The CW Cancels BATWOMAN After Three Seasons
After three seasons, The CW has decided to cancel DC’s Batwoman series. I’m not really surprised with the way with the direction the creative team was taking things. I personally didn’t find the story arcs with the characters all that interesting.
Batwoman could and shoud have been an awesome series. I think it could have been one of the best DC shows on The CW if it was done right. Showrunner Caroline Dries shared the news on social media, saying she was “bummed, but full of gratitude”. Her full statement reads:
Just got the sad news that #Batwoman will not be seeing an S4. I am bummed, but full of gratitude. What an honor to make 51 episodes. So many inspiring, brilliant people contributed to this series. Thank you producers, cast and crew. Thank you, fans! We love you.
The series also faced some challenges over the course of its three seasons. Season 1 focused on Kate Kane, the cousin of Bruce Wayne, who becomes Batwoman. Ruby Rose played Kane, but ended up dropping out for various reasons. Javicia Leslie was then cast to play former convict Ryan Wilder, another version of Batwoman.
Season 3 wrapped production in March. Did you watch Batwoman? What do you think about it being canceled?
