Discussion list for the new WB series "Birds of Prey."
"Birds" is based on the DC Comics series about female crime fighters in Batman's hometown, Gotham City. Devoid of superpowers, Black Canary and Oracle (aka Barbara Gordan, aka Batgirl) work together to fight crime. As an added twist, Oracle is crippled due to an ill-fated encounter with the Joker resulting in a bullet to the spine.
The show stars Dina Meyer (Starship Troopers) as Oracle (aka Barbara Gordon), Rachel Skarsten (Virginia's Run) as the Black Canary, and Ashley Scott (A.I.) as the Huntress.
