Birds of Prey (2002–2003)
6/10
Loved the original airing and the DVD (except for the musical substitutions)
23 July 2008
I would have rated this show higher except that now, watching the recent DVD release, I am utterly jaded by the musical changes made on the DVDs.

The most annoying ones are the theme song itself being swapped and in the final episode the removal of the apt-fitting "All the things she said" by TATU with some other song that I found jarring.

The actresses did well with what they were given although a couple of the episodes were rather eye-roll inducing but I've seen that in many series that were given more of a chance than BoP was.

Overall, it was an enjoyable series with characters that were more flawed and human in their behaviour than typically expected of "superheroes" and that's part of the draw of this far too short-lived series.
