I think it could have been an okay cop show, but it's just a few degrees too campy for me to like it. Terrible, inauthentic dialogue that only sounds normal if you don't experience language outside of network programming. It reminds me a lot of Caprica with the ugly stylized 50's thing it has going on, plus everyone they meet in the Pilot is a future character in the Batman mythos.

It has a couple actors from The Wire in it, even though they are in unsuitable roles, so that's always okay.

Robin Lord Taylor as the Penguin is really the only Batman part that works, aside from that, it's a bad cop show with Batman elements forced in.

I unironically want them to rename the show "The Penguin" and make it all about his rise to power, Sopranos-style. Everybody else can be bit players, including the Batman.

The Flash has good powers and it's cool to see how technology has allowed live-action television to finally pull off comic book stories that were only do-able with animation until now. Plus the guy who plays Lt. West is really good and same for the guy who plays Captain Cold and Barry is really endearing and goofy, so I can tolerate a lot of the cheesy writing and corny poo poo.
