Great performances, interesting style (even if it copies every comic book adaptation and makes it FAR more cartoonish than it needs to be), but there was no chance this was ever going to succeed as a TV series. Non-comic book fans aren't likely to be interested in something like this, and comic book fans would naturally feel betrayed since this could not be a more inaccurate adaptation. From the idea of Huntress being Batman and Catwoman's daughter (accurate, but was erased from the timeline long ago), to Dinah being a young girl, to Dinah having the wrong meta-human powers, to the Huntress having ANY metahuman powers at all, or the absolutely ABSURD idea that Batman would ever abandon his city, comic book fans naturally felt betrayed.
Warner Brothers, next time you want to base a television show on a comic book, feel free to take some liberties with the material, but don't violate the source material like a drunk teenager at a frat party.
