Welp, I've given Birds of Prey three episodes...

and I proclaim that it sucks. Horrible writing, cheesy special effects, and certain of the “actors” should never have left Bodunk with dreams of Making It Big.

I’m rather disappointed - generally I like this type of stuff. Anyone out there with a defense of the show? Point out to me the great part of it that I’m missing - I’d like to give it another chance.

That seems to be the consensus. Shame. It’s a killer concept. I haven’t seen it yet, but all of the things people tell me make me suspect that may be a good thing.

It’ll probably pick up if they ever get the metahumans to start dressing up like superheroes and supervillains, because then you’ll have good-looking babes running around in skintight outfits.

Or, you could just watch Enterprise.

Well, Ashley Scott is so hot she makes me not miss Jessica Alba so much.

And…

Well…

Sorry, that’s all I’ve got. (Yeah, it’s a pretty bad show.)

The only redeeming feature is the actress who plays Helena, who is hot, hot, hot. Not much of an actress though.

C’mon! BoP features an ABUNDANCE OF HOTNESS! Dinah Meyer (sp?) as Oracle/Barbara Gordon is soooo luscious!

My friend doesn’t like it because they use “batarangs” which are neither bats nor boomerangs.

And if you’re looking for hot women, there MAY be a place on the internet you can find them without having to watch a crappy show…

yeah,
the show has some outstanding babes in it but i only lasted about 10 minutes, no one is that hot (except maybe katie holmes, and she can act!).

(turn on dawson’s creek, put on a king crimson album and i’m set)

I cannot watch this show based on the fact that I used to watch Ashley Scott pick her nose and digest the findings when we were in elementary school.

I tried watching it twice, because I’m a fan of Dawson’s Creek and it’s on right after. You’d think that I’d like Birds of Prey because it has the same flaws as Dawson’s Creek: silly dialogue, overly dramatic characters, weak plots for the episodes. Nope. Dawson’s Creek seems to know that it’s silly and overly dramatized and the characters make fun of themselves even as they kvetch.

But the women of Birds of Prey are so. deadly. serious. that I have to laugh at them. And then get bored fifteen minutes in and flip the channel.
