Man, I don't know about the script or the acting but the loving cinematography. :swoon: The title wasn't lying. Gotham City is the star of this show.

I don't know, I liked "New boy, eh? Good luck, mate."

Actually, I REALLY liked it, that's a great act-out line for the first ever teaser of the show.

This is really bad so far, but I enjoyed the gumption of having corrupt cop pull a bottle of malox out of his ruffled trench coat.

It's like something from an early 70s cop movie.

It's somewhat enjoyable but pretty dumbed down and over the top with "guess who this is!"

To be expected with a first episode I guess.

That, but if it goes the other way, they want to seem hip by hating on the popular show.

And they'll also watch the entire first season.

I admit, I hated Nigma because i cannot stand that hoary old nerd stereotype of the pocket protector and snivling behavior. Other than that, its not been bad so far.

I'm always confused, Gordon's wife is Barbara, but so is his daughter?

Well, in Whoville they say - that his tiny hands grew three sizes that day.

To be honest I think they're going to have to jump forward in time every so often, otherwise it's just going to be another police procedural

I appreciated the Gordon rape faces during that chase sequences. I wish that camera angle would just die; people never look good, interesting, or normal in it.

Echoing what another goon posted earlier about Selina looking like an adult's face with a kid's body. It's weirding me the hell out.

The actress who plays Selina Kyle is a 5'0 15-year-old dancer. She looks much taller and a little older.

treat me like a dog


"I'm Ivy." (hides behind a plant)

"Boy, you sure are a weirdo who likes... puzzles, Nigma!"

"Cool it, Oswald." "Yeah knock it off, Penguin!" "You know I hate being called that!"

etc.

This show is so dumb, it's also kinda fun, but mostly my eyes are rolling out of my head
