I don't think that there is any need for Gotham to be a cable show, Network TV can be dark and gritty when it needs to be and I think the worst thing you could do with Gotham is go too dark. There's a tendency on Cable TV to mistake gratuitous sex and violence for what makes a show adult. Some of the most adult and dakrest shows are on the Networks, a show such as Longmire on A&E deals with far more adult themes and issues than most of what you get on AMC or HBO.

From what I gather Bruce Wayne will be in it as a boy and it will eventually show his development into batman.

no. from what i can make out the show will be watching bruce wayne develop into batman, but well see it through the eyes of gordon, who is gonna be the central character of the show, maybe they might do a smallville and have him be something else in between, like clark was the red and blue blur in smallville, and then in the final episode he finally put on the cape and became superman,

im a bit worried that they are gonna front load the show with to many characters and ruin it,

The show looks to have good potential. Messing with canon doesn't really bother me so as long as the show is actually good, Batman's rogue gallery being in full swing while he's still a child is fine with me.

I haven't really been a fan of these shows previously. Smallville never got my attention, and Arrow, while certainly very much watchable, is a show I wouldn't go out of my way to watch. Both shows just strike me as having this aimed at teens vibe and naff acting, but Gotham seems like it will be gritty. I'm very much looking forward to it.

Was so looking forward to sitting down tomorrow evening and watching this but all that excitement is gone and I'm not sure I'll even bother. Never thought that anything would rob me of my love of Batman and the universe of Gotham City but it turns out that there is.

Nothing like that, just real life stuff has sapped all my enthusiasm for this and most other things.

Just to add, reviews for the first episode are rather positive and while the dialogue isn't all that many feel that it's a good start to what could be a great show. What I was/am most looking forward to is seeing the show tell the story of the city and not just its most famous son.

krudler · 23-09-2014 01:13AM

The dialogue is indeed pretty bad, really simplistic soap opera stuff they'd want to get on upping the game in that asap.

It's ok, nothing amazing, not bad.
Seems like it's trying to cram too many famous Batman characters in at once who all happen to know each other at a particualr point in Gotham's history, didn't feel very organic. Within the first half hour of the show we meet Jim Gordon, Bruce Wayne, Alfred, Falcone,and who will go on to become The Penguin, Poison Ivy, Catwoman, and the Riddler.
It was going to be like this telling a story about Gotham and everything but they didnt need to pile every character into the first episode, stretch it out a bit and introduce them more naturally. I guess it was a pilot and they want to catch people's attention so if they work the other Bat-characters in later with more meaningful arcs instead of cameos and "aha!" fan service it will work.

I didn't realise Danny Cannon was directing the pilot, he of Judge Dredd fame/infamy.
