A Gotham before Batman, this show tried a curiously new angle in the Batman mythos. Whether or not it succeeded is up to you.
What’s in the Gotham Universe Episode Order?
Gotham started out as an interesting idea from its creators, to have a show about Gotham before Batman. The show focuses on Jim Gordon, who is probably the most important character outside of the Bat-family in other stories. Here, he’s the main character.
Gotham has received some criticism but still managed to stay airing for a while. And who knows what the future might bring. Despite some pitfalls, it does have a few shining moments (like the perfect casting of Alexander Siddig as Ra’s al Ghul), and it certainly keeps a unique tone.
Gotham does not tie-in with other known DC universes, so far at least. There are other shows that could, in theory, crossover in the future. But for now, it stands on its own.
