this show is terrible
writers should be forbidden to write anything by law

Why? So far I haven't seen anything really annoying, there's plenty of good actors, kid-Batman's role is very minor...

The assassin with the eye-poke-stick was fucking dumb but meh. I'm a little surprised at how PG it is gore wise, like they basically put all the gruesome bits out of frame, which is a little weird to me given the overall feel of Gotham they are trying to project.

Only thing that's worrisome to me so far is if they don't keep the main plot moving enough, because some of the side stories have been 'meh'.

I think it's like a .. 6.5~ish or so, thus far, which is pretty good for a comic book/sci-fi show.

Dialogues are so dull and predictable. Most of the assassinations are terrible, with your example on first place "oh we live in a city where the crime rates are huge, a random black guy comes to me and tells me to put this thing right in front of my eye and press a button, lets do that seems pretty safe ". There are many illogical explanations they just pass by hoping the viewers wont notice. Obviously I dont expect everything to pass as if its in our reality, but they dont even try to explain it sci-fi way.

The whole approach to the show is as if its meant to be seen by the 12-14yo public and considering how much blood there is I really doubt thats the case in reality

Are we really doing this again? Every TV show bar the exceptionally great ones are predictable to some degree. Turn off slightly and enjoy everything, you're welcome. Dull is dependant on your perspective.

Why does it matter that he's black? Gotham is a ficticious city and most of the villians are white from what I can tell. You could argue it's more likely harmless coming from a black guy but there aren't statistics we can look at and that's not how you should be thinking about this show anyway. Also, part of the charm of that scene was that he lured his targets in and they went along. His weapon was unconventional and it gave us an idea of how he seduced his targets. Perhaps to him it was boring, trivial and repetitive to kill someone with a gun and that unusual weapon and the situations he had to create excited him. Plenty of people aren't logical although you could apply logic to their actions too. You could also say they were drunk or just had a good evening and someone doing something bad to them was the last thing on their mind.

Meh, starting to show some signs of rush work... Penguin's entrance into the police station made like no sense at all, he had no idea what was going on and had no reason to actually do anything.... plus there was 0 follow up.

The Victor character is retarded too.

EDIT: Rest of episode was quite OK tho.

I really disliked the end of the latest ep (7).

I think the last episode was the worst so far.

Only thing I disliked was the girl whatever her name is, running right into Falcone's arms like a complete retard.

i took a look at this and it wasn't utter shit

howevever it's very difficult to start a show well including shows that add to massive franchises

so for instance in the pilot and shit it gets very obnoxious when everyone is doing the "bond, james bond" thing of saying their names so every 5 minutes there's another moment like OH THAT GUY I KNOW HIM but it's just constantly shit like that "James Gordon." "Alfred Pennyworth." "Mr. Pennyworth" "-Alfred." "Bruce Wayne." "Cat."

but the criticism i would have is when all these people keep showing up they potentially take attention away from who i assume the lead is, jim gordon, and the series will need a strong jim gordon to stand on its own, which i think is possible also i really like his veteran partner. also it's supposed to be a prequel, penguin is not bad but kind of fast along with baby catwoman and in addition to all the disposable bad guys it is a bit overwhelming. i mean seems too coincidental to put all these characters together so fast idfk it feels like the show part of the show could be good but a lot of the time is being spent introducing more characters than we need right now and in uninspired ways

if i could use an example from another franchise to quickly explain the problem it is like when R2D2 and C3PO show up in the phantom menace

also the black guy from major crimes reminded me of ainsley harriott he made a troll face in the diner i think

enjoyable tv doesn't necessarily have to be good tv. i think this show is best when it deviates as far as it can from batman/comic book lore much in the same way storm troopers academy found a niche that didn't regurgitate the story lines that have been done so many times before.

personally i don't enjoy this show, i wish they really focused on detective gordon and went more X-files-y and focused on other stories that weren't explored in the batman lore.

but several lpers and a few of my friends have conveyed their enjoyment of this show.

and yes we get to watch bruce's parents die, yet again, in an alley, which we will invariably encounter at least 20 more times before our life is over.

Did not enjoy the show too much. Stopped watching after part 4 or somthing. The Homeland is pretty good this season tho. Can recommend.

The last ep's has been awful, just waiting for the Joker to appear.

Anybody seen Constantine? Its pretty good imho, also Agents of Shield has improved a bit, but still not that good. (The Flash again no comment )
