So, gotta tell you this is a shocker and a disappointment.

Just last night we watched the season finale of "Batwoman."  As life-long "Bat Freaks," my son and I have been all-in on this show from the jump.  And it's been great...mostly because actress Ruby Rose (who plays the title character) is so charismatic.

Well, as the show heads into Season 2, it will be in search of a new lead as Ruby Rose has quit the show.

"This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast," Rose said in a statement. Warner Bros TV is committed to a second season of the show and is on an extensive search for the next Batwoman.

Although no reason was given for her decision, I would be surprised if health was not a major factor after this incident last fall.
