First Impressions - Gotham: "Rise of the Villains: Damned If You Do..."

Here we go again...

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.

It's just my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once (a la AoS).
Spoilers ahead.

You've been warned...


Season 2 Episode 1: "Rise of the Villains: Damned If You Do..."

The Good: Seeing everyone again, but most importantly...

 ...Butch...

 ...Cat...

...Loeb...

...and Nygma, who looks better without the glasses.

The Bad: 

Really Bruce? You're going to throw yourself at a door? A SOLID METAL DOOR?

Speaking of Bruce...

The WTF?: 

"Screw it!"

I never thought I would EVER hear Bruce say those words. 

Any Bruce...

...you can pick the Bruce...I just can't imagine him saying that. Ever.

In what DC Universe would Arkham put a female patient in the same room as all the male patients?

That's some straight up right there.

I get that they'd all "escape" in the confusion and wind up together in the same room with "Leviathan-guy"...

(seriously, WTF's up with that? I kept looking for the portable voice box)

...and "Leviathan-guy" talking about building a Suicide Squad Team of Villains, but Barbara should have been in her own part of the place is all I'm sayin'.

Adorkification Moment:

"Holey Moley!"

Oh Gordon...

...DAMN you for getting a Chris Isaak song in my head!

That better have been Jimmy Olsen taking pics at Loeb's "Retirement Party"...

And that's all I got from this episode...

...what?

 Jerome? Something about Jerome?

Nope. Not buying it. Too easy.

Chances are he'll be like Hyena or something...

What? Hyena's a real character in the DCU:

 well, yeah - there's him, but I was referring to this Hyena:

okay...this Hyena's a she named Summer Day, but it wouldn't be the first time a comic-themed show royally f**ked with us.

Yeah, I went there...
