    • Trivia
      Donal Logue was initially rumored to play the role of Detective James Gordon before being officially cast as Detective Harvey Bullock.
    • Goofs
      Selina steals a full jug of milk but when she feeds the stray cat it's only about one tenth full. However, that's because she drank most of it on the way there.
    • Quotes

      Detective James Gordon: Ma'am, was that screaming we heard back there?

      Fish Mooney: Yes. My boys were watching a scary movie.

      Detective James Gordon: Really?

      Fish Mooney: No. Actually, one of my staff has been stealing money from me, so we're beating his punk ass.

    What is every where, but not where the truth lies.
    After viewing that 10 people took the time to vote down my review and checking that other reviews that were positive were also mostly voted down, i would gather people are disappointed by the pilot and I understand why. I was myself disappointed by the script, as it lacked originality and felt like statements from a telegraph message. My other problem was with pacing and particularly Barbara's relationships being rushed and crammed into one episode. Very enthusiastic and hungry performances from Cory Michael Smith and Robin Lord Taylor. A cultured Falcone will be a bit getting used to but a nice addition. Mrs Smith was delicious as Fish Mooney, who wouldn't wanna rub her feet. Not enough of Sean Pertwee. Loved his character being more opinionated and influential in Bruce's life. Who really was the man in the shiny shoes? Hope they come with more good writing for the rest of the series. I'd watch this show even though the pilot was a bit disappointing because I'm hoping enthusiasm from the shows creative/arts team and the actors will make up for it. I donot understand the mental process of some people giving the show poor ratings based on its depiction of some prominent Batman rogues gallery members as children. The child like depiction was already revealed in the trailer for the show. I've decreased my rating from 9 to 7.
