CW developing new series about Robin, the Boy Wonder

[fangirl_says]

-The Boy Wonder on the CW:

The CW is developing a drama for next season about Batman’s sidekick Robin in a project called The Graysons, which will focus on the life of Dick “DJ” Grayson before he teams up with Batman. The Graysons, which could potentially replace Smallville (or be paired with it) will be set in modern times.

Pardon me whilst I vomit. Seriously, Robin isn't a very interesting character by himself, never was, never will be.

I know -- that's why he's the sidekick! Sheesh.

Yes, exactly. If they had a show about young Bruce Wayne, that I would watch until it pissed me off like I know it would, but that would at least be more interesting.
