DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 51: We Having Fun Yet? by AverageMansReviews

DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 51: We Having Fun Yet? by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/shooting/transformation

Bat-Blimp: Storyline, Art, Action and Character [Character development:] these combined in one way or another; we have Marquis Jet trying to finish off The Joker's work/plan using the Bat-Blimp; which this looks great going over Gotham City a little while later; Wilder/Batwoman is doing combat with Jet [ they are half siblings] toward the closing stages of this action sequences Wilder/bat woman thinks/is momentarily under the impression that she is getting through to him, but it is one of the oldest tricks in the book, you know when for example and evildoer says sorry or shows signs of remorse or anything like this, just to try and get an upper hand in their particular situation that is what we have here.

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent: let's just say it gets slowly better and better. So in that is the third season done and dusted, I am just happy to have gotten through that.This TV program has some awards accredited to its name 2 Winners; for an example ReFrame 2021; ReFrame Stamp IMDbPro Top 200 Most Popular TV Titles 2020-2021 with 12 Nominees; for example Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films, USA 2021; Saturn Award;  Best Superhero Adaptation Television Series.

I have to issue an apology: it looks like I have to issue an apology, a little bit before watching the trailer for this third season; I was under the impression that it was going to be the third and final season. Based on what I was finding out at the time from various sources and I really, really did look into it; what I mean by this; is the volume of research I did at the time. [To try and avoid this situation I am now in,] but now after the previous couple of days it looks increasingly more likely we will have a Season 4 as without giving too much away this final episode leaves things with a new problem.

But apologies once again for any inconvenience, but maybe next time I will just wait until it has it on websites were it has it like year this TV program began to the year it finished that way I can't get it wrong [additional after the day this blog went up; to cover my back either way I don't know what is happening with the fourth season, is it going ahead or not? I don't know, on research I can find potentially yes or maybe or nothing has been confirmed yet.]

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/shooting/drugs/suffocation/scarring/vomiting

I am happy absolutely delighted that this is the penultimate episode: Action, Storyline, Character [Character developments] and bloopers; these combined in one way or another. Beth Kane/Alice enters Wayne Enterprises [we meet her in a opening elevator with a cricket bat in her hand and a member of security  which has obviously felt her wrath,] with her taking out more of security including shooting looking for this enjoyment buzzer which used to belong to Jack Napier a.k.a. The Joker [just to cover my back yes it is Jack Napier and not Arthur Fleck, I can tell this because of his appearance as face paint, clothing and so on in this episode.]

I will have two at some point in the future make another blog about more or less these three seasons very much pushing their agendas. But adamantly sticking to the narrative of Beth Kane or Beth Kane/Alice being this evildoer and in short I have never condoned what she has done or going to do, but she isn't out and out evil, her family have let her down every opportunity they get including in this episode where Dr. Hamilton says " I don't have a sister." first blooper she has two stepsisters, so she has at least a sister/stepsister ; Kate Kane [but to be fair she apologised later on in this episode,that is after Dr. Hamilton finds out that Beth Kane/Alice takes a hit for her in her life,] but she said this and other things in this dialogue exchange two harm Beth Kane/Alice mentally, when Beth Kane/Alice is at this point critically unstable and needing someone to be there for her and on top of that you have without giving too much away everyone choosing to assist Wilder or Wilder/Batwoman with her family situation as it relates to this enjoyment buzzer.

I mean what really does get up my nose is there is no conflict within these characters as in Beth Kane/Alice isn't out and out evil yes she has done terrible things, but apologies for repeating myself but her family left her behind and in fairness and balance Wilder's family member is in a similar bus as it relates to this one situation that changed their entire life and it does get covered in this episode. But then again I suppose it does help when you have girlfriend and a sidekick battling for you in your corner as well doesn't it.

The second blooper; Barbara Kean against her will [face/head mask connected to this machine which has 7 clinical trials worth of medication which didn't work,] so she inhales, she foams out of the mouth, looking like she is dead, with her not breathing and our evildoer giving this standard parting message of say hello to enter name here or something roughly to that effect. You think she would be dead, but you would be wrong because sometime later Wilder/Batwoman takes off this apparatus and somehow she is alive, yes I live taking 7 clinical trials of medication that didn't work all at once, so it is going to be a lethal dosage including forcing you to foam out of the mouth; yes of course you're going to still be alive after a significant amount of time being left like that, that is so normal right... Not! But at least she vomited after being released, with using that logic she will be absolutely fine... Once again not! Yes we don't know what happens to her after this situation, but she should be dead anyway.

