Happy Thanksgiving, fellow Americans! Let’s celebrate by gathering around the table, stuffing ourselves with food, and reminding ourselves why we refuse to discuss politics with anyone who isn’t hidden behind a computer screen.
My review is late for a variety of reasons, none of which are interesting enough to go into here. Instead, enjoy this amazing picture of whatever the fuck this thing is that I found today at a Goodwill.
I’m so sad I didn’t buy it.
The TL, DR version of my review/recap:
After burning through Jerome, the Riddler becoming the Riddler, and the Penguin/Galavan conflict in less than half a season, Gotham is all
Not only is the title of the episode the title of a Rod Stewart song, I feel the plot can be distilled into a gif. This gif:
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.)
Then I read the review. They gave it a B- because the episode had a coherent story with a beginning, middle, and end. For Gotham, that’s a big deal. The very basics of storytelling are present here and that earns this show a decent grade. And I get it – the A.V. Club reviewer is probably doing everything possible to prevent his brain from walking out the door.
I myself just spent 48 minutes on YouTube watching Nine Inch Nails videos so I wouldn’t have to rewatch this god forsaken shit show of a show.
Ok. Let’s do this.
io9 headline for the review of this episode:
RIGHT??????????
Yep, I’m still here. In for another week of Gotham madness.
The most I can say about my general feelings about the episode is: “meh.”
Hello. I apologize for the tardiness of this review. I just…couldn’t.
Let’s get this shit over with, shall we?
