I was looking forward to watching this show, it should have been right up my ally. I watched the first episode and was not impressed. The second episode I tried while I was a little tipsy, which I still am, but it did not help. I did not like the acting and there was to many cliché […]
I really wanted to like this show. Flash, the fastest man alive, I remember him as a cool superhero and I could barely wait until his new show was released. However, I am sad to say that the show so far has not lived up to my exceptions.
Four episodes might be to few to tell if this show is going to be any good or not in the long run, but if even if it keeps only a fraction of the quality it has shown so far it will still be a show worth watching. Its not an origin story of Batman the same way Smallville was of Superman. It might show some of the reasons why Bruce Wayne later becomes Batman, but he is not the main character in Gotham. It`s more a story about the city itself, its criminals, corruption and how Commissioner Gordon's earlier days as a homicide investigator was. I really love superhero stuff, so I might be a bit biased in my views, and I`m not into the comic books so I cant say anything about how it compares to the.
I remember I read my first Sherlock Holmes book when I was around ten, and from that day on I have been a Sherlock fan. When I herd BBC was creating a modernized version of Sherlock Holmes set in Contemporary times, I was stoked. A modern day Sherlock would be so cool. I was curious to see if they could compete with all the other crime shows with main characters that is a kind of altered version of Sherlock. Luckily for me, and probably for you, they managed to do that.
