Oh hey it's the rape victim from The Good Wife playing a singer

The scene at the end of ep 5 with Falcone talking to the girl about his mother whilst there's a giant phallic monument in the background :lol: Subtle is not this show's strong point

I think this is brilliant. I don't know all the characters so I'm glad when they name drop so I could quickly google it.

The Arrow, Flash, Gotham all having series makes the DC universe so much more appealing than Marvel's.

Episode 6 was easily my favourite so far.

Was nice to see some more of Harvey beyond "gruff, corrupt detective".
Nygma actually getting something to do for a change was good and I actually enjoyed his scenes instead of my usual :roll: response.
Gordon being arrested then Cobblepot walking in and being all "Hi there!" :lol:

My general complaints stay the same though.

The foreshadowing is far too heavy handed. Yes, we all know that Bruce becomes Batman. You don't have to keep reminding us.

And my favourite piece of foreshadowing dialogue this week:

"I came to Gotham to be a cop. But that's not what the city needs." Oh, he means it needs Batman.


As subtle as a brick through a window.

Cobblepot is so good in this, everytime he is on screen he just steals the show.

Enigma wasn't bad either

1x06- Like The AV Club's reviewer I was half-expecting The Court of Owls to turn up by the end of that episode.

Is everyone expected to morph into the characters with time or is this firmly staying as a prelude (i.e. Batman isn't turning up).

I'm expecting batman to be the ending but the show's probably just gonna get dragged out without a definite aim for as long as possible.

Smallville syndrome seems likely

Episode 7

Victor Zsasz! Less of the psychotic serial killer than I would have liked, but when he killed the cop then rolled up his sleeve. 8-)
Hopefully we'll get to see more of him.

Cobblepot continues to absolutely own this show. Loved that he's been manipulating the whole thing from the word go.

I did feel that Gordon was far too quick to trust Harvey.

His plan to arrest the mayor and Falcone was stupid.

Also Barbara coming back. :fp:


So another good episode I thought. It's definitely finding it's feet.

If you take advice from a person who loved Glee than you need strawberry floating help.

It's an excellent show.

I only really liked the first thirteen eps of Glee, it got pretty bad after that.
