Ruby Rose’s Batwoman seems to be getting review-bombed on rotten tomatoes.
Ruby Rose’s Batwoman kicked off the Arrowverse’s 2019 fall television season with its premiere episode on Sunday night. The series premiere received generally positive reviews and currently holds a 72% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 39 reviews, with 28 critics labeling Ruby Rose’s Batwoman as fresh while 11 selected the “rotten” option.
However, the Audience Score for Ruby Rose’s Batwoman currently stands at 8% based on 2424 reviews, many of which gave the series a one-star rating. While many of those negative reviews may be legitimate, the high number of audience reactions to Ruby Rose’s Batwoman in such a short amount of time suggests the series is being review-bombed on Rotten Tomatoes. For comparison’s sake, The Flash has a total of 801 audience reviews for the entirely of the fifth season.
Ruby Rose’s Batwoman continues next week with the episode titled “The Rabbit Hole” and you can read The CW’s official synopsis below:
LEGACY – Back in Gotham, battling Alice (Rachel Skarsten) and the Wonderland Gang from the shadows, Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) continues to be haunted by the events surrounding her sister’s death 15 years earlier. While the city holds on to hope that Batman has returned, Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) and the Crows up the stakes trying to take down the villainous crew. Kate continues to look to Bruce Wayne’s legacy for guidance as Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson) inadvertently gets pulled into Batwoman’s vigilante heroics. Sophie (Meagan Tandy) and Kate are forced to team up, while Mary (Nicole Kang) finds herself in Alice’s crosshairs. Elizabeth Anweis also stars. The episode was written by Caroline Dries and directed by Marcos Siega (#102).
Batwoman stars Ruby Rose, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang, Camrus Johnson, Elizabeth Anweis, and Dougray Scott. Caroline Dries wrote the pilot and serves as an executive producer alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and Geoff Johns.
