I've watched the first few episodes of Gotham.
TBH it sounded awful. Batman without Batman? But it's actually somehow rather good. I like that it mostly takes  place at day time.

I got bored mid-second season. Flash is much better.

I got bored with Flash mid-pilot. Gotham is much better.

Flash made me doze off during the first episode. Too....tacky. Similar to Arrow but worse.

Yeah, I gave it two eps but it looked like they took all the tackiness of Arrow, without all the good things that made me withstand the tackiness of Arrow.

Gotham

in order of watch worthiness.

Ya morons.

Agents of Shield and Gotham are barely watchable. Flash looked too much like Superheroes for Adolescents in the grand tradition of the CW. Supergirl, I like the actress, but the story just seems too contrived- and there's too much flirty banter. Superheroes for Women?

The closest thing to a good superhero show out there right now might be Into the Badlands.  :hmm:

I was worried Arrow was going to be that ala Smallville, but both it and Flash aren't.

Karate + sword fighting = awesome.  :P

It took me a little while to get into it as well, and the setting is pretty far-fetched. But it's fun, and the characters are believable.

Admiral Yi

Season 3 of The Wire, Littlefinger shows.  Is he a gringo or a limey?

katmai

In real life? He is Irish from Dublin.

Most American accents are easy to mimic.  Americans seem to have trouble pulling off convincing Brit or Irish accents.  I think it is because American accents are less precise.
