I don't intend to trash the movie, but this is better.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Big call. We haven't seen Zoe Kravitz undress in her cat-lady apartment, a jet engine + V8 Hoonigan Batmobile, or Paul Dano being a creepy weirdo yet... just to name a few.

I really liked this. I almost wonder if it should have just been the one episode. I don't really need more.

Second episode was a bit of a step down from the pilot but that was to be expected. Christin Milioti continues to steal the show.

Why it was expected? They told us?

“Ey we really didn’t try that hard on the second ep. And third is a disaster.”

It's common for more effort to be put into a pilot. Pretty straight forward I'd have thought.

This is actually better than I thought it would be and I’m enjoying it a lot more than the movie.

I enjoyed the first episode, but haven't felt compelled to watch the second. I don't really remember if I liked the movie and at 3 hours I don't think I'll ever rewatch it to find out.

The approach they’ve taken is what makes it so interesting.

I've actually been really enjoying this. It's weird, though, when the characters mention California, or Italy, as Gotham to me is a fictional place and not part of our world. Takes me out a bit.

Otherwise, im really enjoying it and i think Farrell is quite mesmerizing.
