Posted on 07/17/2018 11:51:14 AM PDT by Red Badger
Greg Berlanti and Caroline Dries are developing the drama ahead of the lesbian character's debut in the network's DC crossover event in December.
The CW is looking to expand its DC Comics world.
The network is teaming with DC's small-screen universe mastermind Greg Berlanti to develop Batwoman as a TV series. The character of Batwoman will officially be introduced in December as part of The CW's annual DC series crossover event.
Batwoman revolves around Kate Kane, who, armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city's criminal resurgence. But don't call her a hero yet: in a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham's symbol of hope.
aroline Dries (The Vampire Diaries) is attached to pen the script and exec produce the series, which is based on DC Comics characters. Berlanti and his Warner Bros. TV-based Berlanti Productions topper Sarah Schechter and Geoff Johns will exec produce the drama. A casting notice for the role of Kate will be going out shortly.
The DC crossover will mark the first time the character of Batwoman will appear in live-action form on any screen when she is seen fighting alongside The CW's heroes.
Should Batwoman move to series, it would join a slate of DC series at The CW that includes Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow and Black Lightning as Berlanti also builds a roster of DC fare on the comic book powerhouse's forthcoming DC Universe subscription digital platform. Launching in August, that platform will feature scripted originals including Titans, Doom Patrol and more.
The script deal brings Dries back to The CW and Warner Bros. TV, for whom she served as showrunner on The Vampire Diaries. Dries exited briefly for an overall deal with Sony TV. Her credits include Melrose Place and Smallville.
Berlanti, meanwhile, is fresh off renewing his overall deal with Warner Bros. TV in a $400 million, four-year extension. The deal includes cash incentives that kick in when he hits a specific number of series. Heading into the fall, Berlanti has a record 14 scripted TV series on the air across six networks and produces two animated series airing on a seventh. They are: The CW's All American, Arrow, Black Lightning, Legends of Tomorrow, The Flash, Riverdale and Supergirl; NBC's Blindspot; CBS' God Friended Me and The Red Line; The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina at Netflix; DC Universe's digital service's Doom Patrol and Titans; Lifetime's You; and The CW Seed animated series Freedom Fighters: The Way and Constantine: City of Demons. He's repped by WME and Felker Toczek.
Sorry faggies, we’re not buying it. But go ahead and pander to the sicko minority. That’s a GREAT business plan!

Because THEY want you to....................
This series will clearly be sponsored by personal injury lawyers and vaginal atrophy medications.
Julie Newmar is, and always will be, the HOTTEST Batwoman .
All the rest can suck eggs
She was CAT Woman............................
Yvonne Craig was Batgirl in the 60’s..................
Gives a whole new meaning to “Bat Cave”
Even Batman agreed:
That bottom gif is hilarious. Was that really a clip from the TV show?
Sadly, it’s an outtake - from the real series but never broadcast:

“. . . impressive out-takes . . . during the filming of the episode ‘Surf’s Up! Joker’s Under!’”
“’We were going down a hallway single file and there was Adam and then me and then Burt was behind me. So we’re all tiptoeing along and Adam’s supposed to say, ‘Shhh!’ and put his hand back to stop us from advancing any further because he hears someone coming. As he put his hand back, it was on my breast, but he thought his hand was on my shoulder, or so he said, and left it there. I’m standing there thinking, ‘Oh, dear, I know where his hand is, but maybe I shouldn’t break up because we could use some of this,’ being the professional that I am. I figured we could cut away and use some of it so I figured I’d better just stay there. Finally the crew started breaking up and they finally said, ‘Cut! Cut! Cut!’ Then somebody said to him, ‘Adam, where was your hand?’ And he said, ‘Uh, on her shoulder?’ I thought either he had no sense of anatomy or that will tell you something about the lingerie in those days. They had such firm bras that he thought it was a shoulder instead of a breast. That take is somewhere because they did keep it, but I don’t know where it is.”
Eat your heart out, Julie Newmar!
probably won’t have anything on “The 100” ...
Review:
The 100 - story of ‘powerful’ AND super smart women, aka FEMALE fantasy Scifi:
Women able to kill large strong men twice their size consistently, pushing fagotry, able to lead nations, while psychologically weak and stupid men cower doing the women’s bidding and stupid things for stupid reasons. A story where people suffer grievous wounds which often have no apparent effect other than a little blood, while traumatic injuries often are miraculously not fatal. Scenes filmed with as little light as possible. Blood, lots and lots of blood everywhere.
Just to prove how stupid this show is: there are vehicles with fixed belt-fed mini-guns on the hood which are never fired no matter how dire the situation; not to mention people injecting themselves with black blood, but managing to keep their rose pink skin.
Show includes female decorated Navy SEAL in keeping with the fantasy.
watch it and laugh because this season earth is dead except for one region with a mostly male prison population controlled by what looks to be the only female prisoner from a group that escaped a prison in space. the other group seems to be made up of mostly women with a few stupid men.... the almost all Male prisoners don’t want to share the one place on earth that can still support farming and life with only women left on earth...don’t know about you but if I had been in space prison for years and I had no real morals I would be More interested in having as relationship with the women then killing them....and this is not because I am smart more like because I want sex and one of the guys wont do...
You are completely disqualified ... smart men are not allowed, only stupid hulks that are composed of flab and fat, because they are easy for the super smart super women to kill.
Besides men are physically incapable of killing women on “The 100”.
Case in point: one tiny woman with no particular muscular build manages to kill over 10 battle hardened men in about as many seconds without mussing her hair using her trusty, rusty short sword.
Sex is only permitted with same sex partners with rare exceptions and only between very unlikely people.