This episode receives: 5/10, this episode is mixed; on reflection I couldn't give or take anything less away, because on one hand it really, really, really push the narrative that Beth Kane/Alice deserves happiness and likewise really, really, really puts mental health under the bus. Whilst on the other hand this episode has consistently positives to it as well, so after everything is said and done this mark is a fair outcome.

DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 49: Broken Toys by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/stabbing/shooting

So Beth Kane/Alice is going to be killed off by the end of this TV program then: Storyline, Character [Character developments:] Comedy and Action these all combined in one way or another; I should quickly state that this is not a spoiler and it is just speculation on my part, but if you have been with me long enough you would know or will now I have been speculating this since Season 2 for example DC's Batwoman [Season 2,] Episode 23: Bat Girl Magic! Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2021/08/dcs-batwoman-season-2-episode-23-bat.html I mean if you can read what you can hear and see, it is annoyingly transparent that by the end of this season that Wilder will have everything she ever wanted a family, a girlfriend and possibly a good career. Dr. Hamilton [after being saved by her stepsister Beth Kane/Alice; Beth Kane/Alice pushes Dr Hamdan out of the way of a fatal shot or something] and dedicates the rest of her life to her clinic possibly renaming it The Kane's Clinic after her stepfather and to stepsisters.

I mean if I am anyway near the right ballpark I will be absolutely fuming, because throughout these three seasons they have tried to drill into our heads that Beth Kane/Alice is a villain, but this is simply not the case I mean throughout season 1 when it was appropriate I highlighted Beth Kane/Alice has done or going to do terrible things which I never condoned, for an example DC's Batwoman [Season 1,] Episode 8: A Mad Tea-Party Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2021/02/dcs-batwoman-season-1-episode-8-mad-tea.html but in a nutshell her family gave up on her and left her behind at 12 years old or somewhere around here if my memory is correct, so she had to survive any way possible. I mean if you read the entire season 1 of reviews this fact and family or stepfamily don't take any responsibility for this which irritated me so much.

But as it relates to here and now I just wanted to bring this up now so when or if it happens I can use this review as reference that I said it way before it happened. I just think it is incredibly fuming, frustrating and sad that this TV program pushes i its agenda yet puts mental health and the fact that if you do anything wrong with or without mental health influences [I should quickly state; it depends what the individual or individuals have done] but in the context of this TV program; Beth Kane/Alice cannot move on from it because as this TV show proves they [meaning these characters will put it back in Beth Kane's/Alice's face when it suits them.]

But let's be positive for a minute; Beth Kane/Alice doing the empty drink straw sucking thing over this important dialogue between Wilder, Fox and Moore this legendary inventor Kiki Roulette and Beth Kane/Alice taking all of this seriousness out of this situation with this beautifully timed sound effect/activity.

Later on there is this lively simultaneous action sequences yes I am classifying this as one action sequence, because they are simultaneous these are good, I will tell you the teams; we have Wilder/Batwoman, Dr. Hamilton and Beth Kane/Alice dealing with one situation and then we have Moore Fox/Batwing dealing with another situation.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; but it clearly suggests that after everything is said and done at the very least Beth Kane/Alice isn't going to have a happy ending and yes I would really like to be wrong about this, I mean at this point I will take a her being alive and free, but not able to come back to Gotham City

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/torture/disfigurement

Thanks for popping through Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; these combined in one way or another. Yes generally speaking this episode is good, but what was the point of Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy being in this live action TV program? On reflection it makes this blog of mine look really stupid now Average Extra of: DC's Batwoman 2019 Season 3 Trailer Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2021/10/average-extra-of-dcs-batwoman-2019.html you see this is one of those occasions where I would have been much less irritated if we hadn't seen her, because it would fit in better with the Season storyline if they had just up with Dr. Hamilton as Poison Ivy [ before I get someone triggered] I mean it from the perspective of well they had been going with the narrative of someone taking over as insert name here or using their accessory or other so it makes much better sense to carry on like that and as I have already made reference to it and now look stupid because I was very much under the impression because silly me I saw Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy as a big deal and one of the elite of Batman's enemies, without a shadow of a doubt should have been given an entire season and not forgetting without being sexist or a chauvinist it has been ramped down my throat for almost 3 Seasons yet again I was under the impression that this TV program was heavily geared towards femininity and other elements of our society, so why give this elite enemy a small part.

