Gotham

The Penguin has become the best character on television and Gotham is fast becoming my favorite show. Just the PACE of the show is so much more satisfying than so many other serial dramas. It's dark, it's violent, and it's oh so savory. But for a Batman show without Batman, it's really hitting it's stride.

Last night the Penguin moved up the Gotham crime ladder. His missteps are becoming fewer each week, but it has not been an easy climb. That climb has sure been fun to watch, though. I'm surprised how much I now like this show. Fish Mooney went down the crime ladder last night, too. That was just as satisfying as Penguin's ascension.

On Gotham nothing stays static. That's why it works. And that's why you don't want to miss an episode.
