I mean she's not supposed to be the Joker or anything

Yeah, I like what they are doing with Bruce, so far, and the kid playing him was especially good in this last episode.
BS man kids five and six years old do martial arts now.He is supposed to be one of the best hand to hand combatants on earth.He's already late starting his martial training at 13.He will also have to master free running this will take this little whiner years to learn.Almost all great athelete's start training as a child.Batman is definitely a great athelete.Not only that he will have to be master of hand to hand combat to train his sidekicks.He does'nt have time to bullshit around.

Yesterday's episode was a little bit better, but some things about it seemed really weird to me. The Fish Mooney "seduce me" thing was so random, and both girls had the sex appeal of a paper bag. Making them fight was so stupid and I don't see why any of that stuff was even included in the episode. It had nothing to do with anything. It was obvious that Cobblepot put poison in the cannoli from the start. Why didn't the goons get suspicious when he stared at them while they ate and didn't eat any of it himself? I'm very desensitized to violence, but the murder scenes in this show are unsettling even for me (the guy who was burned alive...). If Fish got less screentime and they turned down the graphic stuff, I think I'd enjoy it more.

No my argument makes sense you are trying to defend bad writing on a bad show.I've been reading Bat's for years he's really supposed to be Batman the minute his parents are killed.Bruce Wayne is just a mask after that.Martial training should have started on the second episode weightlifting running.Detective training and forensics come later it would definitely make this show more interesting.

First episode aired here in the UK last night, I quite enjoyed it and think the show has promise. Highlights for me were Jim Gordon and young Bruce, I think both have been very well cast.
I wasn't so keen on Sean Pertwee as Alfred and the whole 'cockney Guvnor' style he was playing, early days but I hope that passes, he also used the word 'mate' too much.
Interesting but understandable route they are taking with highlighting so many future Bat villians in the first epsisode, I particularly liked the idea of Selina witnessing the murder of Thomas and Martha Wayne.
Just briefly touching on the whole camp thing currently being discussed in here, I have only seen the pilot episode so am probably not best placed to comment yet but initial thoughts are this is nowhere near camp, by any definition.

Yeah...I gotta disagree here.
It would be silly to see him going all Kick Ass as an immediate response to his parents death. Bruce Wayne is supposed to be a bit more withdrawn, focusing inward, studying outward, studying and learning about Gotham and the way the world works. Cerebral long before physical.
Gordon is the "Batman" character in this series, helping to shape young Bruce's idea of justice, and perseverance in a world that is spinning out of control.
Violence is only a tool.
