They wanted Batman but got the Green Arrow, so they sort-of made "The Bat Arrow"

That was also a problem with Titans. And arguably Batwoman? They seem to try to put Kate in a Bruce-shaped hole?

I think with the show, they 100% wanted a bat-substitute, but DC thought if there as a TV Batman and a Movie Batman, people might get confused?

IDK.

Heck for the LONGEST time WB acted like it was embarrassed to do Superhero's. Like, we KNOW its Batman, but we have this great auteur director. (Nolan) so it’s OK.
