First Trailer of Fox's Gotham Released

You've read the questionable plot synopses. You've seen the questionable pictures. Now prepare to view the first questionable trailer for Fox's DC based project Gotham! As mentioned earlier, Gotham just recently got the green-light after Fox strongly approved of the pilot episode and mere moments afterwards they released a sneak-peek of what is to come. Personally, I am still a bit skeptical about a show that heavily advertises Batman's villains without the Caped Crusader himself. Perhaps they are banking on the general public to not realize that the villains arrived in Gotham because of Batman and not the other way around? That being said, I am still excited to see what the show has in store. And who knows? Maybe Cobblepot and Nygma weren't so much as villains back in the day, as they were just misunderstood men brimming with redeeming qualities. We all know how much America loves the redemption story, am I right Avi Arad? Anyway check out the trailer and feel free to give us your input on how you feel this show is shaping up. And be sure to pause it at 1:17 to get the first official glimpse of creepy Alfred in the background. Enjoy!

  1. Ryan, nice thoughts on how Gotham might fail to distinguish itself apart from the cowl.

    Another point I'd like to add is that the draw behind Jim Gordon is that he's an honest cop despite having virtually no allies on either side of the law. Unfortunately, I can see this show easily choosing to drown Gordon with a bloated ensemble cast of insignificant others whose sole purposes are name-drops, cheap exposition, and convenient solutions to each episodes' conflicts.

    Hopefully that doesn't happen, and FOX chooses not to spit in the face of subtlety...
