Birds of Prey (Season 1)

Birds of Prey (2002) is a comic-book action series you can watch online on iFILM, set in a New Gotham that Batman has long since abandoned. With him gone, three women keep the city from falling apart.

Helena Kyle is the daughter of Batman and Catwoman — a bartender by day, a super-strong vigilante called Huntress by night. Barbara Gordon, once Batgirl, now runs the operation from a wheelchair as the all-seeing Oracle. They take in Dinah, a teenage runaway whose psychic gift is just waking up. Their enemy is Harley Quinn, who has swapped the clown makeup for cold ambition and a plan to own the city, while butler Alfred Pennyworth keeps a quiet eye on things.

Based on the DC Comics title, the show ran a single thirteen-episode season on The WB and survives mainly as a curiosity for Batman completists — not least for its Harley Quinn, years before the character became a household name. Worth a look if you collect every corner of Gotham. Stream all episodes of Birds of Prey online on iFILM.
