Batman trained for years both physically and mentally to become who he is. I take issue with the idea that you can find a Bat suit in the trash can, or in an airplane wreck or whatever, put it on, and then not immediately get shot to death the first moment you try and fight a baddy. Batman is a literal ninja, in peak physical condition, and the world's greatest detective.

I didn’t watch this show, but this video left me with one question: “what training does Ryan have?” After some research on her Wikipedia page, I found that, Compared to Bruce and Kate, Ryan has little to no training. Bruce traveled the world for years and sharpened his skills with the greatest teachers in the world. Kate joined a military school and also traveled the world to hone her skills. All Ryan did was serve some time in prison and take some martial arts classes at her local YMCA. That is such an insult to the Batman name. This show should have ended more like Dave’s first attempt at being Kick-ass.

[@CameronMetrejean]

Agreed, there’s one line from her parole officer saying “All those years teaching martial arts” and that’s it. We don’t even know what kind of martial arts. I keep waiting for her to talk about being a foster kid made her want to be able to protect herself so she got lessons starting at a young age, just SOMETHING to make her abilities even a fraction close the others. But nope

[@Aspect_of_the_idiot]

Just you wait they also make her fucking smart or smarter than Batman. Also Batman isn't just his fighting skills and gadgets but also his smarts i mean if i recall in the comics he defeated the justice league using his wit and studying them in case the worse could happen the guy plans everything

There are many great tv shows and movie out there that are rated horribly by critics while a lotta bad movies and tv show rated well. In the end of the day....judging a tv show or movie is a lot more complex than a simple good or bad. Unless of its clearly apparent that the show has weak writing, plot, character etc etc which by no means is indicated in batman at least in season 2. I watched a ton of tv shows in my life to judge whether someone is genuinely good or bad....so I am not just saying stuff.

[@tonycleek4981]

The show cares more about social agenda than telling a good story. You were correct that Arrow did more of moving the conversation by showing both sides had some legitimate points but left the actual decision for the audience to talk about. Batwoman just wants to preach at you and tell you how to live your life.

[@GIGio_Official]

Thats is why Arrow > Batwoman

[@tonycleek4981]

@@GIGio_Official The sad thing is that I liked the premise of Batwoman. What happen to Batman and why did he left? Where did all his villains went? I thought they could kinda do a post Watchman world like the movie. For the first thing, Gotham seems like it is ok without Batman. It was almost that Batman clean up Gotham of the real bad criminals and just moved on. The other problem was to make Kate or Ryan look better because of their poor decisions they had to crap on Bruce/Batman. The second issue is with Alice. She was never a consistent villain with only motivation to go for revenge. Most villains can have a revenge story but they are more calculating on building an empire. By trying to make Alice more sympathetic, they nerfed her as a threat. It is like watching Pinky and the Brain where you know that Brain is mostly harmless and the threat is low. The other villains are too stereotypical evil or misunderstood minority that has been oppressed. There is no actually time that Kate or Ryan are really wrong or held to task for their poor views or decision making. In roundabout way, they make the right choices and the show will bend over backwards to show that. The disdain that Kate and Ryan have for the people who don’t support them is more hatred instead of understanding where they come from. I don’t believe this show has had one straight white guy be right or be seen as just average person trying to get by.

I mean good for them for remaining non-partisan, that shocked me as usually they shove some stupid agenda down our throats, but even so the debate was so silly that I would have rather they just not covered it at all as it kind of did a disservice to both sides of the gun debate dumbing it down when there's legitimate fact based reasons to be on either side of the argument.

Nobody questions Tommy's disguise, except the person with expert secret agent training? And why did she then wait to tell everybody who Tommy might have visited? What is the point of Alice?

It’s like Cassandra Cain and Stephanie Brown being Batgirl. Yes, Barbra Gordon was the OG Batgirl but Steph and Cass are also good as Batgirl. My point is, Ryan may be Batwoman but she’s not ‘replacing’ Kate, she’s taking up the Mantle from Kate. Just like Duck Grayson will one day, and has on multiple occasions, taking up the Mantle of Batman. So it’s ok to pass that torch to someone else. In this universe, Batman is GONE! Nightwing DOESNT EXIST! The only hope the people of Gotham have IS Batwoman! Like Batman, she is a symbol. People need a symbol to rally behind. It doesn’t matter who’s behind the cowl.

