Gotham & AoS Premiere Reviews

One of the more anticipated series of this season, Gotham, premiered this Monday on Fox. I finally got around to watching it today and am a bit reserved in my reaction. It definitely had it’s moments, but it seems to be a police procedural with Batman characters tossed in to arouse the audience. Don’t get me wrong, it’s cool seeing little Ivy and the rest of the lot, but I think the series is going to need some time to develop if it’s going to be a success. Considering the first season of Agents of SHIELD, it is entirely possible that Gotham runs a similar path and gets exponentially better as the season progresses. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

Speaking of AoS, that series saw it’s second season premiere last night, and boy was it a doozy. We got to see how our team is handling the current state of things, and I’ve got to say that some are doing much better than others. I can tell it’s going to be a steep uphill climb to get things back to normal, or whatever the hell is going to pass for normal once we get there. I’m really looking forward to seeing what twists and turns we’re in for this season. If it’s even half as good as the last third of S1, then I have faith we won’t be disappointed.