They really did go out of their way to take the shine off Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy, you see whenever she speaks in previous episodes she spoke properly, articulate with purpose. Even though she is doing wrong she makes a persuasive argument, but where I gave her high praise in the previous episode review I have to now say she is a good character which is a massive drop from where she was in previous episode review; DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 47: Meet Your Maker Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2022/01/dcs-batwoman-season-2-episode-45-meet.html finally we have Wilder/Batwoman vs. Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy this is action sequence is a good action sequence taking place inside Gotham Dam and roughly at the three-quarter stage or later and breakaway to in a nutshell have Fox/Batwing flight with these vines and make the dam secure and then we go back to the final bit of  Wilder/Batwoman vs. Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; on the whole this mark is a fair conclusion but at the end of this Third and Final Season I will come out with a separate blog, because that way I cannot break my 3 to 5 things about one episode I am just saying this now just to point out that I am very, very much aware that this TV program has massive problems, yes even though that the episodes may have positive marks, it's like they are slowly edging towards the conclusion of this TV program and they just want to get through it, don't worry the feeling is mutual.

DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 47: Meet Your Maker by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/animal cruelty/drowning/impaling/shooting

The true Mother Nature is back: Storyline, Art Action and Character [Character developments:] well we have these two fishermen fishing at Loob Lake which is fine based on their is a sign that says catch and release only all in capitals [with a fish underneath; and there are some other words underneath like thank you; there is more but we don't have a clear camera shot.] But let's just say these fishermen are breaking that rule.

They should really take a look behind themselves, don't worry it isn't Jason Voorhees on a vocation from Camp Crystal Lake as these vines come out of the water and quickly and efficiently take care of them as the viewers see Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy slowly rising/walking onto land.

What we have here is both a negative but also a positive situation where negatively speaking it puts all the other character developments to shame minus Beth Kane/Alice, because within two episodes roughly they have established Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy in every way possible even when she was being held where she was being held, it just really hammers home if or when the people working on this TV program want to they can establish something/someone with all-round purpose and presentation without their agenda of basically wokeness. And for those quick mouths people; yes I am aware that Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy is an Doctor; expert in botany, toxicology and genetics,. eco-warrior and a lesbian. I have never had problems with people from different walks of life being represented on TV or film or others, but how can I put this nicely firstly I don't like things being rammed down my throat and secondly Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy is an adult meaning the list I have just listed are components of her which makes her; her which consequently makes her a lot easier to settle down with as it relates to a viewing experience. So on to the positive [yes I know I have inadvertently covered some of the positives.] But however the positives are at least now it isn't just Beth Kane/Alice and Dr. Hamilton/Poison Ivy caring this TV program we now have Dr. Isley/Poison Ivy.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good: this episode comes up mostly all green.

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/dehydrating/medical/environment/impaling/stabbing/electrocution

And when things couldn't get any more complicated this happens: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Action and Art; these combined in one way or another; the viewers get given now and again the back story and relationship between Renee Montoya and Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy. This is informative, clean and tidy, consequently because of this it is a smooth rotation between the past and present, beginning scene with scene beginning and after a little time "Ten years ago" all in capitals appearing on the screen.

Wilder/Batwoman Montoya and Moore are searching for Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy somewhere lowdown and well hidden [yes I know where, but I am choosing to leave this out, based on that would be given too much away of this episode.] But I can say from the art perspective, they made Dr. Pamala Isley/Poison Ivy look great and the same can be said for her holding place; they really did put in a lot of effort and time here with the smallest details on her and her holding place.

This episode receives: 6/10, this episode is good; I just have this feeling from now on until the end of this TV series, it's just going to be a case of a mixed bag from the sense of in this case there are enough good flowers in this bunch over the ones that are either wilting or dying or dead.

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical

I only interest in Beth Kane/Alice and Dr Hamilton/Poison Ivy: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Art and Action; so this review is going to be obviously about this episode, but just to change things up a little I was thinking I would shine the light on other things mostly away from these two characters, but at some point I will be bringing them up.

I don't care, no seriously I don't care about Wilder or Wilder/Batwoman situation or situations involving her biological family or the situation with Moore and the fact that she can't keep her underwear up and focus on what she needs which was Beth Kane/Alice; yes I would be exactly the same if this was a man done this kind of thing as well.

