Just caught up with the finale on 5 last night. Decent ending that leaves lots of room to play with the character development next season.

Especially Nygma who is finally in the stages of snapping completely, Penguin doing less grovelling and taking more physical action than before. Could also be interesting with Barbara's storyline as i assume that could go many ways either via Arkham Asylum, joining one of the many criminal gangs, etc, after what she was up to.
Yep, ive really enjoyed Gotham, though as a fan of the Nolan Trilogy, I like to think it could mostly tie up - and the Barbara going nutzoid story jars a bit (being a homely wife in the films). Also the discovery of a secret area under Wayne manor (rather than just a cave) seems a worrying break with the Batman canon. But Nygma is brilliant - and the scene with him losing it was quite chilling actually. Penguin continues to be a brilliant character too

Great episode! Wonder how long till wait for next season!
Announcement said it returns "Autumn 2015" so I think C5 will be showing it pretty close to the US airing. Although that will also mean having to deal with the winter / spring breaks in the US rather than having all 22 episodes week after week.

I sort of watched it over my laptop, did Bruce find a secret place?

Also, Barbara Gordon, WTH, she is a psycho killer?

She isn't Barbara Gordon, she's Barbara Kean.

Barbara Gordon will be Jim's daughter at some point in the future.

I meant Barbara Gordon to be.

Excepting that they're already in Gotham, not married and she's not pregnant, it's a perfect fit for that story line.

No idea - I'm not one of the writers. It doesn't look that likely though.

Sadly things with Lee seem to be too good to last. My guess is she'll be killed off next season which will harden Jim a fair bit.

She landed in water so I assume not.

I quite enjoyed the whole series paperbag

The final episode certainly leaves scope for a second series.

You've seen series one of Homeland? If not, you'll love it.

However, Gotham #1 eye candy award has to go to Makenzie Leigh

She's lovely in the last two series of Stargate SG-1.


The thing with Barbara Gordon to be seems to be a bit of a divergence from the story?

Isn't starting on C5 until next year so I think i'll be torrenting it.

Can't wait to see the progression of the Joker after his teaser in last season. It was a delicious mix of Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger's Jokers to me and that looks brilliant.

The Red Band S2 trailer looks brutal!

FFS, these miserable stty lil channels buying up the rights and then sitting on them for ages, when Sky can give +24 hour broadcasts (simulcast for top HBO content).

tts!!!
