Gotham - This show got unexpectedly good
It was a hot mess most of last year.
But this season they got rid of Fish and focused a bit more on the kid and a consistent narrative.
Based on last year, I would have said any second spent on the kid was a mistake but he's been knocking it out of the park this season. I can actually see that kid growing up to be Batman.
I'd say it was a solid B+ half-season.
No need to see Season 1. You could jump in now at the beginning of S2 if you so choose.

It has problems, but for a network show I think it's pretty good. Also, I am not a big comics purist so I don't care about the canon. I did hear, however, that Gotham doesn't have the rights to use/say/portray Batman? Is that true?
I guess they want to keep that "property" for major films. Too bad. I'd love to see what the young guy who plays Bruce would do with it. I think he's quite a fine actor. I also like Alfred.
Forgot about Donal Logue. Love his acting
I give Gordon 3 episodes before he's back at GCPD.
My husband and I are a little ways into season 2 and it's pretty good. I had told him
I was going to watch through season 1 with him and then I was done. Then they found the remote that opened the fucking fireplace and we started season two immediately LOL. NOT a fan of fish moody anymore - I enjoyed her in the beginning - I'm glad her days are numbered. The kid is awesome; as is Alfred! Jim Gordon is good but I really love Harvey. He's great!!
And @akritenbrink given her temperament, Fish Moody could have been an even better name for Jada