Dr Hamilton/Poison Ivy summons these many vines to keep Wilder/Batwoman in place whilst she and her stepsister [Beth Kane/Alice] escape in this RV; yes this may be a small sequence of events, but it is all good.

This episode receives: 5/10, this episode is mixed; I can tell you the remaining episodes of this Third and Final Season are generally speaking based on here now are going to be very difficult to watch without me getting outraged at some point about something or more than likely somethings

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/disfigurement/transformation/torture/burning/hanging/suicide

The seeds of truth grow deep, finally blossom long and strong: Comedy, Character [Character developments,] Art and Action; all of these components combined in one way or another. Straight off the bat I could only pick 4 other things to discuss so I had to miss out the storyline, as it relates to the comedy it holds greater importance; in the Batcave; we have Dr Hamilton handcuffing herself to this heavy looking Batcave computer hardware [Wilder and Fox turn round with Beth Kane/Alice roughly standing a little distance behind Wilder's back but has a clear view to this dialogue exchange between Wilder and Dr Hamilton.] Where Wilder asks "What are you doing? [As Dr Hamilton completes handcuffing herself] where in a nutshell she gives this logical response, but however you are listening out for "I am a threat to everyone" because as she lay she says this you see Beth Kane/Alice from where she is standing mouthing and pointing to herself "So am I" so even after this really drammatical dialogue/speech we still have Beth Kane/Alice breathing out and looking at her cuticles and giving off the impression " This is no big drama or worry, I have been mentally unstable four years." With her putting her hand down and looking as this is a daily occurrence; considering she has spent quite a lot of time at Arkham Asylum this sadly may be true as she is looking out of the camera shot for something more interesting.

Now sometime later we have Wilder/Batwoman and Fox/Batwing entering Gotham City Botanical Gardens which has quite recently had mother nature give it a hand to grow moving on a little we see this duo individually get the manure kicked out of them by this new super villain by the name of Poison Ivy better known as Dr Mary Hamilton.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is lots of fun; now once again it is down to Beth Kane/Alice to be the driving force in this episode, without giving too much away but finishing off this review she is a comical genius and then you have the impact of Dr Hamilton/Poison Ivy II and finally it is really good to see Wilder/Batwoman and Fox/Batwing get some justified boot to posterior treatment.

DC's Batwoman [Season 3,] Episode 43: A Lesson from Professor Pyg by AverageMansReviews

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/slashing/stabbing

I am absolutely delighted that this is the Third and Final Season: Storyline, Action Comedy and Character [Character developments:] generally speaking the storyline is mostly tediously boring, you see once again for 95% anything around Beth Kane/Alice is good; as Moore and Alice watching in black and white scary old movie they hear something on the balcony; they get ready to confront the intruder they both pick up an empty drinks bottle Moore notices the empty bottle that Beth Kane/Alice picks up is/whispers " You drank my pinot? I was saving that." Beth Kane/Alice: "I'm sorry it didn't have your name on it" [with Beth Kane/Alice whilst responding laying a finger on the bottle] Moore: it's my damn house assume everything has my name on it. Beth Kane/Alice:" SHH!" [With the same time a arm extension and hand gesture in front of Moore to be quiet] Do you want the pathetic slasher to hear us?" Moore: [with a highly frustrated quietness inner voice/with a quick point forward/walking forward] she says on three and does this countdown and then they pulled back the curtains to reveal it is only Wilder/Batwoman; there is more to this scene but I will stop here.

Then sometime later we have this dialogue exchange between Beth Kane/Alice and this is where the 5% comes in, because it just reminds me how horrible this TV program can be where they can talk put B.L.M and LGBTQ+ on the same level, but when it comes to mental health under the bus again and again and again [yes I have a mental health illness] where Beth Kane/Alice is in short asking Dr Hamilton [yes a licensed doctor for help and not only that her stepsister for help] she gets this response " You reap what you sow Alice. All of those murders, the pain, the misery, that you've inflicted, they were the seeds, that you planted for the garden you will be buried in." [With Dr Hamilton scratching her arm and walking away from Alice but still in Dr Hamilton's Clinic] with Beth Kane/Alice saying "Got it." [With Beth Kane/Alice looking a mixture between hurt and how many more times am I going to get reminded of this?"]

