Once again, I was smiling through this whole epsisode. Derwin0 really nailed it -- solid every episode.
I really seem to enjoy the episodes that focus on Bruce Wayne/Selena/Alfred, even though I'm not someone who normally watches shows that feature kids or teens. I like seeing this early drive in BW to develop himself and getting training from Alfred and Selena. Maybe it's straight from the comics, which I've never read. But it seems like in the movies, becoming a crusader was more of an adult decision and activity. It makes more sense that he would have coped with the tragedy of his parents murder by actively preparing himself and researching in the immediate aftermath.
Great mid-season finale!

Are they going to solve the Wayne murders this season? I wonder if they will want to? It seems like it would be more of a multiple season type of story. The last few episodes seem to show movement on it.
Since we are on mid-season hiatus, I am starting from the beginning again, and my son is watching with me.
Next Episode: S01, E11

Yes, this show has pleasantly surprised me as well. Makes me wonder what other good stuff I have dismissed without sampling.
The Big Bang Theory got me. Missed the first two years due to my distaste for comedy sitcoms.
Yeah! Gotham is back! The winter dead time has ended!
Shall we take bets on how long Gordon is at Arkham?

Pet peeve.... Everyone at Arkham keeps calling Gordon, "Officer Gordon." The uniform Gordon is wearing has sergeant's chevrons on both sides. This would make him SERGEANT Gordon, not Officer Gordon.
You can see it that way, but I don't think the writers meant this. I thought about that. But within the ranks, the only thing that is respected is the uniform. That is a sergeant's uniform.

The whole thing does not make sense. You cannot make a police detective a prison guard. You could have him be a cop stationed at the asylum if you were to bust him down from detective to cop. It makes as much sense as making him a sanitation worker. Completely different department, different hierarchy (not to mention unions), and different jobs. But, then I guess this is fiction and they are taking vast liberties with "the system".
I'm not going to get too worked up about any of this since it's fiction. This is not based on the real world people.
I saw it that way because of the emphasis that the warden placed on the word "officer".
