Is anyone else still watching this? I think it's been really good this season, and the "red band trailer" they released for Thursday has me stoked.

Gotham is my secret guilty pleasure. Love it. I think the show has improved over the seasons as it has embraced its crazy, batshit side.

I love Robin Lord Taylor as the Penguin, I love the Riddler, and the kid playing young Bruce Wayne is great. And yes - Professor Pyg hs been great this season and the "red band" trailer kinda perfectly captures the show.

Robin Lord Taylor is so good. He brings so much depth to a psychopath that I find it very impressive.

I love how the characters have developed over the seasons, and the best thing that happened to Barbara was going off the deep end. I really disliked her in season 1, but I find her really fun. And I really hope that Solomon Grundy/Butch and Tabby can work it out.

Yeah, season one Barbara was a bore. I'm not sure how I feel about the back-from-the-dead Babs this season, though she was fun in last week's episode (because she was more like season three Babs, which is my favorite Babs).

Grundy is fun, but there isn't much to him, so I hope some bit of Butch is still in there and Tabitha didn't beat it out of him last week.

Really, I feel like the one weak spot is Jim Gordon. I just can't get behind him as a hero of the show.

Sofia Falcone has been a great addition as a villain this season, and they've written it fairly well. Just as I was thinking she was getting away with manipulating Oswald too easily, he picks up on her act, promising to upset the dynamic a bit.
