Gotham (S1E1) - Series Premiere - "Pilot" - 9/22/2014




Synopsis:

Rookie detective James Gordon battles villains and corruption in the premiere of this action-adventure series set in pre-Batman Gotham City.

Episode 1 of 16

I have mixed feelings on this series but I'm hoping it'll be somewhat decent. Guess we'll find out soon.

16 episode season sounds good for this. This will probably be the first thing that gets watched tonight, then The Blacklist. Lots of stuff tonight. So much competition and barely enough eyes and time.

Yeah had to set the secondary TiVo for this because of conflicts.

This is going to be DVR backlog for me, especially going up against Big Bang and misc sports like MNF and Dodgers/Giants for me.

This is competing against The Big Bang Theory, Monday Night Football, The Voice, Dancing with the Stars.

I honestly can't see this getting huge live overnight ratings. Most people are probably going to DVR it and watch it tomorrow or later in the week. Some of the MNF audience will probably want to see it and by the time the game is over, it's going to be really late.

I'm going to give this a shot. Is a pre-Joker planned for this series? When I see the tv spots, I don't see him mentioned in the villains list.

I've avoided all the early clips/reviews of this one...so I'll be going in blind. I'm not expecting much, but I'll stick around for a month or two, regardless, just to get a feel for the show. I have a feeling I'll bail before Christmas, though - much like I did with Agents of SHIELD.

Agents of SHIELD got much better in the last half.

It's only a 16 episode season and for all intents and purposes, the season will be over by December if they run all 16 straight through. If they take the Holidays off, it could end by early January at the latest.

Yes, I've heard that...but once a show loses me, it's hard for me to pick back up...FRINGE is one of the few shows I left and came back to later...only to ditch it again in Season 4.

Okay, those music video style shots of Gordon running are about to take me out of the show.

All the name dropping and "hey guys this is Batman!" fan service is way over the top.

They are reimagining Batman's origin and I'm not sure what to think about it yet.

It's being rebroadcast I think on either Friday or Saturday. I remember seeing it on my carrier on one of those days (FIOS)
