>>77066614I love Gotham, it's usually a realistic show that has great depth and fantastic characters.
It has two problems in my opinion, and I think this is these are the reasons people hate it.
>Reason 1 While it's a realistic show, every once in a while it'll do something fucking weird, almost like the fact that it's a comic-book based show is fucking with the realism of the show. It reality warps everything. Like having Fish chop her own eyeball out with a fucking spoon, or having a mad scientist head-transplant a mans head onto the body of a woman for shock value
Or having Gordons ex-girlfriend turn into a psycho-bitch for absolutely no fucking reason at all.
Which is funny because she was supposed to be this portrayal of how lesbians or bisexual women are normal, and now she's nuts.
Not to mention the stupidity we recently saw that involved Butch getting his hand chopped off and just taking it like a good boy, and we're supposed to accept that because it's explained in one or two phrases that Zsasz brainwashed him?
That's lame.
>Reason 2It suffers from dragging out characters too much when they should just GTFO. Barbara is a half-example of this, but they could have had her leave the city for a while and then come back to Gordon.
Fish Mooney is the prime example, she needed to stay dead, and it took too fucking long.The only reason she stayed for so long was because her contract didn't allow for that.
She defeated a mad scientist, all so she could get her ass handed to her by Penguin again, it was pointless.
and even now we're hearing rumors about her return. Fish was named Fish for a reason. Because Penguins eat Fish. She was a great character, but has to stay dead. Same thing with other Gotham characters. The corniness is completely ridiculous.
