Season 1 Review: Gotham Knights is watchable for committed fans of the genre or DC completists, but it mostly feels like another test of the franchise’s coattails (or cape tails). Mainly, the show fuels the perception that despite the character’s durability, it’s possible to dip into the Batcave once too often. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Without enough style or personality to shed new light on this world, though, Gotham Knights‘ darkness starts to look awfully dull. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Gotham Knights just left no impression on us, which is deadly for any show, but especially one that’s trying to be a Batman series without Batman. Read full review

Season 1 Review: With the lone exception of Misha Collins’ Harvey Dent, every main character manages to be bland and uninteresting. The by-the-numbers mystery plot and the meager action scenes do little to take advantage of the rich tapestry that is the Batman mythos. Read full review

Season 1 Review: With its heart caught between a daytime soap and a gritty superhero drama, it never feels as potent or as focused as its premise promises. Read full review

Wasn't going to watch based on the trailer but I'm glad I gave this show a chance. I can't wait for next week's episode!

People kept telling me it was bad, but it honestly was pretty interesting. there were like a lot of unexpected things but I think mostly why people keep on saying it’s bad is because they add a new characters and I don’t even think they watch the show.

It's never seen before group of bat brats and joker's daughter. The production, lighting and cinematography is excellent. There is so much heart put into by writers, showrunners and actors and crew and even costumes to potray the minutest details, kudos actually to them.

There is so much heart put into by writers, showrunners and actors and crew and even costumes to potray the minutest details, kudos actually to them. There is trans and bisexual representation in main cast. Misha Collins amazingly plays never explored before story of harvey dent and his transformation to two face which is worth watching. The level of story development and mysteries that are shown and even the villain group called the court of owls is quite gripping. The entire show deserves multiple watches because every time you can discover some fascinating detail you might have missed. This show is brilliant.… Expand

What is the point of a show in batman universe that hates batman ? They seem more interested in seeing how many DEI tick boxes they can squeeze in than actually writing a good show, continuity errors are abundant, logic leaps plentiful and 0 engaging characters.

Batwoman was maligned by audiences, we need to do better. I know, let’s turn Batman into a teen drama. Great idea, and let’s get the CW to make it. Gotham Knights is… is… does anyone know a word better than atrocious? Appalling maybe? The writing is abysmal, the acting is awful and the storyBatwoman was maligned by audiences, we need to do better. I know, let’s turn Batman into a teen drama. Great idea, and let’s get the CW to make it. Gotham Knights is… is… does anyone know a word better than atrocious? Appalling maybe? The writing is abysmal, the acting is awful and the story is fraking stupid. This show is horrible. It has no redeeming qualities. It’s like vomit and diarrhea poured into a vat of rotten eggs. I cannot comprehend how this was thought up, much less approved. Do the writers and producers for this fish poop really think they have a hit or do they know they just scraped gunk off the bottom of their shoes?… Expand
