Strange will not use the cure for two reasons. First, he profits way more villainy, cuz he is a villain. Second, why then would you need to be setting up Batman, right? Jerome and Jeremiah are the perfect way for the creatives to get as close to using a character that they know fully well that everyone wants to see, that they legally cannot use, as they can. It is 100% fan service. And every one, not no one, gets what they want.

As a writer, that's one of my biggest pet peeves. If you're going to set your main character up as having a skill, WRITE them with that skill. You can't just say "trust me, he's a super smart assassin" have him totally fail to murder ANYONE unless they're handed to him on a silver platter, then still expect your audience to believe that he's a super smart assassin. Even Suicide Squad does a better job (and that's not saying a lot). They at least set up that Deadshot's good at assassinating people by HAVING him assassinate someone in a clever way that you wouldn't expect.

Batman defeats The Penguin, Penguin rises again, defeat, rise, defeat, rise, over and over again because comic books. That's also why I'm okay with everybody breaking out of Arkham on Gotham. In every other version criminals break out of Arkham Asylum all the time. Even the trope comic book death can be used well. Sometimes, I think both Gotham and the comics use it lazily, other times it's great!

But if we're talking about current comics, he doesn't. Penguin was high, but after multiple runs in blackgate and Black Mask and Two Face taking him down, AND Red Hood shorting him and leaving him in critical condition, he's no more than a common street thug. So much that current comics ignore him. And Gothams always followed and referenced dark storylines, hence Jokers face staples.

The whole show went off the original plan with the second season. Remember, it was originally pitched as a crime drama, centering on Jim Gordan fighting the impossible battle to clean up Gotham. Then people complained so much about that they started having Batman villains show up as villains (or close to them) instead of just as people who would one day become villains and they kept Bruce around (I think they originally planned for him to appear rarely or even be shipped off to boarding school or something) and becoming more and more Batman-like. Now, to be clear, I'm not complaining or anything I just kind of would've liked to see the show as it originally was planned and we didn't really get to. Still, I'm okay with what we got and it managed to last for a while. Given that prequel series have a limited shelf life, something "Smallville" failed to learn, living way past the sell-by date.

It just seemed to me like really lazy writing with the sole purpose of breaking up Ed and Oswald's friendship-bordering-on-bromance.

Or my last theory is that Kristen had a twin or sister that looked exactly like her and she was trying to get revenge on Ed for killing her sister. I mean Gotham does have a thing for twins and clones. But then they just killed her and I was like wtf. I was expecting some sort of twist besides "This is thrown in so that we can make Ed suddenly hate Penguin."

It's funny because I'm not great with faces, so when Isabella showed up I was like "what's everyone talking about? She looks nothing like Kristen." I was totally shocked when I found out that that was the same actress who had played Kristen; the change in hair and glasses was enough to make me wonder why on earth Ed was so shocked by this random woman who looked nothing like Kristen to my eyes. But yeah, speaking of issues with her death, can I just say: even if her brakes weren't working, her steering wheel still was! There was no reason to drive straight in front of a train. *Turn your blessed steering wheel*, Isabella. *Steer* the car _away_ from the path of the oncoming train. Sure she might've swerved into a pole or an overpass or something, and I guess she still could've died from that, but there was no reason for her to just sit there and scream and drive the car in front of the train.

I mean the dude has a pretty high body count you'd think he'd be more brutal about stopping Jeremiah, you know? I mean if you can't keep anyone in prison, and you can't kill them then your only answer is to "rehabilitate them" in this morally questionable way in the hopes they don't start blowing more things up again.

Quinn Curio that’d actually be a cool arc tbh. Especially if this “miracle” method ended up not working with them. The reasons why could be left ambiguous so the fans could debate, with a few hints here and there about how the machine might’ve been faulty with a loose bolt here and some rust there, and a few more about how maybe they’re not really “insane.” The implications of that would be horrifying if done correctly. And it would farther cement the Joker’s legacy as being someone Batman wants to cure but can’t.

Not calling him the Joker is stupid? You know nothing of the general backround of the Joker. The Joker wasn't some dumb 17 year old kid. Why do you think DC didn't let them have the rights to use the Joker? Simply cause Gotham isn't true to the comics, or the general backround of the character. It's constantly suffering an identity crisis. Gotham is too goofy, and messy with how the lore works. It can't hold a firm grasp on how the characters work. They see the Joker and they say Clown Loon. The Joker isn't that simple. Gotham just objectively, is not a good show. Even a series like Arrow or Flash is miles ahead of Gotham. And Gotham is decades away from being as good as something like Daredevil, or Punisher. The choice of roles are also very strange. Selina Kyle has plastic surgery, nose job, and a mother load of makeup applied to her face. Stuff like this doesn't portray the character very well, and doesn't give the viewer a firm understanding of the character. I could go on and on about how bad this show is and how it seems to get worse and worse.

The only people who hate Gotham are the ones who think every batman story has to be the exact same. It's so annoying.

@@YourDeath311 I don't really find it cleaver but I just find it fun even some of the more ridiculous moments like The Balloon Man I just find soo absurd that I just have to laugh. Also I love how pathetic some of the characters are like my favourite characters are Penguin and Riddler not because there deep but because there soo pathetic that they just chew the scenery every time there together.

I wish the show did crazy take on the original villains from Adam West's show like Egghead, King Tut, and Louie the Lilac.
