Starting a Revolution (...Five Years Later)

Birds of Prey remains one of the greatest lost opportunities of modern television: take a popular & well-established comic series, hire an attractive and talented cast, give it a reasonable budget, and put it in a decent time slot with little competition after a solid advertising campaign. As long as the writers aren't forced to write stories that alienate the core audience by changing every character and therefore have to scramble for a cohesive storyline, it should be golden.

Unfortunately, the pall that fell over the show wasn't limited to its time on the air: a DVD is unlikely for the forseeable future, Aimee Allen's CD I'd Start a Revolution If I Could Get Up in the Morning (containing the title track from the series) was never released, tATu dropped off the radar for over a year (their song All the Things She Said was featured in the show's climactic battle scene), and two of the actors (Rachel Skarsten/Dinah and Mia Sara/Harley) disappeared completely for a year or more.

Fortunately, it's not all bad news: Ashley Scott (Helena) is now on Jericho, Shemar Moore (Jesse) is on Criminal Minds, and Dina Meyer (Barbara) was in all three Saw movies.

All this rambling leads up to the fact that, after years of trying to get enough information about the car used in the series to build a replica of it, Oracle's Hummer H2 is finally finished. Thanks, YouTube!
