Re: Is GOTHAM too violent?

Gotham is the most violent thing on tv. And that's saying something! Every week I laugh at and am concerned with this show's violence. This last week, an old lady gets stabbed to death in the first...

Re: Is GOTHAM too violent?

Again, I like Gotham but like most of you think that the themes are a bit too mature for the source material. If I'm the target audience I'm fine with it. If it's the half dozen eight to ten year old...

Yes, the frustrating part for me is how otherwise excellent the show can be.  The cast is especially strong, and a few characters like young Catwoman and the Penguin are completely riveting. Every...

I'll cast another vote for "Yes, the show is too violent for a comic book show that kids will watch."  During the GOTHAM panel at Wondercon, some fans mentioned that in their home it was "family...

Re: Is GOTHAM too violent?

Re: Is GOTHAM too violent?
