I actually fast forward through the whole Bruce segments of the show, I just can't give myself enough to care. I prefer to treat this show, not as part of the Batman Franchise, just a cop show with really flashing ways to kill and in shitty city. It makes things easier.

Internet seems to be throwing a lot of flak at this show and I can't seem to understand why.
All characters are lovable or at least likable (give it time and I bet even Fish will grow on me somehow) and the story is progressing smoothly. i had to search for who the bully was, good to see Brucey getting his fists up but he better be careful not to blow his future cover. |

I also liked the discussion between Gordon and Essen where they were naming off the interesting criminals they've encountered so far and asking themselves "What changed?" I gotta say, that's an interesting way to apply for a job in finance. Endless "Office wars" Soul

It's really the love triangle angle that's more in focus. The lesbian angle was dealt with in just 1 or 2 lines in an earlier episode. And I don't think it negatively affects the part about being a detective anymore than being a jealous heterosexual would, especially after last week's episode.

It does, because Montoya as a character hasn't been developed as a detective, or even as a woman in other aspects of her life other than her being still in love with Gordon's GF and been played by Penguin precisely because said petty prejudice against Gordon, and now with today's episode it just makes it even worse...

I like how Harvey Dent is already showing signs of Two Face. Calm, scary angry, calm. Also, I liked the choice of ringtone for the car bomb.

I seem to recall in one of the old Batman cartoons, Montoya was basically one of the few named female police officers in Gotham City. She seemed smart, but we rarely saw her in action, as seemed to be there mostly to lead the female criminals off in cuffs. Her being a lesbian didn't come up much, if at all until maybe reallty late in the series, were if was implied by her being with some other woman in a hospital that was wounded by whatever was the villan of the week. But that was 15 or 20 years ago.

The little girl playing Selina looks like she could be Michelle pfeiffer's daughter. She does need to be toned wayyyyy down...I like her though. I'm not a fan of the butler. I adore the Riddler and penguin of course.
I'm not sure about Harvey as they just introduced him but so far I'm just 'eh' with him. He seems a bit unhinged for someone whose suppose to be somewhat similar to Gordon at first. :l |

I seem to recall that Harvey always had issues with his other side, just they were more suppressed before the accident that wrecked his face. "Big Bad Harv" came out when he was stressed and angry.
At least that is what I remember.

I think they could have held off any outbursts from Harvey. Sure have it be something that he's dealing with, but seems like you could even build up to that. Instead of going "wink wink it's Two Face!"
Kind of feels like the show is so afraid it's going to get cancelled it's rushing every guy who will become a Batman villain into the series while they are still on the air.

I don't really think its going to be cancelled, it is doing really well except for a few things and few people (Fish is one of them). But I think people say the same thing about Arrow when it first came on but look what happened since then.
