I watched Birds instead of watching the new TZ, and I must say I think Birds has a long life ahead. In my opinion, I don't think the show will be a one year wonder. It was a great pilot. Usually pilots kind of suck, but this one was pretty good.

Did you guys like it?

It wasn't that bad, It was like a different prespective on "Batman", and definetly has some points of interest, and I can also see this show having a long life, I'm sure there are many fans that are interested to see this show, and what its like for a new generation of "Batman".

I liked it. I was surprised... it was actually good. :)


Good job WB!

The only thing that bugs me is the actress who plays Barbara. She looks weird in that Batgirl outfit. I didn't much care for it. I hate that Catwoman really is dead and Batman just dumped his child with Barbara. He's supposed to be a hero.

Yeah, I agree on the Catwoman/Batman parts. Just think of the storyline possibilities if Batman were to return in a season or two. Wow. And who says Catwoman is REALLY dead, after all, a cat has nine lives... So many possibilites...

And I honestly liked it more than I thought I would. From what I've heard, the original, now unaired Pilot, was darker (meaning, just an overall dark show). I'm glad they changed some things. Helena's (Huntress) costume is supposed to somewhat change in episode 2... strange, LOL.

When did The Joker find out about Batgirls identity?

I believe he must've followed her home. That's the only answer. They never explained it if he did find out. Or, maybe it was just an error on the writers part; but he most likely followed her home that night (off-screen, that is).

I just wondered because in the flash backs she just got out of the shower to answer the door and there was Joker with a gun.

Birds of Prey is on the road to being canceled. I read on a Birds website that the show is losing ratings and if it continues WB will cancel it.

Also Rebecca from Full House plays Black Canery in this weeks episode. She is Catwomans enemy and came to kill Helena/Huntress. When she learns the daughter she gave up is there helping fight crime she orders Dinah to leave with her. All and all it sounds great. And has anyone noticed, if you are recording this show, how short it is? The episodes are 37 to 39 minutes long. I wonder why The WB is doing that.

That's kind of sad if it's on the road to cancellation. Well, if they do cancel it I hope they at least play the 22 episodes from season 1. They did give it a chance or they would've canceled it after 2 episodes. I have a feeling they might have an ace up their sleeve to pull in ratings. They might bring Batman/Bruce Wayne into it. Bruce wants to get into Helena's life, but Helena is gonna put up that fence since Bruce left her.

I never really noticed the time limit. I tape the whole thing, including commericials. The only time I cut commericials is if I only have a little bit of tape left.

I love "Birds". It's an awesome show.

The main thing I like most about it is Dina Meyer (Barbara Gordon/Oracle). Her acting skills are amazing...she IS the Orcale. And Ashsley Scott makes a GREAT Huntress.

If the show gets cancelled so soon that'll be too bad, because although it has some weak points (that kid Dinah, for one and the "everyone's a metahuman" thing) all shows need a while before they get good. If the network gave it a real chance and let it run for a whole season it would probably improve greatly.

Welcome to the Batman board Angel Wings. :)

Have you all noticed that most of the criminals die or totally disappear at the end of the episodes? If they keep killing the crooks they'll run out of crook ideas pretty fast. That's what I liked about the Batman original series. None of the crooks died. The only one that died was Molly. If Batman did that originally (killing crooks off after one guest shot), it prob. wouldn't last for a season and a half. Look at how many guest shows the main 4 crooks did. What if they all died after being on the show once?

Hi, Jenny. Yeah I've noticed.

Personally I think they should bring in some villains from the comics, like Scarecrow, Riddler, and Two Face. That would be neat.

I would love to see Poison Ivy, Joker, and Catwoman on the show. That would be neat if Catwoman was alive and came back evil. Huntress would have to fight her own mother. They could do all kinds of ideas to help save the show but they wont. :(

This show can really be something and they should do it while they are still on air! They could bring Bruce back with Selena!! That could be why Batman left he knew Selena/Catwoman was alive and was helping her get better. Then Helena wouldn't be so pissed off at her father.

