Birds of Prey

I decided to borrow the Birds of Prey DVD series from Netflix. I heard that a lot of geeks liked it, so I decided to see what the buzz was all about.

I've only caught the pilot so far, plus a bit of the next episode. So far, I don't see what the big deal is. Don't get me wrong; it's okay, and the concept is certainly interesting. It just doesn't grab me, though.

Yeah, yeah. I know. I know that I need to give it more time.

Perhaps part of my problems is that two of the main characters have these superpowers. I think it kinda violates the original Birds of Prey comic book concept, and in my judgment, it makes the whole premise less interesting. That's just my view, though.
