I mean they had justice league and Superman vs Batman going at the same time as CW’s Superman so I don’t think it would matter

And besides...WHO CARES!
This ain't Marvel. These shows aren't tied to the movies like them. DC has freewill to launch different versions of their characters without affecting each other.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they cancel this show and go straight to a Batman show like they’re doing with Superman. Considering DC is embracing the multiverse I wouldn’t mind it.

The show has potential. They mucked up by continuing to highlight the fact she's gay, more than the plots.
Aside from that...the show is good. Alice is great villian. I like how they brought in Hush

Good.
She should've never been cast in that role to begin with.
Been saying this for the longest, but it's not a good look when the main character is the worst part of the show.

They already did.
It was called Arrow.
They probably don't want to do an official Batman series because they're afraid it would diminish the Batman movie franchise.
Ruby Rose wanted off Batwoman — and no one was going to stand in her way.
Although the actress’ sudden, surprising departure from The CW superhero drama after just one season was framed on Tuesday as her choice and her choice alone, sources confirm to TVLine that the split was — at best — a mutual one.
“It wasn’t 100-percent her decision,” concedes a source close to the show. “It was a breakup. She wasn’t happy working on the show, and did that make her fun to work with? No. So everyone decided it would be in the best interests of the show, and for all concerned, if they parted ways. It just wasn’t a good fit.”
According to an insider, Rose — coming off the features John Wick: Chapter 2 and The Meg — was distressed by the long hours demanded of a lead TV role and did not acclimate well to life in Vancouver (where the show shoots). Batwoman marked the actress’ first full-time series gig, following her debut as the Scarlet Knight in the Arrowverse’s December 2018 “Elseworlds” crossover and a short arc on Orange Is the New Black.
Reps for Warner Bros. and The CW declined to comment for this story. Rose’s spokesperson, meanwhile, could not be reached for comment.
In a joint statement released Tuesday, Berlanti Prods. and Warner Bros. Television confirmed that Rose’s iconic role would be recast — and with another LGBTQ actress. “[We] thank Ruby for her contributions to the success of our first season and wish her all the best,” the two companies said. “The studio and network are firmly committed to Batwoman’s second season and long-term future, and we — along with the show’s talented creative team — look forward to sharing its new direction, including the casting of a new lead actress and member of the LGBTQ community, in the coming months.”
Batwoman Season 2, like many returning CW series, is not slated to premiere until January 2021.
Rose landed the role of Kate Kane/Batwoman in August 2018, following a brief search for an out LGBTQ actress to portray the famously gay vigilante. But within a week, Rose had shut off Comments on her Instagram after a wave of backlash.

As long as the LGBT theme overshadows the show.........the show will never reach it's full potential.
The key part I read was her being distressed about the long hours that come with being the lead role. Bitch doesn't deserve another lead role with that type of attitude
