What the f*ck!!! What just happened here? Well, I guess Jerome wasn't the Joker after all. I keep thinking they faked his death, but the manner in which they killed off Jerome was very definitive with a knife to the neck and him bleeding out. I guess Jerome was always meant to be the influence on society in creating and warping minds and turning them to killers. The way they had Jerome bleeding out of his mouth clearly was designed to look like the Joker's 'Red Lipstick" look. Man, this sucks. Killing Jerome off is the same as killing off Darth Maul. Now what comes after is gonna suck. I still gotta believe that Jerome is still alive. He was stabbed by a knife that just happened to take place on stage as he was performing as a Magician. So, I'm hoping that said knife was one of those spring/retractable knives.

Yeah, I haven't been posting in this thread for a long time, but that doesn't mean I haven't been watching every episode this season. The first half of the season was a huge step above Season 1, but it did have a couple of so-so episodes, but still better than before. The second half of Season 2 has been insanely fun to watch. The last 7-8 or so episodes have really stepped up their game. Last week was great in finally seeing The Penguin snapping and becoming the cold blooded character we all know him to be. This season has been especially great because of Edward Nygma / The Riddler. He has gotten a huge bump in character development and has been the breakout star this season. But tonight is all about the birth of Azrael, which came in the final scene of the previous episode. But in this episode it was all about him and it was f*cking awesome. The one thing that Gotham is lacking is Batman for obvious reasons. But with Azrael, he will fill in that void and I look forward to more.

Hugo Strange has been another huge addition to the series. I love that he is now able to bring people back from the dead, turning Theo into Azrael was the start. He even gave us an Easter egg of another well-known character coming our way. Mad Hatter anyone? But the one character that I'm waiting for Hugo to resurrect is Jerome / Joker. A while back when there was a shot of the meat locker showing bodies hanging instead alongside Theo, there was someone right next to him: Jerome. This season is already a huge success for me. I can't wait to see what they have in store for the final 3 episodes.
