Or Vanessa Gomez or whatever.

But apparently since they premiered the show at San Diego this past summer... they've completely scrapped it, removed the insurance company angle... and now everyone's an employee of Wayne Enterprises instead?

WB literally panicked and brought Batman to the rescue. As they do in everything, ever.

Well, I didn't see Gotham lasting past the first season either, but nobody's pulled the plug on THAT tragedy yet, so... :trolleye:

I don't know why they didnt make it Wayne Enterprises in the first place.

The insurance angle is funnier, honestly.
Plus it leaves room for incompetence in the higher-ups, something that wouldn't likely be tolerated at Wayne.

I have no interest in this show. I bet it will be cancelled before its first season is over. NBC only wants Law n Order and Chicago fire shows. Also **** NBC those assholes screwed Constantine 6 ways to Sunday (never promoting it putting it on fridays at 10pm aka a death sentence) I will never forgive them for that. A good show lost to the morons at that network.

Just glad He has seen light in other stuff.

So this is a DC version of Damage Control (http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Damage_Control_(Earth-616))?

I saw the trailer for this way back when it was first announced and my interest was actually piqued by the insurance company angle.

But I guess since it's Wayne Enterprises now, anything that appealed to me has been scrubbed away. Can't wait to see how far the ratings drop each week.

if its anything like the last DC show NBC had they will barley advertise it and stick it on a night that does horrible for ratings

You know...who's to say the Superhero Insurance isn't some division of Wayne Enterprises...

Nobody, but the revised synopsis indicates that what the characters are doing at their jobs in this have nothing to do with insurance or claims of any kind:

"... Director of Research & Development for Wayne Security, a subsidiary of Wayne Enterprises that specializes in products that make defenseless bystanders feel a little safer"
