Birds of Prey - The Complete Series (DVD, 2008)

I bought this DVD because I am a huge, life-time comic book fan. I have been reading Birds of Prey comics since they first came out and loved them. Oracle, who used to be Batgirl, I was reading about since the early sixties. Same thing with Black Canary and The Huntress. When I heard about the T.V. show.... I had to watch it!! I loved it!! NO BRAINER!! When the DVD came out...........HAVE TO BUY!!!! Also.....NO BRAINER!!!!
This set contains four discs that comprise the entire series. Also included is the complete web series "Gotham Girls" featuring seasons one through three. The episodes of 'Birds of Prey' consist of 13 episodes including the 'Bonus unaired pilot.' The stars of the show are as follows; Helena Kyle/Huntress - Ashley Scott, Barbara Gordon/Oracle - Dina Meyer Dinah Lange/Black Canary - Rachel Skarsten Detective Jesse Reese - Shemar Moore Alfred Pennyworth - Ian Abercrombie Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn - Mia Sara. The only info I can add to this cast is this: Shemar Moore is currently on Criminal Minds and Ashley Scott was on Dark Angel and Jericho. A few or all of the others may have been on something, but I am computer ignorant, so I didn't try to look them up. This information I am disclosing to you is from my memory and having the DVD in hand.
I thought this T.V. series was following pretty closely to the comic book series. I liked the fact that "The Batman" and 'The Joker' made very brief appearances in the series. Also intriguing is the fact that the Joker's voice is Mark Hamill (sic) from Star Wars fame, but the person you see in the series is a different actor.
Whether you are a comic fan or an action T.V. fan, I highly recommend this D.V.D. I would rate it five stars out of five!!!
This is The Old Hippie with my first review out of hopefully many more to come!

This is a very good set for anyone interested in an alternate tale of Batman in the near future. Harley Quinn is now teh criminal mastermind pulling the strings trying to reign chaos on New Gotham. There is much tragedy and angst and emotional ups and downs. The season was cut short unfortunately with only thirteen episodes. The acting is not great, but it is better than average. I watched this show in prime time, had TIVO'd several episodes and was eagerly awaiting the box set.

I bought the item for a friend. So far they have watched the first disc and loved the plot and the way the tell the past.

the product is in excellent condition. there are no marks and no scratches. i can't find any thing that's wrong about it. the price is right and they deliver it to your home. there's nothing that can beat it. i will by others like that like those again and again. thank you..

This series is loosely based on the comic book by the same name, here the Huntress is Catwoman and Batman's daughter. It was short lived one season only,
the story lines were good, but not great, the acting is also good, but not espectacular, but if you are a comic book fan this a nice addition to your collection, specially with the inclusion of the whole Gotham girls webisodes.

I am really pleased with the DVDs and the series. I was very pleasantly surprised at how quickly the shipment was made and I received it. Couldn't ask for better service.

I grew up on the Batman comics, cartoons, & the movies; so it was a big part of my childhood. This series is a continuation of the Batman legacy. The characters are intense & relates well with the cartoon/comics & the movies. Unlike most TV shows, this one does not deviate from the plot or meaning from which it was based from.

Birds of Prey was a series I made sure to watch when it was on TV. It is so much better than others which has multiple seasons available on DVD. But again I have to say that always preferred Batman, Superman or Spiderman. Great TV but not last enough..

Birds Of Prey was a great series and even though it had high ratings the show was cancelled.

The series follows Helena Kyle(the Huntress)who is the the daughter of Batman and Catwomen in her pursuit of justice on the streets of Gotham.After Catwomen is murdered,Barbara Gorden(Batgirl)takes her in.

Barbara Gordon (Oracle)was Batgirl until the Joker shot her and paralysed her from the waist down.She guides The Huntress through Gotham from the coolest tech center high above the city.

Sadly,only 13 episodes of this series were ever made but what a ride!

Because it was sheaper, and I wanted that movie, so it was a good oportunity for me. I think it was a good transation with this seller

pizazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Though short lived this series was very watchable. Probably a little before its time. The show did keep true to previous story lines from Marvel Comics. This is a great DVD set as it contains the entire series. Three beautiful women fighting evil. Cool. I like it. Being a SciFi buff, is exactly the type of series I enjoy watching.

I LIKED THE SERIES BUT THEY ENDED TO SOON.GOOD ACTION AND STORY.COULD USE BETTER CUSTOM ON HUNTRESS.BATGIRL WAS GREAT.BLACK CANARY'S DAUGTER WAS GREAT.THE SERIES DID CONTINUE IN THE COMICS.COMIC BOOK FANS I THINK WILL LIKE IT.

I love the series even through it was not widely watched because it was put on friday night . Aka death night for new shows its one of the best I've seen so far when I was growing up .

I loved the show, I watched the TV show when it was on years ago. I wish they had made more of this show then and I still wish that now. You never know what was going to happen and you are all was on the edge of your seat to see what would happen next. I was so happy to see this had come out in DVD and could not weight to get it, If they had made more of it I would buy it in a heart beat. They need to make more show like this one. I loved it and the only thing that I disliked about it was that there was not more of it. This was a show that was Funny, Sad and made you think because it put you on the edge of your seat to see what would happen next and that could be anything and you find your self wanting to see what would happen to the people in the story because to come to care what would happen to them because you become so involved in the story and wanting it that you want it to turn out OK for them in the story, You forget what may be going on in your life for a short time because to get so involved in it and that can give you some great time out with you may want to get away from for a little while. We all need a break from things going on in our life from time to time and that when it is so great to be able to put a Great DVD in the DVD Player and get away for a little while. This show is a DVD like that and a must have so get it and have a great time.

I loved this TV show and was really upset when they canceled it. Ever since, I've been waiting for them to release it on DVD. When I found out they were finally doing it, I pre-ordered it on eBay. When I got back from being out of town a couple days after the release date, the DVD was at home waiting for me when I returned. Thank you for the fast shipping and great service!
