Do you watch the show "Gotham"?

Asked by rockfan (14627points) February 22nd, 2015

It’s an extremely hit or miss show, but I absolutely loved Cameron Monaghan’s performance as The Joker. Your thoughts?

I enjoyed S1—thought it was extremely inventive—but I think there must be a whole new crew of writers for S2. It’s turned awful.

I watched it for a season and a half, and gave up on it. I really wanted to like it, but couldn’t find a reason.

The background orchestration made that scene as much as Monaghan did. Unlike the two posters above me, I’m liking it more, rather than less. I really like the slow building of the character development of Bruce, Selina, Alfred, and The Penguin. I’m not a fan of Fish Mooney, although it’s brilliantly played by Jada Smith.

Cameron Monaghan is also on Shameless. It is probably the best horrible show on TV. As for Gotham I tried watching but it didn’t work for me.

I am a Gotham fan. Unlike ABC’s two comic book based series, it continues to hold my interest. However, ABC/Disney’s remake of classic children’s tales turns me off.

I thought Gotham was about as subtle as a kick in the nuts. The endless parade of villains before they became such was so tiring. “Hey look at me i have a god damn ? on my mug, bet you cant guess who i am!?!”

The sad thing is there was potential for a good show here, if it instead focused on just GCPD and the gang, specifically penguin’s rise to power I think it would have worked. Insead we get ridiculous scenes with little Bruce and Selena.
