  • This is one of the worst shows based on a comic book ever made. It makes no fucking sense. It pisses me off to no end, especially because I have a Birds of Prey comic in my hands.

  • Should've...and would've worked better as a movie.

  • HOLY Shit 1:00 , IT'S JESSIE FROM BREAKING BAD!!!!

  • o.k can someone tell me, who does black canary tell the future, and does not have super sonic screaming powers?

  • @alixandraeight that's kinda what i thought too! lol.

  • @TransDIYer IKR! :)

  • @alixandraeight Spoiler Alert

    Its her daughter Dinah she is black canary's daughter

  • @TheCollectorofVideos Dinah has the Canary Cry, her mother didn't.

  • Even thought they got canceled early on the producers didn't let the show end open ended. They ahd a 2 hour finale. Good idea.

  • awesome show.... gone before its time... imagine the possibilities of cross-over episodes with Smallville it could have had!

  • God damnit I really want to watch this show. I've only been able to find a torrent of it so far and it doesn';t have any seeders! How do I watch the series? I heard that got really high viewer statistics and decent ratings, why was it cancelled!?

  • @The111DooD the easy way with less hastle would be to buy the series....

  • @Kunesume2 I already torrented it quite a while ago. It was pretty bad

  • @The111DooD It's on par with the JLA pilot episode.

  • @batmanownsyourass Oh wow now I have to see this too.

  • @The111DooD Prepare for disappointment. It's like getting a huge present on Christmas and then finding nothing but socks in it.

  • @batmanownsyourass lol I love getting new socks for christmas, but I watched the first 10 minutes of the pilot and it was quite attrocious!

  • @The111DooD lol. 

  • @Kunesume2 I did buy it, I want my money back.

  • Why doesn't dc throw babs into the lazarus pit?whyyyy??Btw i hate the way they present dinah in this show...and obviously alfred is 100 years old or smthg....

  • where can I watch the episodes online?

  • is alfred imortal?

  • do the math

  • @Raelissa

    lmao

  • It really was more to show of the female heroes not just the men it really wasn't bad i kinda liked the new approach if it lasted longer i bet they would of brought batman back in the fold at the end The whole series is on DVD now

  • Freaking hell, every one of those songs in that trailer is in my PSP.

    Who thought this show was a good idea?

    It might have worked had they been more true to the comic series of the same name.

  • Actually, years ago in the seventies, in the comics of Earth 2, Batman and Catwoman did have a daughter, who would become the Huntress.... :D research it meliketalaugh

  • And She also had a kid from Sam Bradley Jr. Also named her Helena.

  • Yeah and i liked Helena Wayne far more than the current Hellena Bertinneli , her backup Stories on Wonder Woman on the late Saveties and Early Eighties done by Leviz Staton were excelllent, maybe it didn t got that much recognition since seh was a female hero. Damian Wayne shows that Batman can have a son on normal continuty, as hinted on th Son of Demon Graphic Novel, who was arbitrarialy left off-continuity by mr Denny O Neil.

  • If i had to pick i would have Helena Wayne as Batman only daugther, but in comics such as in life you can t always get what you want. I can still fantasize about it, though.

  • The only heir to the Batman title is Terry Mcginnis in my books. Helena Kyle is a crappy heir with a bad additude that matches that of Jason Todd who thinks she's not worry about the dangers all around her, and Damian Wayne is another crappy heir with a temper the size of cleveland who thinks he's worthy of the bat title.

  • For me the Mantle goes to Helena Wayne, who could not be recohnized as heir in official continuty cause back then , the editorial stafff figured it was best to have a Batman without offspring. The original Helena was no spoiled brat , she was a tactucian, well read her back apearnaces. I agrre with you regarding Damian Wayne , adding the frustration i felt when Son of the Demon , the Graphic Novel, was excluded of continuity, in that 1987 story Batman had a son with Talia ,.

  • But Denny Onei send him to limbo , elsweorlds . Terry Macginnis is a cool Character but from a possible future, you could include Carrie Kelley(Dark Knight ) there.

  • Why didnt they just keep it at batman and batgirl....no they had to do the child of batman and catwomen who in the comics was a boy.....i dont get it.

  • is that real? I've never known about it T.T where can i get it or see it?

  • Ya Birds of Prey is real, it aired awhile back in 05 or 04 not really sure

  • It aired around 2002-2003

  • When you said "long trailer"- man you weren't kidding! :o

  • Birds of Prey had horrible advertising and the show wasn't aired in LA at least TWICE cuz of the stupid Clippers. The WB was all about showing the Clippers but they f-ing sucked! What made it worse was that the WB didn't show the missed shows that aired everywhere else so LA would be lost on the story. The WB killed Birds of Prey.

