Review: Gotham – Season 2, Episode 7 “Mommy’s Little Monster”

At the top of each A.V. Club TV review they list a letter grade for the episode. They gave this episode a B-. I thought, “Am I too hard on this show? Am I expecting too much because I’m such a fan of the source material?” (Spoiler – Nope.)

Ok. Let’s do this.
