Gotham (Before Batman) is going to be TREMENDOUS
If this trailer says anything about the new Fox Television series, I can't wait for Gotham to debut this fall! I definitely believe that with guidance from Bruno Heller, who help create the back story for the comic series, that it's going to be a hit! Maybe even last up to three seasons. It's still not going to quite replace the cancellation of Almost Human which I actually enjoyed. Another bites the dust.
As originally conceived, the series would have served as a straight forward story of Gordon's early days on the Gotham City Police force. The idea evolved not only to include the Bruce Wayne character, but will also tell the origin stories of several Batman villains, including the Penguin, the Riddler, Catwoman, Two-Face, the Joker and Poison Ivy. via Wikipedia

Just on another note, if you remember, there was also Journeyman which was freaking awesome too. It's almost like we're British in the sense that we're having one season shows.