I don't mean to keep bringing this up when it is appropriate, but Beth Kane/Alice is not completely to blame here, she from a very young age had to just survive, so yes I am very much aware she is not completely innocent also but once again she is struggling because of another person has done to her [Fox/Batwing injected her with nano bots] which has increased her mental instability fervour more to breaking point.

Oh Dr Hamilton you may as well wipe your posterior with your Hippocratic Oath when you next go and have a dump, because essentially this is what you have done in this dialogue exchange, by breaking it by her personal feelings and judgement dictates who she helps or in this case who she doesn't you cannot choose, unless there are grounds for the person being aggressive then you can decline, but that is not the case here. Do you know what I find funny yet really, really sad is after this situation Beth Kane/Alice in the same scene with Dr Hamilton actually helps her stepsister by giving her an answer to her scratching problem.

This episode receives: 4/10, this episode is mixed; well as I have already referenced to Beth Kane/Alice saves the day as it relates to my interest in this episode.

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical/breaking

Beth Kane/Alice; “I got it. Its the Bee Gees of course it is them.": Storyline, Characters [Character developments,] Comedy and Action these combined in one way or another; Beth Kane/Alice works out who are behind this; [where she says the dialogue I have named this section after/where she gets off this medical bed in Dr Hamilton's clinic after doing some research on this stolen mobile which belonged to Moore's younger sister Jordan.] Where Moore: "Did you take my sisters phone?" Beth Kane/Alice:" Oh. Yeah. Mu. You're welcome." [More takes the mobile from Beth Kane/Alice] with Dr Hamilton:" For critiquing her taste in music?" Beth Kane/Alice: [looking happy and confident with the body language and mannerisms to match throughout the rest of this scene] "No for solving all your little mysteries. Who kidnapped Jordan, who's experimenting with the freeze for my formula. Same answer [which she says the next bit in a quieter drammatical tone looking at Moore] The Black Glove Society. [As to imply this organisation are a massive deal and should be respected and/or feared; but all she gets from Moore and Dr Hamilton is absolutely nothing but silence.] So Beth Kane/Alice tries again with facial expressions and mannerisms including a hand every time she says something like their acronym " The BGS" or "The Bee Gees" [Moore looks at Dr Hamilton; standing next to Beth Kane/Alice with a frozen Jordan on a medical table to imply; "I don't have a clue who or what she is talking about do you?" With this picture of absolute frustration on Beth Kane/Alice's face to imply you should know who this organisation are based on the grounds you used to working for The Crows?!.] Beth Kane/Alice [mentally/body language "Okay I give up." and puts her hand down and starts telling them about The Black Glove Society [there is more to this scene; but I have discussed it enough.]

Briefly sometime later; we get Beth Kane/Alice and Moore vs. Members of The Black Glove Society [including not leader of this organisation but must have been someone reliable to fulfil this contract and cleanup operation; Virgil Getty.]

This episode receives: 5/10, this episode is mixed; I know I have made this a repetitive thing over these Three Seasons in some capacity [including her stepbrother; Jonathan "Johnny" Cartwright/Mouse when he was a part of this TV program in some way in Seasons 1 and 2,] but once again Beth Kane/Alice continues to be the glowing positive of this TV program by absolutely unlimited miles.

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/medical

Beth Kane/Alice seems to be under the weather: Storyline, Character [Character developments,] Comedy and Action; these components combined at one point or another; because of what Fox/Batwing injected her with Nanobots to tracker wherever she goes;  Beth Kane/Alice is now playing with comical portrayal of ill.

She even takes a hostage [Nora Fries; the wife of the now dead Dr Victor Fries/Mr Freeze]  which basically she threatens to kill her with a surgical scalpel knife to her neck if her stepsister Dr Hamilton doesn't help her, but maybe Beth Kane/Alice should have chosen a better hostage to use as a bargaining chip as you will soon read; yes I understand the serious nature of what is coming up next, but however there is a dark comical tone in it as well Mrs Fries says [with a small grin appearing on her face momentarily with these words slowly but with meaning/conviction coming out of her mouth "Let her with" [with Dr Hamilton and Beth Kane/Alice looking at her and saying " What?" With Mrs Fries having her moment in the spotlight and actually her making a choice in her life with "I am so sick of people sacrificing their lives for me... my husband and my sister, the research, the lost years, the desperation, for what? So I could be trapped again?" Beth Kane/Alice:" So you want me to kill you? With [Mrs Freeze nodding and smiling in agreement] with Beth Kane/Alice continuing: "Could you be a worse hostage." [ With Beth Kane/Alice having the facial expressions and mannerisms to  indicate firstly a sprinkling of a middle range teenager attitude throughout; anoints at Mrs Freeze and then secondly "Well that didn't work" and finally  putting surgical scalpel knife down on the side.] There is a little bit more to this scene/sequence, but I have put enough in this review.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is lots of fun; don't get me wrong it doesn't have the best beginning, but it does get better and better the more you watch of it.

