Hello~~
Do you think that it is absolutely insane to start watching 'Gotham' just because I might be interested in the BatJokes situationship?! 'cause I do have other shows queued and some sort of life going on so the timing isn't that right but smh I feel like I need to do something for my curiosity, tho I'd like some of advice lol
Thank you anyway ;)
LMAO hi, i mean, i started watching Gotham just because i was interested in the batjokes situationship, so *cheerily honks clown nose*
hmm, i dont quite know your context, so i dont know what kind of "advice" are you looking for exactly, but some general notes would be; This is a 100 episode 5 season prison sentence home arrest show. The batjokes situationship/s start from season 3-ish OR near the end of S4 depending on your definition of batjokes lmao, so you're kinda looking at a long pretty batjokesless ride here. Personally i knew that information going in, so i was like "i'm gonna try Gotham for flavour, and if it sticks, then i guess i'm in for the ride." And boy i wasn't ready for how well it sticks, one of the worst industrial grade glues i have ever had the misfortune of being subjected to in my life 34.6/10 experience would do it again.
Gotham TV is such distinct and paculiar and singular Batman production, it sacrified being an official part of canon continuity in order to portray some of the most bizarre, deranged, delightful, heartfelt and heartbreaking moments in live action Batman media, and the batjokes situationship is absolutely a part of this throne, if not the crown jewel. So like, prepare to have your life be lost on you if you ever decide to give it a try ๐โค๏ธ i got into it for batjokes, but i absolutely stayed for *motions hand in the direction of everything* the whole circus. It's such an unexpected live action Batmanverse experience with a very distinct quality of storytelling, and you'll know if you like it by the pilot episode alone, you dont have to wait on the narrative to grow on you.
#quicksand piece of insane show my beloved ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐#i think that regardless of who you ask about Gotham TV;#the answer almost invariably is ''i want to be free from this fuckass show/i need to rewatch it every 6 months or i'll start killing''#and like that's literally what we're dealing with lmao. this show is irreplaceable (derogatory) (affectionate)#so if you feel compelled to give it a try and you like the style of the storytelling; do stay for the ride!#i do think it's an absolute must have [torture] experience for batjokes fans#like there's a whole inside joke about Gotham!Joker/s being so controversial that DC dropped the while entire package#and in continuation of that the whole entire show#out the window; declaring strictly that it's not part of canon mainline narratives. This Joker could not use the name; or the haircolor;#or the original suit design. And there's a very good reason for this blatant live action disowning#when Leto!Joker is canon#Gotham TV by principle is boundary breaking and rather extreme and unique and scares most Batman dudebros.#and the closest live action Batjokes depiction we have to the actual comics. take of it what you will ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ#hope you have a lovely time in case you decide to try it ๐งก#gotham tv
