Give it a chance. The first episode is full.of set up and some needless character plugs but the second upped the grit and violence.
I hope they stick with the cop drama more than comic book stuff.
It is better than Arrow in respect to having significantly less CW cheese.
That said I'll be watching Arrow again. I'm still pissed we don't get a connected universe but I'll tune in. At least it connects with Flash and they are adding more characters.
I still miss season 1 Arrow where Ollie just mercilessly murdered folks and nobody had superpowers.
Is Gotham worth watching? The thing I hate about these shows is that often the acting sucks serious ass.
I just watched the first episode, it's pretty solid and the characters are pretty creepy.
It's definitely not CW level of acting.
The pilot was okay, watching the second now, I enjoy Penguin's set up so far.
Sionis is a definite.
The guy playing Penguin is pretty good.
I was a little weirded out they chose to
make Barbara Gordon a bisexual and have beef with her ex, one of Jim's rival in major crimes
I don't know why CW can have great production values and stories but find some of the worst actors while forcing just cheesy crap in shows that have no place for it.
Every time I watch Arrow I keep expecting a montage of Ollie skipping stones on a pond while Lifehouse plays in the background.
Loved The Killing! I'm with you on the finale. It was pretty incongruous with the tone of the show. But... my wife sure loved the ending.
I'm going to have to give The Knick another shot. The first two episodes didn't really pull me in.
To be honest - I didn't fully take in everything that was going on with that show from the first episode or two. Visually, there's nothing else on TV like it.
Reminds me of a more-visually profound Mary Reilly at times.
The race for invention within the hospital setting takes off in more recent episodes.
I think some folks see the commercial might mistake it for a US themed Downton Abbey but it's much darker than that. Definitely in a Jeckyl/Hyde/Frankenstein vibe obviously without supernatural element as it is based on real people and events..
Niece.
Wife is Barbara too
Love Gotham.....anybody watching Z-Nation ? It's a spoof but entertaining version off another zombie series. They ran into some Amish zombies in PA. ...thought that was funny. Story line and the characters are getting a little better. No where near TWD but keeps you entertained. Resurrection back and seems to be getting more interesting with a nice twist on last show.
Waiting for Vikings to come back on..pretty good series from the history channel.

I love it. Opinions seem to vary wildly though. The first season is the best so far IMO.
