POLL: How Would You Rate The Series Premiere Of GOTHAM?

POLL: How Would You Rate The Series Premiere Of GOTHAM? POLL: How Would You Rate The Series Premiere Of GOTHAM?

The critical response to the first episode of Gotham has mostly been very positive, though some fans still can't seem to get on board with a Batman TV series with no Batman! The pilot episodes aired a little earlier this evening, so we now want to get your rating on the series' debut...

With returning favourites like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Arrow being met with open arms and fans eager to see Constantine and The Flash make their respective debuts, it's fair to say that Gotham is the comic book TV show which many have been most wary of ever since it was first announced. Focusing on a young Jim Gordan and his arrival in Gotham City following the murder of Bruce Wayne's parents, the Fox series promises to explore an area of Batman's past we're not all that familiar with as we meet a number of his greatest enemies in their pre-bad guy days. 

The buzz surrounding the series has been extremely positive and Netflix even made the unprecedented move of picking up Gotham for the online streamng service before the premiere. 

How long Gotham can keep up its premise remains to be seen, because even if Bruce dons the cape and cowl on his 18th, there's still six years of story which they need to tell between then and now unless they do some sort of time jump. That's a long way off though, and for now, we'd just like to hear what you thought of the pilot and to get your ratings in the poll below. Was it a 5* debut or did the moustache-less Jim Gordon do nothing for you? Here's your chance to let us know...

I am very interested to see where it goes, it wasnt anywhere near as hokey as i thought it would be, but they tried to fit too much into one episode.

In all seriousness I still haven't seen it yet, I'll download and watch it tomorrow. I hope it's good! I love the Gotham Central books so I have my fingers crossed it resembles that series

Solid 2 the lesbian angle with Barbra was cool . . Jada Pinkett is kinda cool. Otherwise what a badly written show . . .Falcone is . .not so Falcone he seeems like some political animal . . .alot cheeseball lines. Penguin seems like some other arseholes origin story . .Riddler sucks. How come they cant turn off the F**king police car lights at the precinct . . I mean wtf is going on damnit . . Visuslly it feels like Gotham but . .wtf .. And why the hell is Selina Kyle just roaming every scene . . And like I thought Bruce is a p*ssy . . .just stop it.

Picture the Gotham pilot going to jail...for fraud or something. And when he gets there...his prison cell mate is BatManiac...the guy he helped put away ten years ago....

Wasn't bad. I liked Gordon and Penguin. However, I felt like they were throwing too many characters in your face the whole time. I think it's gonna take a few episodes to truly get going.

Just finished it. It seemed like a solid pilot; a nice twist on classic Batman lore. Of course, bits were awkward but it will get better as it finds it's groove.

Am I the only one who noticed them laying the groundwork for Bruce to become Batman at some point? Maybe we could see that if the show makes it to 9 or 10 seasons. Just food for thought...

@BatManiac I agree about the references. I felt like they were throwing too many soon-to-be villain characters in your face. I'm gonna give it a few more episodes, though.