The CW was good when it was it had Smallville and Everwood, it has a mix of everything for everyone, but only having superheroes shows is not good. When you using the same producers from one show for another you tend to use the same writers and I think they have run out of ideas or since their mergers they have fired all the writers from smallville and Everwood and hired those who used to work at UPN. The Flash starter out great but then after season 3 is seems that they switch writing team. Supergirl went to a similar process when it switched from CBS to CW. Superheroes show need at least a budget of 7-8 million per episode to work dueing important episodes maybe go as high as 10 million. If you are spending 1.5 to 3 million then you will get garbage. I wonder how much the writers of BW are getting paid?

Her standard off duty vehicle would be very girly, nothing wrong with a heroine being woman and proud. She would also be a young and a fashionista, so we would attract a younger audience. Good stories, that follow well defined story arches, people want to follow. Great cinematography, set design and dialogue with cultural specific catch phrases. People will remember and copy in their daily conversations. Each episode a romping good time.

[@Exacerbate42]

When it comes to logic, the Batwoman series is sure to be miles better than the Flash series! The first season was really exhausting and um ... long. Still, I enjoyed seeing her. I went through Season 2 in one go, and I thought it was fantastic! It seems a bit as if it is only because of the suit that she is Batwoman, and somehow it is the same here because it is a bulletproof high-tech suit, but the change was well represented, even if it was is not comic-compliant. But what is also well portrayed is that she actually can't fight as well as the previous Batwoman. On the other hand, she's not bad without a Batwoman suit either. If you also consider how many Batwoman and Batgirl-like heroines there are in DC Comics ... I hope there will be a third season. Sorry for my bad English. I just chased it through the Google Translator.

[@annapurnasaha5844]

I think batwoman had a preety good overview of story but bad excution dumb dialogue and constant disturbing acting of batwoman herself is worse than anything...the redeem session of alice is so deep that i forgot it was the same ruthless killer of season 1.

[@GIGio_Official]

I think the idea of a new Batwoman could have worked, but my God the writing was just awful. But yeah it was definitely poorly executed.

[@Xehanort10]

The supposed "redemption" of Alice is not deep. "She was abused and hypnotised and that made her kill people" is just a lazy way to get the audience to feel sorry for her.

[@joeyellis850]

What blows me away is the part where if Ryan was white and acted like she does to black people, the SJW's would be losing their minds!!! She is one of the racist characters I've ever seen!!! The surprising part is she is supposed to be the hero. Not the villain!

[@redwardranger7034]

[@jaypaul15]

It's the Hollywood what do you expect? They are too busy checking boxes. Gay couple in the movie/show is a must nowadays. Diverse cast is a must too. Not respecting the source material at all. I don't mind when people don't follow the Source Material. I personally believe that Zack Snyder did an incredible job with the DCEU and people mostly hate his movies because they are different from the greater and funnier MCU and because he does things different from the comics. But what I do hate is when people completely disrespect the source materials. Remember when casting actors who look like the characters they were supposed to play was a thing? I remember them casting RDJ as IronMan or Affleck as Batman. Benedict as Doctor Strange or Cavill as Superman. They are too busy checking boxes now. Superman is now black. I personally liked TFATWS, the plot made no sense, there was a lot of plot holes but I still would give the show a solid 6.5/10.. What I did hate about the show was how they shoved down that "Black Captain America" word down us audience's throat throughout the show. Hollywood is trying too hard. I would not be surprised if they announce an Asian Bruce Wayne. Critics are going to love these movies, let me tell you that. Because they will be too busy checking boxes for diversity, women and queer representation that they will completely forget about what a good plot and good storytelling means. The upcoming James Bond movie looks terrible, I don't understand why they even cast non talented actors? The Cinema started dying the day sequel trilogy of the great Star Wars was released. MCU is dying with their woke crap. DC is already dead with the way they are moving forward. As far as Middle Earth goes, they are ruining it with the amazon's series. Resident Evil live action franchise is fucked already. The casting for the new show is terrible. Casting a Black actor to play an iconic white character. The rest of the cast is filled with 110 pound girls who look like they will get scared by a cockroach, there is no intimacy in them. I'm done with the current gen cinema. Imma go and watch the OG movies instead of these woke garbage we are going to get in the near future. I honestly miss the days when acting skills was the first priority not female representation or diverse characters.

[@BrysonRyenn]

Lmaoo Falcon becomes Captain America in the comics buddy. They are following source material for that. As far as the other things, I don’t agree with people not following source material either but certain things are following the source material... just because you don’t like black captain America shows your prejudice because Marvel made Falcon Captain America in the comics so that’s what they are doing now... I don’t see the issues with that.

