Due to FOX5 DC's coverage of the Baltimore Riots, they did not air Gotham at 8 PM. Instead they will show at 11:30 PM. So, don't ask what we though of it when haven't seen it yet
I think the show was leading us or (at least me) to think that the ogre was going to be extremely difficult to kill and that he might actually came back later. So yes it was anti-climatic, three whole shows devoted to a character that is killed in less than a minute. If it had not been for both the Riddler and the Penguin this episode i would have felt bored at the end.
Great episode I can't believe this is the end of GOTHAM City until the fall once next week episode is over. I loved this episode cause of Penguin being such a smart Aśś he's amazing.
Probably my second favorite episode of Gotham. Sadly most of the episodes in season 1 have been disappointing, but at least the final episodes are pretty strong.
The Ogre made the episode for me. Didn't care about anything else. I didn't even care about him, but Milo's portrayal of the character was entertaining. Anyways. the only thing i was looking forward to with this episode was Nygma and i felt very disappointed. The only thing that saved that was the letter that he made. His "first riddle" that made me proud. Everything else bored me. Barbara is still alive, (wish that was taken care of tonight), and besides that letter to Kringle, i'm glad Bruce told Alfred the truth.
One of the Top 3 Gotham episode's of the season. It had the edge, the entertainment and the plot twist we all were seeking.
Milo killed as the ogre and Barbara was slightly enjoyable to watch. The interaction between Gordon and Leslie was interesting. Can't wait to see how Barbara and Jim will come back to each other.
The Wayne story finally moved along and Fox's smooth introduction was quite well handled. I expected only more from the Enygma story. Really hope it will escalate in the finale pushing him far over the board..
the Barbara/Ogre part was so creepy and at the same time boring. Bruce/Alfred great as always. Would be so epic if they gave Thomas Wayne a secret identity. They seriously need to get rid of Kringle and the doctor girlfriend.
Well, that's true, but the way they portray it can take many different forms. I never had a problem with any of the movies. And since it airs on a broadcast network, I would expect less violence than I'm seeing. It has surprised me.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
The final confrontation between Jim and the ogre... A bit anti climatic or am I just being picky?

ReplyDeleteHuh....interesting thought...
ReplyDeletenope definitely not, i feel the same way. I wanted a hero to arch-enemy talk and then the fight and finally GORDON shooting him

ReplyDeleteThe episode was good even though the Ogre confrontation was a tad underwhelming.
ReplyDeleteDid Licious Fox not seem right for the part to anyone else? He seemed less than he should be to me for some reason.
ReplyDeleteThe Riddler, he really IS leaving his life as Ed Nygma behind isn't he?
ReplyDeleteGreat episode I can't believe this is the end of GOTHAM City until the fall once next week episode is over. I loved this episode cause of Penguin being such a smart Aśś he's amazing.

ReplyDeleteThis.
ReplyDeleteI agree but this is probably my 4th favorite Episode. It's stronger in the second half

The violence in this show is really beginning to get to me! It's too much for my taste.

ReplyDeletewhat did you expect? It's Gotham, probably the most criminal city in both reality and fiction.
ReplyDeleteIm wondering how they will deal with Fish departure from the show?...☺...

ReplyDeleteI guess that's what happens when you play a role after Morgan Freeman
ReplyDeleteFinally caught up with the episode, awesome as always and I'm looking forward to the next one
