Originally Posted by Comics Continuum WHV will release Birds of Prey: The Complete Series on July 29. The four-disc set will include all 13 episodes from the 2002 series as well as new bonus features.
The series -- featuring Ashley Scott as Huntress, Dina Meyer as Oracle and Rachel Skarsten as Dinah-- averaged 7.6 million viewers per week and was the largest audience in the 18-34 demographic for The WB at that time.
Here's how the show is described:
"While the world was sleeping at night, the Birds of Prey flock together to fight crime on the streets of New Gotham City. Several years after the city was abandoned by Batman, the awesome threesome of Huntress, Oracle (and Dinah was formed. Huntress is the daughter of Batman and Catwoman and can smell danger from miles away. Dinah has the gift of clairvoyance and Oracle leads the team through her cyber experience, despite being wheelchair bound by the Joker. During the course of the show, the girls are often confronted with schemes masterminded by Dr. Quinzel, but always prevail and beat him at his own game."
"The Birds of Prey continues the legacy of Batman in an action-packed show with a trio of female heroines that are adored by fans," said Rosemary Markson, WHV Vice President, TV Marketing, "We are delighted to finally release Birds of Prey: The Complete Series for the very loyal fan base and a new generation of comics lovers."
Bonus features will include the Gotham Girls animated shorts. | http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stori...4/02/index.htm
I realize I may be one of the few who cares, but I'm happy to hear this news. I didn't get to see very many of the episodes when it was on, but I liked the ones I saw.
The comment about how good the ratings were makes me confused as to why it didn't last longer.
Newest Addition(s):
TF:RotF Fearswoop & Soundwave ("Gathering at the Nemesis"). |

It'd be worth it to pick this up, if only for the Gotham Girls shorts. I wonder if it has all 3 "seasons" of those.

i have been forcing myself to wait until Goodwill gave away the Schumacher Films as coasters before getting them, so this is like, maybe, a step above that.... Quote: |
