Gotham TV Show

[The Darknight Detective]

I can't imagine how Jim will explain to his daughter how he hooked up with a supervillain.

Yep. Lee would have been almost as problematic to explain, too.

[Immortal Weapon]

Lee has the blood virus to blame for some of her villainy.

[The Darknight Detective]

Lee has the blood virus to blame for some of her villainy.

Definitely, but she still has a lot of baggage there.

[The Cool Thatguy]

Lee has the blood virus to blame for some of her villainy.

Not really. She took it willingly

[The Cool Thatguy]

Barbara Gordon has to come from somewhere. The old theories people used to have that Leslie Thompkins had a daughter and named her Barbara never made sense to me.

Why not just use the post Crisis explanation? Niece that he adopted.

Jim doesn't have any siblings as far we know.

[The Cool Thatguy]

Jim doesn't have any siblings as far we kwill ever bloom now.

Cousin, then? I don't recall them saying that he was an only child, but yeah them not bringing it up before now would be odd.

But that said, why would it matter? Ain't like this will bloom into a Batman series of any kind

[josai21]

Watching this show...

I sincerely hope we one day get a renewal, but the focus being on Bruce. David Mazous is easily the best live action bruce wayne

Yeah, it's more really an easter egg. Especially if Barbara Kean ends up pregnant. A hint of thing to come.

[90'sCartoonMan]

Oh Zsasz, you never fail to entertain. Not sure how I feel about Barbara regaining a bit of her sanity. I guess she looked crazier than others, but now that the city has gone even crazier, she is starting to look normal in comparison. Plus she just lost her best friend.

Yep. Just like Jeremiah is not known as the Joker yet, Ecco isn't called Harley Quinn at this point.

But, as you said, she is this show's Harley Quinn. The proof is in the puddin'.

There are always weird rules with Batman I remember in the mid 00's

You had the Nolan films with Bale and Justice League Mortal being developed with Hammer.

Smallville wasn't allowed to use Batman hence the start of the CW tradition of Green Arrow standing in for Batman.

The Batman wasn't allowed to use Scarecrow (Who there was concept art for), Ra's Al Ghul, or Two-Face because of the Nolan films it's why they created the Ethan Bennett Clayface as their Two-Face stand in.

Once Justice League became Justice League Unlimited Batman rogues were off limits due to the Batman series.

Don't forget no Batman or Bat-characters (except Robin) on Teen Titans.

We saw Jim's uncle in an early season, Barbara could come from his line somehow. Having her matter would be a nice way to close out Jim's story. At the end of the series, he will have a dependent, someone who relies on him. He can no longer be the reckless cop who constantly puts himself on the front lines. He will always want to protect Gotham, but he knows he has to come home to Barbara because she has no one else. That allows him to step back and put faith in a certain masked vigilante.

On a certain someone not being called "Harley", I'd imagine that it's the same thing as the show not being able to use "The Joker". The former is probably set aside the same way as "The Joker".

They could call him The Red Blur.

[Kirby101]

Oh! That's who Eduardo is.

[signalman112]

A Riddler focus episode. Which for the most part I liked.
Good seeing Hugo Strange again.

[numberthirty]

Oh! That's who Eduardo is.

Once that is concrete, we'll get back to that.
