    Gotham's final season premiere was an exhilarating rush that showed us just how hellish Gotham City can truly be. I'm eager to see how this epic show comes to a conclusion.

    Althouth I liked the last two seasons better, I thought that the final season of Gotham was a high point to go out on.

    With Gotham cut off from the rest of the country, the show basically went full Mad Max with various gangs fighting over control of the city. The season basically had permission to drop the pretense of any real-world restrictions and go full crazy, and I love it.

    Season five does a surprisingly good job of allotting time for all the characters. Cameron Monaghan again excels as Jeremaiah Valeska. They even manage to include a decent portion of the show's recurring villains. (I think I'll miss Dr. B.D. Wong's Hugo Strange most of all). Plus, we finally get to see a certain Batman villain who has never been depicted in live action.

    Unfortunately with the reduced episode count, two characters got short shrift. Manbat was teased at the end of last season, but you won't get him this time. Also the writers fell into their habit of having the Penguin behave childishly a little too much. It can be hard to see how he achieved underworld success at these times.

    Again, the show has surprisingly good set and costume design for network television.

    I'm happy to say that Gotham season 5 gives the same enjoyable chaos that the show was known for.    … Expand

    Gotham brings crazypants eccentricity to a familiar Bat-plot, though, plus a final-act feeling that the safety’s off. The first three episodes overflow with bullet-y standoffs, blood feuds declared, unexpected explosions.
