There goes another supporting character from season one. They won't have many left if they keep killing them off. I thought Butch was a goner at one point in this episode.

Loved how Silver felt the need to look out the window when she was hugging Bruce. She knew damn well Selina was watching. When two teenage girls get pi$$ed at one another, not even Batman will be able to break up that fight. Did Silver start out as a villain in the comics as well?
Lack of realism aside, this show really knows how to turn it up when it needs to.

In fact I think that Gotham has the best Selina Kyle, Alfred and Penguin that I have seen on TV or film.

Was The Riddler ever portrayed as such a homicidal maniac before? I always thought he was usually depicted as more of a nuisance more than anything.

I don't like how they're turning Bruce into a dumbass.
He blew up the door instead of solving the passcode which was just his damn name.
Now he's just completely blinded left and right about everything going on around him.
Just can't see this kid growing up to be Batman.

Even 13yr old Bruce knows it's all about the pussy...

He's always been one of my favorites and I like the actor playing him on Gotham, but I hope the Riddler doesn't become another Joker-lite.

My hope is we eventually get a reveal that Bruce is a step ahead of Galavan, though I doubt it.

I was a little disturbed by that change. In recent years the Riddler has become an information broker of some kind in the comics, like Oracle for villains. I guess this Riddler will be a crazy psychotic killer.

Hopefully Riddler's split personality is gone for good. He was basically Two-Face for his past several appearances, quite similar to Harvey Dent's "Big Bad Harv" schtick from The Animated Series (Was Big Bad Harv ever in the comics?). And since we already have a future Two-Face on Gotham, it was just odd that they decided to go this route with another one of the major villains.
