It was suppose to be comedic done and satire. I think it would have been funny

Was just about to post this.

Honestly, DC really should push for an expansion of the DC Nation block with some of these less familiar properties.

I always find these shorts to be more interesting than whatever the corresponding characters are doing in comics.

Yeah, I saw this posted elsewhere - very cool.

Though, admittedly, I'm more impressed with seeing a new animated Black Lightning, than anything to do with his daughters. Still, it looks fun.

I think it could work well as a full-length cartoon being a father/daughter/daughter superhero team, a good way to get the family to sit together on the couch.

There is definitely promise there. I'd certainly watch a BL & Daughters show...but being a BatO fan, you know, something like that is what I'd really be fiending for.

Katana's star is rising in the comics and soon in animation; BL just recently made his New 52 debut, and now this... I want more Outsiders.

DC can't do anything. WB animation (or whatever the hell it’s called) and Cartoon Network are in charge of DC animated programs that air on the network (CN).

Nice catch.

A DC Comics Presents type of show would be great,so they could showcase lesser known properties and test the waters on what might work to be expanded into their own shows.

This exactly.
