POLL: How Would You Rate The Series Premiere Of GOTHAM?
The critical response to the first episode of Gotham has mostly been very positive, though some fans still can't seem to get on board with a Batman TV series with no Batman! The pilot episodes aired a little earlier this evening, so we now want to get your rating on the series' debut...
With returning favourites like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Arrow being met with open arms and fans eager to see Constantine and The Flash make their respective debuts, it's fair to say that Gotham is the comic book TV show which many have been most wary of ever since it was first announced. Focusing on a young Jim Gordan and his arrival in Gotham City following the murder of Bruce Wayne's parents, the Fox series promises to explore an area of Batman's past we're not all that familiar with as we meet a number of his greatest enemies in their pre-bad guy days.
The buzz surrounding the series has been extremely positive and Netflix even made the unprecedented move of picking up Gotham for the online streamng service before the premiere.
How long Gotham can keep up its premise remains to be seen, because even if Bruce dons the cape and cowl on his 18th, there's still six years of story which they need to tell between then and now unless they do some sort of time jump. That's a long way off though, and for now, we'd just like to hear what you thought of the pilot and to get your ratings in the poll below. Was it a 5* debut or did the moustache-less Jim Gordon do nothing for you? Here's your chance to let us know...
