DC's Batwoman [Season 1,] Episode 20: O, Mouse! by AverageMansReviews

DC's Batwoman [Season 1,] Episode 20: O, Mouse! by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/face scarring/flesh molded into a face/medical procedures

Storyline/It is too late for these character developments: now these two points go hand-in-hand here; the storyline is good but however it leaves things on question-marks; question-marks that it ranges from will continue into the Second Season to hell no it will not continue into the Second Season based on the grounds our lead character Kate Kane has left the building and everything else in the middle meaning your guess is as good as mine what they want to take or leave from this shambles of a First Season.

So how can Ruby Rose as Kate Kane/Batwoman in short say it is the right time to pass on the mantle; when Kate Kane's story is only half done in this story? When Kate Kane as Batwoman finally experiences a little bit of what Beth Kane/Alice has experienced for 15 years or slightly a little bit more; Kate Kane is still worried about just Kate Kane as she is talking to her Stepsister Mary Hamilton; how is Kate Kane or Kate Kane/Batwoman unable to develop is a character or a person through everything we have either experienced or seen and Col Jacob Kane is even worse they have tried to give him what I can only best describe as a character development boost in this Season Finale; well it has taken you/them 20 Episodes to give Colonel Jacob Kane some noticeable substance in his character developments in his own right.

I mean even the expression "better late than never" really does not apply here, because this is one of those situations where it would have been better out of the two choices if they just didn't change it at this point, because it just highlights another problem with the writing of this First Season, basically what I'm saying here is; they should be on damage control so if they don't touch something they cannot make it worse; yes I know if they don't touch something they cannot make it better either, but being as this is the 20th Episode of 20 what is the point now they may as well have waited until Season 2.

I have found it infuriatingly painful that either Colonel Jacob Kane or Kate Kane [not as a child] but as an adult or as Batwoman has never really either took responsibility for how Beth Kane/Alice has turned out or made a really big effort to understand her; it's like "Oh she is damaged goods I am done with her." with her extremely unnecessary comments or betrayals and I am not blind to the fact that Beth Kane/Alice has done terrible things. But they left her behind; I know I have brain damage and a mental health illness, but I can't be the only one that sees her being left behind as a child as a life altering turning point in her life and as a child she cannot be held responsible for being left behind.

I should just point out there is some perfection character developments from a character in this episode, but I have decided to discuss the ones I have because throughout this entire season it sticks out like a sore thumb that the Kane/Hamilton family connection would have been much more happier if Beth Kane/Alice had remained dead which is an excellent reflection on today's society anyone or anything damaged or inconvenient is either swept under the carpet or thrown away.

Kate Kane/Batwoman vs. Tim "The Titan" Teslow: this takes place in this either High School or College American Football Stadium; this is good action and good art going hand-in-hand here.

This episode receives: 5/10, this episode is mixed; I don't know what you want me to say here the only character/performer that comes over as relentlessly in-depth and bizarrely well-rounded is Beth Kane/Alice performed by Rachel Skarsten, don't get me wrong there are some good characters/performers as well, but she is continuously there knocking it out of the park, without her this TV program would be nothing and this is one of those occasions where you would dread to think where this TV program would have ended up, I will tell you where it would have ended up on the list of cancelled TV programs after just 1 Season. There are some action sequences that are either good or better and likewise for the artistic visions, but other than that they will have to do a death and rebirth of a Phoenix on this TV program to get it on its feet, I would have said again but it may help the situation if it was on its feet to begin with.

But of what I have heard and seen online I am getting the feeling of déjà vu here and as of this blog [when it was first dictated I haven't seen a trailer yet.]

On a side note from now on I will be withdrawing any mention of me using a softer version of an adult language at the top of the contents in question, because in DC's Batwoman [Season 1,] Episode 10: How Queer Everything Is Today! I did use an adult softer version of a word without giving you a heads up; I remember why it would have been breaking my 3 to 5 things about one episode, the more time I spend thinking about it more time I think which I could be wrong I had done this in other episodes o or another f this TV program as well, I can’t remember but either way never mind. I will still be using the just a heads up for information bits and pieces. But whilst I'm on the subject I am aware that this TV program has been renewed for a Third Season and what really tiny little bits and pieces as things stand here and now. I have no idea why they have done this. But in the interest of fairness and balance as of this Review/Blog I haven't seen Season 2 of this TV program so I will have to wait and see; yes this is me attempting to put a ever so slightly positive spin on things. [I can possibly hear some of you saying out there in Internet land that “I have seen this Season Second I really wouldn’t bother attempting to put a positive spin on it; it is worse than the First Season.”  All I can say is; “I know, but I am just trying remains a little bit positive about things until I have seen it.”
