Gotham Knights

Let me just say that I went into the show with very low expectations. I had heard all of the negative buzz surrounding the show, and really was expecting to hate it like everyone else but surprisingly Gotham Knights actually is pretty good. Now don't get me wrong the show definitely has the typical flaws of a CW show some cringy dialogue and acting and the lower budget with the costumes. However, at the same time, it also is a little bit darker than your typical CW show. I mean, in the very first episode, we see a guy get his head chopped off and they showed it, which I never would have expected The CW of all places to show something like that.

The characters I also liked in the series Turner Hayes may not be the best protagonist as you really feel like they just wanted to use Dick Grayson but weren't able to, but he's a decent protagonist and I think he has potential. I also surprisingly liked all three of the villain kid characters, especially the jokers daughter, who I expected to be the biggest cringiest of them all, and she's actually the most interesting and complex character. I also thought it was really cool that we got to see Stephanie Brown in the series as I believe it was her first live action appearance, and it was so cool getting to see that for the first time. And so far I think they have done a good job with the court of owls. I think the talon was done good in the last episode, and I like the mystery they are building there with them.

Overall, I got to say I was pleasantly surprised with Gotham Knights. I actually think that more people should go into the show with an open mind and give it a chance it's not the greatest DC show out there but I think that this show has a lot of potential, and I'm excited to watch the rest of the season.

Don't generally write reviews, but here we are. It was a strong first episode, the scenes were snappy without feeling rushed. Misha Collins plays a fantastic Harvey Dent, and I am really digging the chaotic vibes that Rose Keegan is bringing in. Some of the acting was a bit stilted in a few of the scenes, but it's just the pilot and a bit of stiffness is to be expected. I have high hopes for the next episode, as well as the rest of the season. Abrams is a great screenwriter, and I am really looking forward to what they have coming up. Really my only complaint here is how dark the scenes are, but that's easily fixed by fiddling with the TV settings.

Listen I know that CW isn't exactly good with making their DC shows but this one is actually pretty decent. I'm a big time Supernatural fan and i'd be lying if I said I didn't want to watch this cause of Misha and so far in the first episode alone he's done a very good job at portraying Harvey Dent and I can't wait to see his transformation into Two-Face. I enjoyed watching the kids and how they interacted with eachother and I hope that the chemistry continues. I also really love the diversity of the cast and the characters. This show isn't the greatest but I like it and I really recommend it. Whether you're a DC fan, a CW fan, or a Supernatural fan just wanting to watch this cause Misha is in it, I think you should watch it.

I honestly quite enjoyed the first two episodes of this show. The first 20 minutes of the 1st episode was pretty crappy but it built up. The second episode was great and I actually rlly like the characters. This show would've been amazing as it's own show not as some Batman spin off. My main issue is the writers not bringing in characters from the original comics. In this show they slap the same names on characters and call it a day, and this is why most CW shows fail because they refuse to be faithful to the original. But it's still worth a watch if u can get past these random characters. I like how they deal with characters for example not every character u should trust. It's gruesome and gory and has a pretty good story line especially for a show that completely disregarded the original. I do think people go into CW shows with a bad mind set but please give it a watch and decide for yourselves.

There seems to be some kind of hate campaign against the CW! Sure, some of their content has not been the greatest BUT they have made some really good series.

Consequently, I find some of the really low ratings quite curious. Interestingly, those not invested in darkening the CW name have given this quite high scores - there seems to be little in the middle.

It is also odd that a series might be rubbished so early in its run. Come on folks - give it a chance!

For me, it is certainly not as good as Superman & Lois - yet. But I felt it was a reasonable start. So it's a different slant looking at the time after Batman. Surely that gives it a relatively clean slate and lots of potential?

The acting is nothing like as bad as some reviewers would have you believe. In particular, I felt Olivia Rose Keegan as Duela and Anna Lore as Stephanie Brown were standout newcomers. There's lots of action, the story pulls you in and the sfx are credible enough.

I shall certainly continue to watch it to see how it progresses. Hopefully, all the CW haters will actually go away and stop giving dumb reviews without foundation and let "normal" reviewers assess this properly on its own merit!