Congrats on the 1500 posts.

They could do that. They could bring Bruce and Selena into the show. I know they prob. just want it to be a whole new Batman project, and you don't have to have Batman in every episode. They could just have Batman related plots every once in awhile.

Well the ratings are down again. Here are the ratings from Birds of Preys offical website:


Birds of Prey : Sweeps - Week Two
-- Friday November 15th, 2002

Did you watch Birds of Prey last night? Fast national overnight data from last night is available and the ratings show that the numbers have hit a series low. The all-new episode, 'Primal Scream', brought in a 3.8/5, down considerably from last week's 4.1/6, which skated by as a success. Continually dropping ratings may lead to the cancellation of the series, if the numbers don't climb.

Thanks for posting that Silver Daze. From the look of it, it doesn't look like it will be picked up for a season 2. They might make one last chance to save it. You know the lead in show is Dawson's Creek. DC isn't as popular now as it was before, so if they move BOP to another night- it might help a bit....

I was thinking they could move it to Sundays at either 8 or 9 because then the lead in show would be Charmed or Angel. Those shows are popular and get good ratings. If I get any more news about BOP I will post it here. :wave:

That would be a perfect timeslot for BOP. Thanks for keeping us updated SD. :)

The WB will begin re running the episodes starting December 4th with Slick.

Next week on Birds of Prey:

Split Nov-20-2002
Already frustrated with men thanks to her relationship with Det. Reese, Helena is none too pleased when a metahuman calling himself Darkstrike visits New Gotham to team up with her and Barbara. However, Helena warms to the enigmatic stranger when he explains his history with the Crawler---a nefarious criminal with the nasty habit of murdering his abductees. When the fiend kidnaps an innocent teen, the crimefighters must race against the clock to ensure that the latest victim doesn't meet the fate of her predecessors.

I have every episode the WB aired of BOP on tape. I really got into it. Here is a petition online to try to save BOP. I have already sign, but I don't know if they work or not. Just thought I pass it along.

In some cases they do. I'm not sure if you ever watched the tv show 'The Magnificent Seven'. It came on in 1998, I believe. They were gonna cancel that, but somebody started passing around petitions to keep it on the air. It did work somewhat. They kept it around for awhile longer, but it didn't last too much longer. If we get enough sigs on the petition to just give it another chance to bring in more viewers, we might succeed in keeping it on the air longer.

I want everybody to take a long look at another show, "The Facts of Life". It got off to a very rocky 1st season. They didn't scrap it immediately. They picked it up for a 2nd season, but luckily the writers knew they had to do something to get the viewers to tune in. If the writers of BOP want this show to scrape by, they better bring in some very powerful storylines.

I wonder if that would be on their website? I'll try to find the article and post it here. It's kind of sad if they do cancel it without giving it another chance. Look at all the shows that had a rocky first season, but really started hitting them out of the park when they were on solid landing. I just looked on the News website and didn't see anything there. It must've been a short article.

I hope they do have sense and keep it on for awhile longer.

Here is an article at BOP online. Looks like it will be cancelled. :( They never even gave the show a chance.

Is the End in Sight for Birds of Prey?
-- Monday November 18th, 2002

WB suits were mulling over the weekend how to pluck "Birds of Prey" off their schedule, after just six broadcasts.

The drama series about Batgirl, Catgirl and Blondegirl, which is based very loosely on the DC Comics, debuted on Oct. 8 with 7.5 million viewers. But WB didn't care about that. It cared that 13 percent of all the 12-to-34-year-olds who had their TVs turned on at 9 p.m. that Wednesday were watching the "Prey" chicks.

By its most recent broadcast, on Nov. 13, "Birds of Prey" had fallen to 4 million viewers and only 6 percent of the TV-viewing 12-to-34-year olds tuned in.

A WB spokesman said late last week that the network had nothing to announce with regard to the show's fate.

I still don't understand it. No offense to Dawson's Creek fans, but that show ran for 5 seasons (I think) and it isn't that great. Here we have a great show and it's prob. going into the can with 6 episodes.

I only watch the WB for BOP. I don't even care about the other shows it runs. Whoa, I just had a thought. Just had a thought. This could be another surprise if this happens. What if WB cancels it, but a station like Scifi picks it up and makes new episodes? If WB does cancel it, we need to get together and email Scifi.

Look at the ratings BOP got. It got better ratings than their popular shows like Angel, DC, and Sabrina. The WB should re think their decision imo. BOP is just starting out, all shows suck in the beginning. Buffy did, Angel did, Sabrina, Facts of Life, Friends, ect. I hate it when networks bring on shows that people like and then cancel them. It is totally mean and unfair.


87. "Birds of Prey," WB, 3.0

89. "Dawson's Creek," WB, 2.9

99. "Angel," WB, 2.4

100. "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch," WB, 2.2

It's silly I tell ya. The thing is if I was responsible for WB's programming, I'd be happy at pulling in that many ratings. Who cares if the viewer is in that 13 year old bracket? The viewer could be 100 for all I care. As long as they are getting people to tune in, that's really all that matters.

Also, it's best to stay with the fresh stuff. DC is leaving this year I think and Sabrina might have started off fresh, but they are really dragging it out. That's not the way to go either. When a show has been on for a certain amount of years and you can see it aging before your very eyes, it's time to pull the plug and let the newbies take their position.

THAT STUPID GOOD FOR NOTHING NETWORK CAN GO TO HELL!! :mad: :mad: That is the second good show The WB has canceled that I really like. I don't know why people bother to watch that network it stinks.


Birds of Prey online reported this:


Birds of Prey - Cancelled
-- Tuesday November 19th, 2002

Many reliable news sources across the internet have confirmed that the WB's new show "Birds of Prey" will have no more episodes ordered past the original 13. This is obviously a great shame and waste of what potentially could have been a big hit show. We will be sad to see such potential wasted and wish the cast and crew good luck in their future projects.

Behind the Scenes Shuffle at Birds of Prey
-- Tuesday November 19th, 2002

Sources said the WB pulled the plug on the femme Batman spinoff drama "Birds of Prey," which popped a big number in its premiere but fell off quickly in subsequent weeks. There was also a behind-the-scenes shuffle among the creative team on the Tollin/Robbins-Warner Bros. Television drama. It's unclear when production will stop on the initial 13-episode "Birds of Prey" order. New episodes of the show will run on the WB through next month.

I really can't believe the WB is going to cancel it; it's a great show. I felt it would've been better paired with Smallville, or on another night. They should defnitely give it more of a chance. If it's still going to air for several more episodes, maybe if ratings improve, they'll reconsider. HA! Yeah, right. Networks rarely ever reconsider.

Let's look at what could happen:
1. The petition. Off to a HUGE start. Could work to keep BOP for at least a full season.
2. Sci-Fi could pick it up and make new episodes; maybe with the petition it could work; other than that, I can't see this happening.
3. UPN. I don't even watch UPN, but would if they pick up BOP like they did Roswell last year. I have a feeling UPN may be the place we should focus on.

But if you remember UPN canceled Roswell and even took the show off for months after they got it. Ratings were bad. I don't think UPN would consider it, but we can try. This show can turn into something big imo. WB should have given it a chance.

This is such bs! Did you see Pav's post over on the Drama board? Look at what they might be putting in BOP's place. I sometimes wonder if these programmers have ____ for brains.

They have something in their heads that isn't brains. I can't believe they picked up FOXs left overs, that is just ********! I am so glad I recorded BOP while it was on the air.


On another note, have you been to The WB message board? Apparently fans are still saying it isn't canceled that its still on. That all we are reading are what other sources say not what The WB is saying. But it is canceled and the WB still sucks.

Did anyone else like Mia Sara? She was GREAT as Harley. I'm going to miss seeing her in BOP. :( Helena and Harley will never know about eachother. Dumb WB! :mad:

I heard somewhere that the WB wasn't happy with the production costs for BOP. So not only does the WB have bad taste, they're also cheap!

BOP does look like quite an expensive show to do. It looks like history repeating itself. Batman's 3rd season had the same problem with production costs. What do they want the cast to do? I guess when you think about it, they want to put card board boxes up as buildings and call that New Gotham. Oh boy, that would cut the costs.

I read about that. I hope The WB comes up with a better excuse than that for canceling BOP. And I know it isn't about ratings because it did great next to Angel and Dawsons Creek not to mention the new comedies the WB picked up.

More news about Birds of Prey:


'Birds of Prey' May Get Clipped
Wed, Nov 20, 2002 11:48 AM PDT


LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - The female superheroes of "Birds of Prey" might not have much more time to catch New Gotham's bad guys.

While The WB tells Zap2it that no decision on the show's future has been made yet, other reports indicate the series may not make it past its initial order of 13 episodes. Both Hollywood trade papers reported this week that "Birds" was on the verge of cancellation.

The series has become a casualty in the battle for young viewers at 9 p.m. Wednesdays. Several networks decided to counterprogram against NBC's perennial time-slot winner "The West Wing" this season, resulting in a glut of shows aimed at young adults.

"The Bachelor" has by far been the most successful of those shows, giving ABC an overall boost and even occasionally beating "The West Wing" in total viewers. That's left FOX's "Fastlane," CBS' "Amazing Race" and "Birds of Prey" to fight for the remaining audience.

After drawing 7.5 million viewers for its premiere, "Birds" has declined significantly in the ratings since then. Last week's show drew only about 4 million viewers; it's averaging about 5 million a week for the season.

Oh dear God, The Bachelor is beating them all.

I loved tonights episode and next weeks episode looks awesome too. I hope those idiots at the WB are satisfied.

I've got a question about the episodes. I go to this site called www.epguides.com and I looked up Birds of Prey and they have next weeks episode listed and has the episode description, but then they have the names of 2 more episodes. I'm not sure if that's what they were gonna call the episodes, but they didn't get to film them or if they did film them and WB isn't going to show them. It has Dec. 11th by episode 9, but they'll be showing reruns by that point. That makes no sense to me. Why not show all the new episodes together and then show the reruns?


http://www.tvtome.com/BirdsofPrey/season1.html#ep9

The WB is supposed to air the remaining episodes of BOP. They supposedly filmed 13 episodes all together and the WB aired what, 7 episodes so far? that means WB is going to air 6 more new episodes then pull it off the air. But if ratings were bad tonight then WB might just pull it off the air all together and not air no more episodes. Most networks do that, and pisses the crap of fans real bad. :)


I hope this helped :wave:

The pilot re airs next week before the new episode of BOP. Just in case anyone missed it you can watch it next week.

Oh, okay. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I hope they show all the episodes. It would be a waste of money if they filmed it and they don't even bother showing them.

Ratings from last night:

Birds of Prey : Sweeps - Week Three
-- Thursday November 21st, 2002

The ratings have hit an even lower point this week, however the show was up against REALLY tough competition with The Bachelor's season finale and Victoria's Secret. The all-new episode, "Split", brought in a 3.4/5, down considerably from last week's 3.8/5, which in itself was very poor. The show has said to have been cancelled, could these poor ratings be the final nail in the coffin? We urge The WB to hold out and see how next week does before making any announcements as "Lady Shiva" could be a winner!

I can't believe it. The show did horrible last night. I don't think next weeks episode will make a difference.

That may be the Ace card. I have my suspicions what this episode will be about if you go a few posts back, you'll see my guess. I'm not sure I'm right, but it might be the Ace card.

TV Guide Covers Pulled

Comics Continuum has reported that a TV Guide representative has said that the planned 4 cover edition of TV Guide has now been cancelled due to the shows own cancellation. Obviously this is a great shame and only goes to confirming the fate of the show, The WB should make an official announcement very soon.


Los Angeles Convention Appearance Cancelled
-- Friday November 22nd, 2002

The website for this weekends Los Angeles Comic Book convention, held on Sunday 24th November, have posted that Ashley and Ian will now not be appearing due to the shows cancellation. Those of you who were going just to see them may now reconsider, they will however be handing out 500 large Birds of Prey posters that were sent to them.


Dina on Morning Show Today
-- Friday November 22nd, 2002

Dina Meyer informed viewers of the Howard Stern Morning Show that the show is not yet cancelled and that only 13 episodes have been ordered so far. Perhaps if the shows ratings boost next week we may have some chance of getting a full season ordered? Dina is still filming episodes so production on the series hasn't halted.



Well Dina seems to have hope for the show so that might be good. I just hope WB airs all the episodes before pulling it off air.

Comics Continuum has reported that a TV Guide representative has said that the planned 4 cover edition of TV Guide has now been cancelled due to the shows own cancellation. Obviously this is a great shame and only goes to confirming the fate of the show, The WB should make an official announcement very soon.


Los Angeles Convention Appearance Cancelled
-- Friday November 22nd, 2002

The website for this weekends Los Angeles Comic Book convention, held on Sunday 24th November, have posted that Ashley and Ian will now not be appearing due to the shows cancellation. Those of you who were going just to see them may now reconsider, they will however be handing out 500 large Birds of Prey posters that were sent to them.


Dina on Morning Show Today
-- Friday November 22nd, 2002

Dina Meyer informed viewers of the Howard Stern Morning Show that the show is not yet cancelled and that only 13 episodes have been ordered so far. Perhaps if the shows ratings boost next week we may have some chance of getting a full season ordered? Dina is still filming episodes so production on the series hasn't halted.



Well Dina seems to have hope for the show so that might be good. I just hope WB airs all the episodes before pulling it off air.

That sucks so bad. Like you said, Dina seems to have hopes for the show. If they continued with the tv guide covers and the conventions they could've got people interested in the show. Most people prob. don't think such a good show comes on WB. I've never watched a show regularly on that station, so I could see why some people thinks all the shows on the channel sucks. If they continued to promote it, it could help to get a few more viewers in.

Thanks for keeping us updated Silver Daze.

From Gotham Clock Tower (http://www.gothamclocktower.com/) they list that WB is going to let them have a 2 part series finale. Which is weird because I don't think any network has done that with a new show that was just canceled. Oh well that may be why episode 11 is "Reunion" because the last 2 episodes are the last. We'll just have to wait and see what the WB has planned.

Well, I have to say this just incase it does get yanked off the schedule completely. This Reunion ep. sounds like a biggie and if done correctly, it might make a good final episode. Some shows get yanked even without a goodbye episode, BOP has had a short run but if it gets a goodbye episode then that will be okay. I'll still hate to see it leave, but you get that closing ep instead of just being left hanging.

Oh I read on Birds of Prey online that the Reunion episode is just about Harley reuniting with her High School friend.

This is where I got the information Birds of Prey Online (http://www.birdsofpreyonline.com/spoilers/)

Aw crap, disregard my Ace card theory. I thought for sure they'd have Batman coming back to Gotham and trying to fix things with Helena. Thanks for the info.

2 Hour Show Finale?
-- Monday November 25th, 2002

Gotham Clock Tower reports that the series is rumored to end with a feature length 2 hour episode. We will post more on this when it is confirmed although we assume this episode will consist of #12 & #13 being put together as two parts making up the final episode after "Reunion".

It appears BOP Online got a schedule for when the new episodes will air.

Well The WB isn't airing the last 2 episodes, that day. According to The WBs website they are going to start Angel that day after Dawson's Creek. As soon as I find out if they are going to air the last 2 episodes I will find out when and post it here.
