If I recall, the usual Solomon Grundy has impressive regeneration abilities. Him growing his hand back should've been a non-issue. I gotta say though, he seems pretty...underwhelming. Basically a big, not particularly muscle-bound guy covered in flour. Still, better than a CG Grundy, so I'll take it.

Reminder that Arrow also did a Solomon Grundy in s2 and it was just a mook who was named Cyrus Gold and got dosed with a super soldier serum.

As fast as they set that whole thing up I'm expecting Penguin to just hold a meeting of bad guys and start handing out super villain names and costumes

That's pretty much how it happened in the comics, though.

That would be going full Guild of Calamitous Intent.

Maybe the twist for this series is that it's actually a live action Venture Bros. and not Batman at all--it's just a bunch of coincidences, that's all. Totally unintentional.

I'm a bit disappointed in how much they toned down Professor Pyg, but still liked the episode overall. Victor is still amazing, but I gotta roll my eyes at Lee STILL being around.

No idea how there are two professional actresses with the same goddamn name though. Usually one of them has to use something different to stop confusion like this.

It's not even a common name either.

It's a "no my son is also named Bort" situation.

So what silly reason are they going to use to explain why Ivy suddenly changes appearance again?

I had to look it up, but I thought the song that they were drinking to might have been older than the kids themselves. For some reason I thought it came out in the late 90s, but Spifire came out in 2005.

Speaking of, the establishing shot between Headhunter getting shivved and Bruce partying down showed a building with a giant green Q on it. Is that an actual building? Because my first thought was Queen Consolidated. I know this show isn’t much into establishing a larger DC universe, I just thought it would be a neat touch.

I feel like this show is starting to take itself too seriously (Typing even though literally a dude shot in the head without a hand was reborn in the swamps with a hand). Hopefully someone knows what I mean? It's like it's being serious and silly instead of silly and serious. I still like it but give me another Army of Penguins scene or something every once and awhile please, there's no fun, goofy surprises anymore.

I dunno, I feel like the whole "Riddler is stupid" situation fits the bill on that.

One thing that I think is kind of a flaw this season is the plots are getting a little too spread out. Everyone is off doing things that are barely connected to each other anymore.

Gotham EMTs are worse than its cops. They didn't notice that guys injuries were fake?

I did like the cop at the end telling the criminal they're not accepting the licenses anymore.

The pig guy was the EMT, not the hurt cop passenger.

Edit: Actually not, I'm an idiot. I got thrown because the establishing shot with the phone call shows a guy on the bed in the back and completely forgot him taking off the bandages.

I got the impression that Pyg actually stuck himself, just not seriously. I mean, they showed something sticking out of his chest.
