Plots(1)

The origin story of DC’s great Super-Villains and vigilantes explodes on the screen with Gotham: The Series. Brave, earnest and newly minted, Detective James Gordon is partnered with local police legend Harvey Bullock. After the two stumble upon the murder of billionaires Thomas and Martha Wayne, Gordon meets the sole survivor: the Waynes’ intense 12-year-old son, Bruce. Moved by the boy’s loss, Gordon vows to catch the killer. As he navigates Gotham’s corrupt criminal justice system, Gordon encounters gang boss Fish Mooney, a teenaged Selina Kyle/the future Catwoman and Oswald Cobblepot/Penguin, among many other characters on their way to becoming iconic villains. The monumental crime drama tracks Gordon’s turbulent rise through the GCPD and his unlikely friendship with Bruce – a friendship that plays a crucial role in helping the young boy become the crusader he’s destined to be.

Heroes Rise: Pretty Hate Machine (2017) (S03E20) 

English Oh boy, Jim Gordon was in danger again — what a cliffhanger! The tie scene with Dr. Strange gave me a good laugh, but Lee is just an annoying drag on the story at this point. At least Barbara is back to being delightfully unhinged. ()

Heroes Rise: Destiny Calling (2017) (S03E21) 

English Gotham is thrown into chaos as everyone scrambles to find the antidote for the virus. But I was left puzzling over something that even the Riddler might struggle with: how did Bruce, tied to a chair, manage to get a pen from the jacket pocket on the opposite chair? ()

Heroes Rise: Heavydirtysoul (2017) (S03E22) 

English I was hoping for a grander finale, but I'm glad it turned out as well as it did. The hilarious duo of Penguin and Riddler finally got more screen time, which was a lot of fun. However, the over-the-top melodrama between Jim and Lee is really getting on my nerves. I have a bad feeling that the train scene at the end won't be the end of it. And I'm also worried about how many dead characters the creators will bring back next season. ()
