Like its net- mates, Birds of Prey boasts sharp casting of little-known performers whose personalities prove as feistily engaging as their exquisite looks. And, of course, they're smart talkers.
The production is bolstered by some stunning visuals and a few tantalizing plot twists that I won't go into here. Also, the we-don't-need-Batman female empowerment angle holds some intrigue. [9 Oct 2002, p.A1]

Unexpectedly great. Well developed characters you get attached to. But alas, everything I like gets canceled after 1 season and mediocrity reins.

SEASON 1
I'm shocked how good this was... and how bad the current batch of soap-opera super-hero shows are that I stopped watching after a few episodes each. And of course this was canceled after 1 season... but the various trash shows go on indefinitely.

SEASON 1
Thanks to its lively wit and playful visual style, Birds of Prey delivers a good bit of escapist entertainment. [9 Oct 2002]
Worth watching for anyone interested in comic-book fantasy with a solemn bent. [8 Oct 2002, p.E1]
But as visually sleek and occasionally funny as Birds of Prey starts out, the show will have to get out from under its tangled premise if it's to divert easily wandering attentions. So far, it's difficult to tell where the series might be headed, but there are hints in the premiere. [9 Oct 2002, p.12C]
The series itself, though it has a stylized look and interesting set design, begins with a lethargic lack of wonder. [9 Oct 2002, p.87]
What is surprising is that the network that turned "Small ville" into a soaring hit has crashed so badly with its second flight of Spandex fancy.
Pretty good show with a lot of potential. WB didn't give it time to develop it & blocked writers. DC comics blocked too the use of characaters. The BOP orignal cast will be together once again at Hollywood Show April 25, 2015 at Westin LAX in LA, Dina Meyer, Ashley Scott, Rachel Skarsten.

SEASON 1
I actually really liked this show and thought it was a shame it was just one season. A real shame as you can see that it has such great potential. While it obviously is working on a limited budget, what they do with it is not bad and with a bit more refinement and investment, it could have been the next Smallville. Character are good and more or less not a bad adaptation of the comics, (even though it does take a few daring liberties.) Overall: I really hope that one day someone decides to try this again, reboot or continuation it doesn't matter. Perhaps the next time they should try marketing it better.

SEASON 1
This seemed to have **** just came across as kinda cheap and bland. I wanted to like it, but it's really just a creative waste of time and not worth even looking into or checking out. Just pass on it. Blah.
