they did do that prequel season first to give Andy a chance, shame he didn't make it.

Rumors are coming out that it wasn't 100% Ruby Rose decision to leave Batwoman, seems there were some issues behind the scenes that lead to her leaving the show... Of course it's just rumors but given she won't say why she left it does make you wonder...

Well if you think about it recasting happens all the time And sometimes it is actually for the better.

Instead of just recasting Kate Kane they're gonna create a brand new character "Ryan Wilder" to take on the mantle??

This is just HILARIOUS.

If this was a Batman show and the lead actor left, would they write a new character "Dick Justice" to replace Bruce Wayne?!

Granted the CW doesn't really care about comic book lore or fans anymore so this shouldn't surprise me.

Only one season was done... just write it off and reboot the series with an all new story and actress to play Kate Kane... would make more sense...

I have two theories on this

1) Ryan Wilder is taking over the role of Batwoman and Kate (recast) will be back to try to take the role back because Ryan starts to go rogue (a la Batman/Azreal)

2) Ryan will take over the role because Kate was having a breakdown and Ryan will get killed which will bring Kate back.

I like your theories, especially the first one. But there's a good chance you're giving the writing staff too much credit.

Yeah, this show could have been kickass and shown a Batwoman that started out following Bruce's code but then realizes she has to do things her own way and takes a military-like method to crime-fighting, which is pretty much her comic story, but instead it died with all the other CW shows due to their need to make things superficial.

And now it won't even be Kate? Pfft, just let it die.