    (PS. Ashley Scott turned me gay ;) Great outfit,)

  • Ima put it out there. This show fucking sucked. Each and every episode sucked hairy, pus infected balls on a level with Halle Berry's Catwoman.

    It SUCKED. If it didn't, it would still be on the air, like Smallville.

  • Why didn't the writers include Dr. Pamela Lillian Isley aka Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn's best friend. Unlike most villain team-ups, their partnership seems to be genuinely rooted in friendship, and Ivy sincerely wants to save Harley from her abusive relationship with the Joker. Ivy sympathizes with Harley, as Harley is mistreated by the man she loves. :(

  • @Shadowhawk28 That's your question? Not something like, why didn't the writers look at more than a character roster when making this series? Why did they use a wrapped version of Helena Wayne, who is called Helena Kyle in this show and she has super powers? Why did they give Oracle some freaky robot legs? Why did they make this show?

  • @batmanownsyourass FYI: I watched an episode or two of this series when it first came on TV and hated it. Fast forward to NOW and I picked up the entire series, feeling maybe I didn't give it a fair shake. I watched EVERY episode. And now I can tell you with certainty that it is terrible. I don't care about the liberties taken with the characters. And I LOVE the characters. I own most of the comic series.

  • @batmanownsyourass The REAL Truth behind that failed Birds of Prey series was that Warner Bros. hated Oracle/Batgirl being in a wheel chair and wanted to push the younger Huntress character to attract the young adult audience. The writers didn't know what to do with the Dinah character, since she didn't have any super physical abilities, and they debated writing her out of the series.

  • @batmanownsyourass DC Comics nixed the use of any of the major DC characters, and the writers could only reference minor ones. The Warner Bros. movie division told the TV division hands off Batman and the Joker. The TV division had them shoot on the Warner lot instead of Toronto, which limited the scope of what they could do. Stories with non-meta villains were vetoed. The writers were exiled from the set and the production offices.

  • @batmanownsyourass The network wanted Harley Quinn dropped at one point. I could go on and on.

  • Too bad that The Joker never battled Helena Wayne aka The Huntress. :( Or I never got to see other Batman foes in that Birds of Prey Series besides Clayface, Harley Quinn, Lady Shiva, and Catwoman. And it';s not the same with out The Duke of Duality, Harvey Dent aka Two-Face. :(

  • the series was too short for that personally I d include Hugo Strange, The KG Beast, the Riddler, Deathstroke,  and since you mention duality how about Duela Dent, the original Harlequin?

  • She's not Related To Harvey Dent.

  • In the Pre Crisis stories she was his daugther or presumes being so, and Since Helena is HelenA Kyle and not Bertinelli, and Black Canary has powers the comic character dosnt have, well you gt it if the show would have go on Creative License woudl have permited Duelas Apperance as I remeber her from the late Seventies.. Maerry XMAs

  • According to executive producer Hans Tobeason, WB had "issues" with Oracle and her chair (what's more, they tried to freeze her out of the show altogether by limiting her screentime.)

  • Thanks for the info. the the projrct was doomed from tha start. Reminds me of the early Ninties Flash series which was quite good and got cancelled, Bird¡s of Prey was developing into something that might have beeen interesting. Imagine if Smallville had such vetoes , it woud have failed, of course.

  • You mentioned small time characters, well how about the Mad Hatter, Mister Szasz, Firefly, Deadshot now that is a coool one, or invented characters, or G Arrow s foes, who knows

  • Like i said this series suffered from the infamous bat-embargo.

  • Finally did it got negative impact from the lousy Catwoman Movie, or that came along after the series was canceleld?

  • *shudders* Don't remind me about Halle Berry's horrid 2004 Movie.

  • so the show aired later? then more bad news.

  • No No, Birds of Prey aired around 2002-2003 way before that Horrid Catwoman was made.

  • thanks for the info, Shadowhawk, well i am stil trying to get the episodes i didnt see , believe it or not I saw one just two months ago.

  • Yet Im working on a Batman Beyond story of my own that has some elements of Birds of Prey, like Jesse Reese which i think should be redeemed.

  • I will be looking for it, I always liked the original Untress concept not only because of the character , but because it happened in a near future, it was dark the Joker was deadly, sound familiar yup , to me it was just like another version of future Batman similar to the Dark Knight returns. Why dint it get enogh press? , many reasons, one of them is sexism on comics. Good luck with your project.

  • Thanks, Also im trying to get answers from WB who are now part of Youtube. I asked them why they did it, and why did they tried to remove Barbara Gordon from the show.

  • goof luck on tha tone too

  • You can find them under WarnerBrosOnline, here on Youtube.

  • I've been meaning to check this out.

  • Birds of Prey needs to make a come-back!!!!!

  • Birds of Prey...YEEEAAHHH!!

    why end too soon??

    Greece here btw :P:>

  • How does this show compare to Smallville? Is it at least as good?

