Hey, did anyone watch this? I did and thought it was interesting. I really like the main guy (Ben Mackenzie) playing Gordon. He was in The O.C. I like how they're quietly introducing Catwoman. Not sure if I like Jada Pinkett-Smith yet. Never been a big fan of hers. I don't like how quickly things move in this drama tho. Seems like there's not going to be too much character developement. And they've made Harvey Dent kind of a bad guy.....

I did! :) It was good enough to keep me watching. I thought Ben Mckenzie was good, as well! I don't care much for Jada Pinkett-Smith, too=D Seems sort of miscast in this role to me, tbh. I can't wait to see more of the villains, though, like the Penguin, Riddler, Falcone, etc. It's an interesting concept, so I'll stick around to see how the show progresses!

We DVR'd it and will probably watch it tonight. Add me to the list of those less than enamored with JPS. Why is she even popular (except for being married to Will Smith, who I'm not a fan of either)?
Exactly. I think she scares the sh*t out of the entertainment executives and therefore they put her in movies/television shows so that she won't hurt them......;;D

I really like it. I haven't seen this weeks ep yet but the casting for this show is dead on. I enjoy seeing The Riddler, Catwoman, Penguin as their younger selves. Young Batman? Eh, give me the villains!
Yeah, who cares about Batman, when you have all these wonderful villains in the making! I wonder where The Joker is???

Ooooo! I hope he shows up at some point! He HAS too! I also hope that if he does they stay with their spot on casting.

The plan is that (minor spoiler)
every week a "potential Joker" (i.e, someone who is batsh*t crazy) will be introduced to keep the audience guessing. Gotham Will Introduce A Potential Joker Each Week
