Gotham

[MetalDog]

Anyone watching?

[Barthheart]

Yeah. Good start last night. Should be interesting. So far I've picked out Cat Woman, the Penguin(easy since they named him), and the Riddler..... but who is Fish?

but who is Fish?

Entirely new character created for the show.

Was Ivy in the premiere? She's another character that's supposedly going to be part of Gotham.

[Barthheart]

Didn't pick up on Ivy..... doesn't mean she wasn't there though....

Yeah, she was the daughter of the dude who had the pearl necklace in his drug bag.  They called her Ivy and she was fondling her plants when they came in. 

I wonder if the comedian auditioning for Fish will be the Joker.  Hope not.

And who was the big guy that needed the "Pills"?

[MetalDog]

Donal Logue is going to be Two Face, isn't he?  My DC lore is much weaker than my Marvel.

Is his character named Harvey Dent? If not, no.

[mirth]

Logue is playing Harvey Bullock, not Dent. He's going to be Gordon's partner in Gotham.

[MetalDog]

Thanks for the correction fellas.

[Sir Slash]

I believe I'm hooked. Wasn't sure last week, but now I foresee total hookage imminent.

[MetalDog]

I haven't watched the last two weeks.  Forgot last week and remembered this week, but made no effort to turn the tv on.  What is it you like?

[Sir Slash]

Without any spoilers, I like the presentation that you can't really be sure who anybody is, good or bad, except for Gordon and he's conflicted. Some good plot twists in the last episode and I keep thinking I'm gonna see somebody I know from the novels though I'm not very versed in the Batman world. The whole corruption angle is overplayed and gets a little old after a while. Not a lot of action so far and pretty violent for an 8pm show. Very little humor like in the Marvel show. But it's got emotion and the acting is first rate so I'll stick around to see who shows up.

[Barthheart]

Yeah, I like everything Slash just pointed out. I also love the style of the camera work/editing. Very comic book/graphic novel feeling. Humor is more dark than funny.

The corruption thing being overplayed is very comic book as well... at least to me. Lots of intricate plots being developed. Hope they can keep it up.

[Sir Slash]

Another good episode. Plot's getting thick but the conflicted girlfriend's getting thin. And why does everyone in Gotham have to have a fireplace? Is there no Direct TV?
