I imagine the pitch meeting for this series went something like this:
Sleazy producer:What's you got for me babe? *puffs on an illegal Cuban cigar*

Poor writer: How about a show based on the daughter of Batman and Catwoman?

SP: Comics are hot now. The Batman movies all made money. Catwoman was hot in that rubber suit. It sounds good but it can't be just one chick. Everbody will think it is a rip-off of Dark Angel. I don't want Cameron pissed at me.

PR: Well we could have Alfred the butler help.

SP: Nahh. We need to get back to the basics, something like Charlie's Angels. Three hot chicks always sells better than one.

PR: O...K. I guess. We could team her with the old Batgirl and I suppose a young girl, like a female Robin. She could be an orphan.

SP: Fine as long as both of them are hot. We need to update it though. You know, keep it edgy. We'll call It NEW Gotham. The people will be mutants or freaks or something.

PR:*sigh* We could say that they are meta-humans.

SP: Nice, very PC; I like it. The babes are going to be hot though? Right?
