some of the lead's behavior (i.e. pulling out of Comic-con at the last possible moment), you kind of knew this show was going to be bad.
However, they still managed to surprise me with how bad it actually ended up being.
To put it bluntly, watching Batwoman is physically uncomfortable.

What specifically is wrong with it...
1st, the writing is horrible. The dialog is unnatural and cringe inducing.
2nd, Ruby Rose cannot act. Not sure how she even got any acting job when calling her performance wooden is being charitable. She also has failed to master an American accent, which leaves you feeling embarrassed for her.
3rd, an 80 pound woman who could be taken down by a strong gust of wind is simply not believable as a superhero. While I understand willing suspension of disbelief, when you go beyond implausible to full blown ridiculousness no one is going to be able to buy into what your selling, even if they want to.
4th, this show is preachy. Personally, I would not care that she is a woman, nor a lesbian if the show wasn't constantly reminding you of those two facts over and over and OVER again. They also put in a whole lot a man bashing, which gets old as soon as it starts. Pretty sure subtlety is something the makers of this show could not spell, let alone define or employ.
5th, this show takes itself way too seriously, leaving something dark, heavy, and unpalatable. The only hope this show had for success was to inject levity or even to have gone for full on camp, but they opted instead to take everything super seriously. Alas, that makes the whole thing laughable, but not particularly funny.
Lastly, there is absolutely nothing new or unique about this show. Batwoman has been billed as something almost revolutionary, but instead it is nothing more than a cut and paste of better stories that have already been told before. I'm kind of curious to see the ratings drop as this moves forward because I can't fathom why anyone would give this a second chance, let alone keep watching throughout what I'm fairly positive will be its first and, mercifully, last season.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There is an entire season worth in the first episode and it really shows. Packed with poor decisions, horrible writing and shots that are suppose to look cool is more sad then aything.
I was looking forward to this show but when batwoman got thrown out of the army because of "alleged homesexual conduct" and her girlfriend didn't... later she assaults the dude who's a security guard, the ONLY security guy who's tasked with making sure people dont find the batcave. He get assaulted and then he is her best friend, she just gets her suit, she just out of nowhere knows how to use all the gadgets and she beats the evil woman at the end of the episode that turns out to be her sister.
She beats grown ass men who are outnumbering her, while she is built like a twig and then she has a hard time beating up another twiggy woman at the end because we need a boss battle.
Holy **** delete it and start over guys please.
