DVD Reviews
“Warner
Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the
DVD I reviewed in this Blog Post. The opinions I share are
my own.”I watch this show every week and never miss it, along with
"DC's Legends of Tomorrow," "Arrow,"
"Supergirl,"
and "Flash!"
I'm a sucker for any comic book shows or series, especially
great ones like this.
"Gotham" is
from a different universe than the other DC shows on CBS and
The CW, so they don't do any crossovers. It would be
difficult, anyway, since Batman is a child in the show and
not yet a hero. I've really loved this show since it
started, and it gets better every year. I love the dark
humor and the twists and turns of the plot.
In this season year, Jim Gordon is not as much of a good guy
as he was in the first season. Things really get amped up
for Penguin and Riddler, among others. It's a very dark and
twisted show, but I love it. There really isn't one thing I
don't love about it. Although I love all of the superhero
shows, I think this one is probably my favorite. It's really
the other side of the coin from "The Flash." It's the dark
to Flash's light. Both shows are fantastic, though.
The big villain in this season is Theo Galavan, but there
are just so many villains that it's really almost hard to
keep track of them. We get teased about the Joker, who
doesn't really appear in the flesh (but perhaps in spirit).
Bruce and Alfred get even more into the action. It's great
to watch how Bruce evolves. In a way, it's a shame
that this show will not last long enough to see him turn
into a man and be Batman. That would be awesome. TV shows
just don't last that long, especially superhero shows. It
would have to be on the air at least another decade or so.
Unless they age the characters and jump ahead a few years.
The DVD has many great features to keep any fan busy. It has
over 90 minutes of special features. I just wish they were
all on one disk, but Warner Brothers likes to spread them
out among the disks. I find their menu on this one to be
kind of irritating and hard to use, too. The features
are well worth watching, though. If you
haven't watched the first season, make sure you go back and
watch that first before viewing this one, or you won't know
who's who or what's going on. Enjoy! MORE INFORMATION:
