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.

Gotham (2014) 

English I'm satisfied. The pre-Batman era is off to a good start. The acting is perfect. Gordon is cute, the Riddler will be fun, the Penguin is properly sleazy, Catwoman is very cute, hopefully she'll get more space next time and Fish Mooney looks pretty tough. Gotham is properly dark and gloomy, the brutality is surprising too. The third episode is behind us and it's clear what's going on. The Penguin is slowly getting to his dark side and is starting to be a nice beast, Catwoman has been given more space and is lovely, and I especially like that not only the Penguin but other criminal residents of Gotham are on a rampage in each episode. You really wouldn't want to live in this city! For me, the best show of the year so far. ()

Season 2 (2015) (S02) 

English A great ride for 18 episodes, but the last 4 didn't impress me too much. The creators mixed way too many things with mutated "monster" people, turning a dark crime drama into more of a sci-fi fantasy, which I'm not fond of. Too bad. 80%. ()
