Show Notes

In a surprise release on May the 5th Fox TV announced that Gotham had been officially picked up for a 13 episode season. We had suspected this in the past but it’s great to have it confirmed. But following on from this great news a teaser trailer was posted on the Fox YouTube channel showing our first 30 seconds of Gotham. Even more surprisingly a full 2 minute trailer was released which you can see here.

In this episode we discuss everything we can see in the trailer, all the character reveals from the Commissioner and Mayor of Gotham to Butch Gilzean, Fish Mooney, Edward Nygma and Poison Ivy.

Full spoilers and guess work abound.

We also recommended that you go check out foxgothamfans.wordpress.com and shawnlunn2002.blogspot.ie who have been discussing some great Gotham stuff over on their sites.

We’ll return with our next episode on the first in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy Batman Begins in a few weeks time.

Meanwhile let us know your thoughts and you could be in with a chance to win that great signed Penguin print by Matthew J. Fletcher the details are here.

Intro music for the show is Crime Scene Part 1 by The Afghan Whigs

“Cast and Characters” – Zero Year E02

Show Notes

Derek and John return for Zero Year, Episode 2. This time we have a much longer episode that focuses on all the details about the announced cast and characters so far and introduces for the first time the “News” section of the podcast .

News

We begin this week discussing some of the news that has come out since the last episode.

  • At the 2014 Winter Television Critics Association press tour the Chairman of Fox Entertainment has given his description of what we can expect from Gotham with an interesting take of “Gotham teetering on the Edge”.
  • Rocksteady have announced the forth and “Final” game in the Arkham series due out in 2014 on PS4, PC and XboxOne. This is the third game in the series created by Rocksteady and will see a significant upgrade from the previous incarnations. For the first time in this series you’ll be able to actually drive the Batmobile giving you the chance to “Be The Batman” even more than ever before. See the announcement trailer “Father to Son” here:
  • Grant Wilfley Casting has put out a call for extras for the Gotham TV show in New York. Confirming our theory on the filming location for the show. Following Marvels announcement that their four Netflix TV shows will also be filmed in New York we think this confirms New Yorks’ position as Superhero capital of America.
  • We also discuss some casting and news for two other DC properties. Since we recorded the podcast the first full image of The Flash’s costume was released this week and there’s lots of casting for the pilot of Constantine.

Next time on Gotham TV Podcast we’ll be doing our first review show. Derek and John will be discussing their thoughts on the original Batman Year One comic by Frank Miller and the 2011 animated movie adaptation of the same name. This adaptation stars Ben McKenzie as Bruce Wayne/Batman and will hopefully serve as a great introduction to a younger cast of Characters from the Gotham Universe. Expect the episode towards the end of March.

Show Notes

The announcement by Fox Networks of an up-and-coming TV series based around the City of Gotham in the DC Batman Universe was received with excitement and interest by fans of the DC Universe and all things Batman including us.

Based around characters established by Bob Kane and developed by Bill Finger the TV show is set to follow the origin of the young Jim Gordon in the Gotham City P.D. and explore the origin stories of the villans that have made Gotham infamous.

With the show set to be produced by Warner Bros Television and currently in pre-production with Director/Executive Producer – Danny Cannon – and Writer – Bruno Heller – established to guide and develop the Gotham series in its first season.

In this Gotham TV Podcast episode Derek and John discuss our early impressions and thoughts on how this show may develop and pose some questions about the show, such as: How will Gotham function without Batman?

Some major cast announcements have already been made and include Ben McKenzie as the young Jim Gordon, Jada Pinkett-Smith as a new crime boss Fish Mooney, Sean Pertwee as Alfred and Robin Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot (aka the Penguin). These casting choices will be further explored in our next podcast.