Surely the only reason to bring Kate back is because Ryan isn't going to make? Giving a reason for Kate to come back as Batwoman after some long escape sequence? Is this all just to have a Kate VS Ryan fight in a season three that will hopefully never happen?

[@danielbrito1678]

The writing on this show is like what my brain farts out when I’m the middle of “writer’s block”. Either the writer has constant writer’s block or they’re just a terrible writer. At first I thought Batwoman Season 2 was and would be better than Season 1, with its new lead it had the chance of starting over and realizing it’s flaws of the first season. But once the show decided to rush into tackling systemic racism I decided to quit. All the ideas presented in that storyline feel so forced and so contrived that it’s almost embarrassing and kinda laughable that the show thinks it’s bold enough to tell that kind of topic. Especially when it’s a sole white woman telling a black story with black characters with no input or involvement from or with other black writers.

[@GIGio_Official]

Idc who is writing this show they need to be fired immediately

[@reecedignan8365]

The only way I actually consume Batwoman is through JayLongbone and EFAP. And no, don’t you dare complain that there’s more episodes and season, for if they stop so does EFAP Batwoman and we must see our heroic fumboids and tisms survive the show - it’s like it’s own character story but through people watching a terrible tv show

[@kristianfjelde7897]

Alice's actress is the best on the show. Even though she has horrific dialogue and actions Rachel somehow makes it look OK. She should definitely get more credit

[@Xehanort10]

Even with the forced attempts to try to make Alice sympathetic she's still more likeable than Ryan. And if a murderous psycho comes off as a better person than the supposed "hero" you know they're bad writers.

[@andreasottohansen7338]

I am still shocked and amazed that they created an Alice in Wonderland themed villain for the show When Jevis Tetch exists. Aka, The Mad Hatter. That would one thing, if he was just an obscure golden age villain, but considering the new leash he got with the Batman Arkham games (which aren't exactly outside the mainstream), it is all the more shocking.

First of all, I love how you're different from other people who just criticize the show with no arguments. You searched and watched, and pointed every single problem from it, which is awesome. I totally agree with you when you say that the writers don't treat them as characters, and yet as tools. They're wasting such an interesting history with and damn ass opportunity to use some of the bat family members.

[@boomer2095]

Sooooo many great comments about what is bad about this show. I honestly only watched the first episode and never watched it again. But listening to you explain the story I would think somebody was making up such a bad story if I didn’t know it was all true. The problem is they have a gay heroine and now a black heroine, CW thinks that LBGTQ and now black audiences will tune in just because of the heroine without bothering to have a compelling story or character arch.

[@squibydoesalittletrolling]

i dont have much of a say in this because i stopped watching the arrowverse years ago, but another problem is that this show specifically was only meant to be for twitter puritans that dont watch them at all, and not to the comic book nerds that do. its like like marketing a dalmation to cruella devil.

[@erickwebster1973]

I miss Ruby Rose as Batwoman and I really enjoyed season 1 a lot better, season 2 isn't too bad the actress playing as I like to call her Blackwoman has proved herself to be worthy of me accepting her as the new Batwoman

21:38 I strongly disagree with that 1) gun control in a superhero show is a tad silly considering they go around beating people up and maybe even killing people whenever they want 2) I think you should 100% take a side. Showing both sides of an issue and not taking a side is toothless. It can also end up in the message being muddled. I really don't like "We have to show both sides in order to not offend". Sometimes people are just wrong. *Writer:* I wanna do a plot about the importance of wearing seatbelts *Idiots:* You had better take a jab at those stuck-up seatbelt wearers. Yes, I am pro gun by the way.

What annoys me about Batwoman, is that it ‘Conceptually has potential’. Remember Batwoman New52? Also, it has a great group of Characters, Kate Kane, Luke Fox, a version of Duela Dent (Someone who we see too little of), Stephanie Brown (my favourite sidekick) and even Scarecrow! Such wasted potential! Jesus christ, just take inspiration from the comics! Give us a version of No Man’s Land gang war and territory conflicts! Imagine if Batwoman came to Gotham in it’s greatest time of need! Getting thrown into the deep-end against Batman’s greatest foes! All of which have no expectations of her! Also, for the love of God, make her use a gun! That’s Batwoman’s thing! How funny would it be if Scarecrow shows up and gives a big rant about how he’s going to take over Gotham and rule with fear, after being bullied for years. Then he gets shot in the knee. “You shot me! You crazy bitch!” “Says the Guy in the stupid mask.” “Batman would never shoot me!” “I’m not Batman.” There, done.