    I'm a hardcore Batman fan. Does it feel at all like Batman of the movies, or does it feel more like Batgirl for teens?

  • It's like Smallville post-Batman era which is meant for guys and girls.

  • Well it had the possibilities of being like Smallville but didn't last long enough. Though it is good if you are into the Batman and Catwoman love and daughter thing. But not like the comic book birds of prey, but it did do justice to Batman I thought.

  • Interesting that you just sent this, I had just put in one of the Birds of Prey DVDs and started watching the pilot episode, and took a break to go online. The intro of all the characters points to an interesting show.

  • i love that opening shot of gotham from the 1989 batman

  • ha this is going to be the suck !

  • was mia sara originally casted as harley quinn, because this harley quinn at 3:30 looked so not mia sara

  • the woman you see as Harley in this clip is not Mia, the pilot was made with her, but she had to leave so they re shot the scenes from the pilot with Mia who stayed for the rest of the season

  • Actress Mia Sara, who replaced Sherilyn Fenn (originator of the role in an unaired pilot episode).

  • this show had such potential to be great. It ended too soon but will live on in my dvd collection

  • This is worst than Batman & Robin.

  • Fuck you! Birds of Prey are the best.

  • In what way do you think this show is the best?

  • You can buy it at best buy thats where I got my copy of it and thankfully someone uploaded all of the episodes I just love this show...

  • Batman shouldve pulled out.

  • do anyone know a website where i can watch Bird Of Prey eps ??????

  • I will buy it. I will buy it. I will buy it.

  • I bought it. I bought it. i watched it. I loved it.

  • what the song at 00:13?

  • Rob Dougan - Clubbed to death

  • thanx dude

  • Thet did the opening very nicely, all the Batman Returns clips, but does anyone know the song that plays at 00:13? it sounds awesome ^^

  • What band plays the song at 00:13?

    Linkin Park sings the song at 1:23? If yes, the name of the song?

  • omfg this is so cool

  • i never saw the show, but where was the joker in all this?

  • In the 1st 10 minutes of the first aired episode, it shows the Joker leave town after killing Catwoman/Selina and shooting Barbara Gordon. It is told by Alfred that Batman left Gotham to track down the Joker.

  • what song is it

  • i loved this show so much, i was sooo mad when it was cancelled

  • same

  • Helan wayne is back in comic, jsa annuals..

  • Looks cheesy... but I have to respect them for making reference to Killer Joke and Oracle. But it doesnt look as a good as Smallville.

  • thank god this t.v. show is going to be on dvd july 15th yay!!!! i love this show!

  • so they used clips from the michael keaton movie? lolz

  • Yes and no. Some shots were used from Batman Returns and new footage was added with "On Star" Batman actor Bruce Thomas.

  • OMG! WHY WAS THAT CANCLED?! :o

  • wtf is up with harley? she doesn't act right on this show. i mean weres her pig tails and blonde hair?

  • Imagine see Michael Keaton making a cameo in this series it would be sooooooooo AWASOME!!

  • The Voice of Joker On This Show Was Mark Hamill, just like on the cartoon. . .Isn't that something. . .

  • The Voice of Joker On This Show Was Mark Hamill, just like on the cartoon. . .Isn't that something. . .

  • I know people said it was a bad show but i really really liked it.

  • I love this show. Can you find us some footage of Mia Sara as Harley?  Mia with blonde hair is sooo hot.

  • Mia did a great HQ but why were they using Sherrlyn Fenn as HQ in the trailer? Answer me that ?

  • The producers replaced Fenn after the pilot was shot. WB wanted them to stick closer to the comic in appearance. Thus Mia (a blond) replaced her.

  • Harl Quinn's original hair colour is a dark brown. It is stated in one of her comics.

  • necesito que me manden una respuesta que paso realmente con batman en el episodio piloto de birds of prey !!

  • Sorry, I meant to say Nightwing! I heard somewhere on the internet that he was in this show.

  • Isn't Nighteing Supposed to be in this too?

  • is it really that bad of a tv show? i have never seen any of the episodes. it looks good though.

  • It wasn't bad at all. It was really great!! The program was cancelled because of the budget. It's a pity.

  • I thought it was declining ratings that led to the show's cancellation.

  • is this actually an upcoming film??? god, i hope so

  • No, It is a trailer for an old canceled T.V. show. It didn't even last two seasons.

  • Awesome, thanks. Had given up on trying to hear the lyrics.

  • Hey, I too wanna know what's the song playing in 02:39? Can somebody tell me at least the artist that sings it?

  • It's called Lust by Balligomingo.

  • do you know the music around 02:39 ?

  • I just simply love this show, the bells of the Clocktower, the sound of birds...simply brilliant.

  • No... It's an awesome Tv show!!!