Review Time:

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/feeling/transformation/electrocution

I genuinely feel like I am going around and around in circles here: Storyline Character [Character developments,] Comedy and Action these all combined in one way or another; what am I meant to do with this? We just have the same problems time after time from the First to this Third and Final Season; why oh why do they continuously try to go with the narrative that Beth Kane/Alice is this bad person? Granted she does bad things, which in some cases are unacceptable but however they either make sense or from her life experience makes sense as she will show in this episode at a point [I should point out; I don't condone everything she does.] But because we have been with her from day one of this TV program it makes everything feel natural such as empathising with her on top of that she is comical in this episode as well so in a strange way she is endearing. Beth Kane/Alice seems to be the only one with a sense of humour; in short Montoya is laying down the ground rules to her being released into Wilder or/and Wilder/Batwoman responsibility " Yes. Does this wreck my ensemble?" [Referring to ankle tag] and then later on we have her doing combat with Fox/Batwing.

This episode receives: 6/10, this episode is good; but the big problems with this episode and potentially this season is they are trying to manufacture character developments/on-screen chemistry between other characters which I either don't care for or they are just very generic [I am just trying not to break my 3 to 5 things about one episode, but also explaining my reasoning for this episode marking] and yes I will probably cover these character developments/on-screen chemistry at one point or another, I just can't do it here and now.

5 things about this episode

Warning: there is flashing/other effects/drugs/medical/strangulation/cutting/stabbing

Liam Crandle/Mad Hatter is/was a complete waste of time: Trailer; you may want to read this first; Average Extra of: DC's Batwoman 2019 Season 3 Trailer Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2021/10/average-extra-of-dcs-batwoman-2019.html to make better sense of what I am saying here, Storyline and Character [Character developments;] these three components in one way or another combined as you will see/read. Now it is a very good thing I don't put out and out adult language in my content, yes I do put softer versions of what I mean but no adult out and out bad language.

So here and now this is just a shower of manure; to begin with why oh why did you/they put so much time into advertising Crandle/Mad Hatter in the Season 3 Trailer when on some research he is just in one episode and that is it/this is it right here I know I had my reservations about him in the Trailer blog, but this is just ridiculous IReally didn't see this coming as this link would suggest/back me up, it just makes the show runners look stupid and like I have already said in the connecting blog [this is just an excerpt from the blog] "The thing is I would deem this trailer for this new Season to be a gigantic failure. Because there is nothing minus Beth Kane/Alice situation and presents in this trailer that says to either new viewers or even returning viewers "I must either catch up on this so I know what is happening so I can watch this new season." Or "I must put this on series link so I can watch it.""

This episode receives: 3/10, this episode is poor; I mean don't get me wrong there are some good things like everything around Arkham Asylum and to see Beth Kane/Alice get the last laugh for once actually it is because of her getting the last laugh this episode received another mark and there is only one other good thing about this episode, but I will not discuss it but I was just pointing out I am aware of it. I was thinking because I was running out of things; basically 3 to 5 things about one episode I would balance it up in this section, so on one hand I didn't break the rule, but I acknowledge there are some good things in this episode, but having said that there is this massive counterbalance of piles of manure, but don't worry I have this feeling we will have plenty of time to cover most of this in some capacity in this Third Season or maybe a more apt name should be Turd Season. Yes I am aware that this is just one episode, but mixed in with the trailer [It has just come to me; in hindsight what they have just done with this trailer is on the whole minus other bits and pieces to do with the Season; they have just advertised this first episode and not this Third and Final Season; this is just laziness] and this episode it will have to do something major to get me back on side and quick, but of what I've seen so far they are just going to make this whole experience as in when war whenever they want to just let everything hang out, because this is just the Final Season so why bother anyway.
