My main concern is that a green-lit Gotham series could remove some potential characters from Arrow. I could even see Warner deciding to make a certain character, who happens to be a major Batman villain, off-limits even though he's already been mentioned several times in Arrow this season.
[TV] FOX's Gotham coming soon.

...And suddenly we're Bruce's parents.
I'm Batman.
It's astonishing the mileage you're getting out of that pic.
On the subject of Batman TV shows, it looks like the '60s tv show is getting a full release later this year.

I'll believe that when I see it.
More casting news on the Gotham show: Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock.

Hoping to see a Renee Montoya casting soon...
So, what's your Question?
Well, in addition to the news that some of the classic villains like Joker and Riddler will be turning up in the show to showcase their humble beginnings, the first picture has arrived of one of them: Oswald Cobblepot, the Penguin.
He better be shorter and fatter than he appears...
There are a few other pictures out there and he doesn't really have the weight on him associated with Penguin. At the very least, he at least has a nose that from the side looks hawkish.
Here's a picture of Harvey Bullock and Jim Gordon.
Are they on Dr Huxtable's stoop or on Sesame Street?

That actors face makes me angry.
Another addition to the cast, in the form of Selina Kyle.
If Bruce is 11, why is Selina 30?
Actually, Selina is going to be a teenage orphan in this series.
yeesh, like 30 year old Allison Hannigan playing a high school kid.[DOUBLEPOST=1395438583,1395438366][/DOUBLEPOST]OK, she's 14,. But in that pic she looks like she's old playing young.
I have no interest in this series. It's basically Smallville: Batman Edition.
And Smallville lasted ten seasons too long.

Story goes that Paul Dini was originally tasked with creating a Batman prequel series. He deemed it an unworkable concept for the character, left the project, and the whole thing was retooled to be based on Superman instead.
And it only BARELY works for Superman. If they had renamed the show Metropolis, put him in the costume, and then continued on fighting super villains and doing team-ups and quasi-Justice League stuff, I'd have a lot less problems with the show.
Honestly, I was excited about this particular project when it was going to be basically Gotham Central. I'm a LOT less interested now.
Jesus Christ, they actually used the "There's a war coming" line? Why not just say "There's a storm coming" while you're at it?
Yeah, I'm sorry, this looks like crap.

This. So much this. I started rolling my eyes as soon as tween Catwoman appeared on screen.
