score 8/10
I'd been procrastinating to watch this show because I didn't like the fact that it was focused more on Jim Gordon and the villains rather than the early years of Bruce Wayne, but once I saw the first few episodes on Netflix, I was hooked. It is pretty good so far. Not as good as Smallville's first couple of seasons, but it's better than Supergirl, Arrow and The Flash combined. I think the biggest drawback is that they don't give young Bruce enough scenes...I mean come on this is called Gotham for Pete's sake. Also introducing Selina Kyle with her nickname being Cat is kind of another drawback because unless Bruce develops Smallville anemsia (lol), he's going to figure out real quick who Catwoman is when they become their iconic alteregos. Everything else is pretty solid. The acting is not too much except for Jada Pinkett's performance at times is a bit much but I really enjoy watching her character as well...I feel like in some of her scenes she's trying to embody Earth Kitt as Catwoman somewhat in her voice at times which can be annoying but overall she does a really good performance as Fish Mooney and Penguin does a really great performance in his role.
I would highly reccommend anyone who loves DC comics or just like watching crime driven shows in general to watch this because it's not as bad as some have made it out to be and its actually the piece that has been missing from TV since Smallville wrapped up in 2011.
