DC's Batwoman [Season 1,] Episode 15: Off with Her Head by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/suicide/face scarring/disfigurement/child abuse - mental & physical/mental abuse/character on fire/strangling to death/decapitation.

Finally everything gets on the same page: now yes usually I would section things off a little bit more than this and I will still do that in this review. But as it relates to here and now it makes more sense to talk about things like this, because it would make things easier to discuss and to read; now for some strange reason they have now decided to put out an excellent storyline with many things happening in different locations with different characters and on top of that we now have these characters in the same bracket of character developments, basically no one feels out of place in this episode.

But now the question has to be asked; why didn't this TV program begin something like this? Instead of being socially aware of something which it didn't need to be or so heavy in its representation and because I know there are some people out there that have itchy typing fingers right about now, I mean it from this perspective; this TV program was released in 2019 and not 1989, this basically means in 1989 this heavy usage of social politics ticking would have been brave and fresh new TV, but however in 2019 or 2020 [when this was first dictated,] I mean this respectfully no one cares about sexuality providing you are you and not being pushed into it, but what people do care about in 2019 or 2020 is; something being rammed down their throats.

I mean in fairness and balance it isn't just the sexuality component, basically to somewhat abbreviate this; it would be quicker and easier just to scrap a lot of this season and just start again, minus Beth Kane/Alice; yes it does have positive episodes to its name, but if you have been reading these episodes in the right order as I have been releasing them; you have to admit we have been through a lot of mud holes to get to this point and just based on how things are at the moment [which means absolutely nothing,] but I would like to think of the remaining episodes of this First Season that it is smooth sailing just based on the grounds everything seems to be pulling in the same direction now.

Homemade flamethrower: because this element is tiny all I can say is; it is good action and good dark comedy.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is top-notch entertainment; this episode shows the true strength of what this TV show could have been and should have been about from day one; yes I have never read the comic books or I know nothing minus what I am watching about this Batwoman. But however as I have just said if they went with something like this from day one; just maybe the TV ratings for this First Season wouldn't have done an excellent impression of the Titanic.
