jdotmiI like it. It's good.
Oracle works. She even works in the Batgirl flashbacks.
Huntress is very cool. Not sure on my take on the entire cats-eye thing she pulls when she starts to kick ass.
Dinah is interesting. I want to see where they take her and how much of the Comic Book version of Dinah they pull in. I know in a few episodes we find out why she isn't Black Canary, but still interested in seeing where this goes.
Alfred was perfect. Oh my god he was perfect!
Harley Quinzel. She could be a little crazier. I guess my view of what Harley Quin should be is colored by the animated series, because that's the only version of her I've ever seen until now. Her voice gets there towards the end of the episode when she reveals her insanity, but still.
However, as an avid Malkavian fan (not that I can play one) I will give major kudos to the writing for her. Someone who is insane or psychopathic is not always some teddy-bear hugging wacko who is obviously disturbed. Dr Quinzel is, probably, an excellent psychiatrist. The fact that she's heavily homicidal and evil is just a footnote to her personality.
I like the clocktower.
I feel like I'm just saying "this is good, that is good" and not giving specifics. I can't really give specifics. This was a pilot after all. It's a definite start, though. We'll see how it goes.
