It's fair to say the following:
This series has no artistic content. The costumes are bad, Gotham doesn't resemble any Gotham worthy of the name from a longtime comic fan point of view, and there is no respect for the source material either. I don't mind that women play a major role here. I am not misogynist. The fact that other sexualities apart from heterosexuality play a role here doesn't bother me either. I don't care what people do within their private sexuality, as long as everything is done in agreement with the respective partner. If that were the case, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy a large part of the Batwoman comics either, because - surprise! - Here too, women and, for example, lesbians play a prominent role. And I think Batwoman's first run in the comics is awesome. Nevertheless, it can be said that the men's bashing that takes place here can hardly be surpassed in terms of cringe feelings. Batwoman springs from the Batman myth. Is that bad or untrue orwhat? Facts are facts and remain facts.
For sure it's also fair if somebody likes this show. I don't understand why the should, there are no cineastic or artistic reasons for that, but hey, tastes are different, opinions differ. But it's also true, that there are many good reasons for a bad review of this series. I already named a few, but there are more, such as the soporific dialogues (a real person would never speak that way), the bad cinematography, the embarrassing antagonists, etc. Etc.
This doesn't make somebody a sexist or whatever. To assume so is wrong and deletions of non-offending critizism is not okay.
I find it embarressing, that many people can't respect other, negative, opinions on this show, and try to call them out as ignorant or whatever.. That they think they are on the side of the good and the just is a mystery to me.
In my opinion, it's a fact that this series is the worst that has happened to comic book adaptations since Catwoman. If you enjoy? Have fun, but don't put down people who express another opinion.
