(S05E11-12) "THEY DID WHAT?" and "THE BEGINNING" - What story started five years ago? It’s about a city, a calling, a Dark Knight hero. What comprised most of our thrillin’? The heroes were nice, but we loved the villains. Did it end strong? As good as we’d hoped. Will we ever forget Riddler and Penguin tied up with rope? Some moments were weak, but most were quite awesome. We’ll never forget the Legends of Gotham.

(S05E09-10) "THE TRIAL OF JIM GORDON" and "I AM BANE" Who is the man who shot good Ol’ Jim? Zsasz always had quite the problem with him. Why do people love Ivy so much? They can’t resist her poisonous touch. Is the GCPD secure? Not any Thursday. Will baby Batgirl survive till her birthday? Is Gotham a prison without any warden? It all depends of the verdict in “The Trial of Jim Gordon.” Who is the daughter of the Demon’s Head? She’s feeling vengeful ‘cause the Demon is dead. Is Hugo Strange’s science insane? The answer is “yes.” The validation is Bane. Is Alfred injured? Pretty much always. Does Barbara Kean shoot from wheelchairs in hallways? Who was the man who caused all that pain? An answer from the shadows: “I Am Bane.”

(S05E08) "NOTHING'S SHOCKING" - Who’s the man haunting Gotham’s dank sewers? This killer Croc is more than just rumors. How did Mr. Penn manage to survive? Lax coroners, and a dummy disguise. Is Jane Doe evil? Harvey’s to blame. Does her ivory mask hide more than her name? Will Scarface’s debut get Ed and Pengy talking? They bond over a bullet in this week’s “Nothing’s Shocking.”

(S05E07) Where has Alfred Pennyworth gone? He’s back in the mansion, a buttling pawn. Will Bruce survive another night at the cinema? Jeremiah gives his grief a much-needed enema. Is Barbara pregnant? Yes, but who’s asking? Who’s left in Gotham to suffer J’s gassing? He looks like the Joker, but should we remain skeptical? Who else could fall into a vat at “Ace Chemicals”?

(S05E06) Can Jim break a sprint in polished dress shoes? He’s a cop on the run, with nothing to lose. Who would dare invade Penguin’s den of treasure? Magpie’s the no-goodnik. They’re birds of a feather. Should the cops trust the Riddler? What, are you high? Will Ed bomb his audition to be a good guy? Will Secretary Walker conquer Fish Moonie’s bitches? Eduardo needs more than Jim’s “13 Stitches.”

(S05E05) “PENA DURA” – Is Jim’s army buddy a foe or a friend? At least he gives Jim a choice, in the end. Did Oswald chip away at Ed’s moral resolve? He’s not the real problem, but he’s surely involved. Is Hugo a monster? No, but he makes them. Can Bruce change a cat who […]

(S05E04) "RUIN" - Who set the bomb that blew up Haven? Ed’s looking grimy and he hasn’t shaven. Was Zsasz the professional we’re seeking news of? He’s guilty of much, just not what he’s accused of. Did Cat kill Jeremiah? Are you paying attention? Will Gotham’s clownish messiah reverse his ascension? Could Jim’s loneliness make Barbara a shoo-in? No matter how it shakes out, the whole city’s in “Ruin.”

(S05E03) "PENGUIN, OUR HERO" - Why is Pengy forever alone? He demanded obedience while inside his home. Has the GCPD created a Haven? It was a safe place until the windows all caved in. Is Selina a victim? Not any longer. If Mutants are strong, is Catwoman stronger? With the survivor count hovering near zero, who will proclaim that he’s “Penguin, Our Hero”?

(S05E02) "TRESPASSERS" - Who haunts the park talking to plants? Ivy flusters Bruce as she makes an advance. Can Jim and Harv save kids from Soothsayers? It seems so at first, but there are deeper layers. Will Mother help you? She’ll help you die. Are teeth the secret to her Mother's Meat Pies? The government sucks, most of all their dispatchers, forcing our heroes to become the “Trespassers.”

(S05E01) "YEAR ZERO" - What’s happened to Gotham in the months since we vanished? Gothamites cower, defenceless and famished. Will No Man’s Land fall to the criminal element? A flash forward sets a chilling new precedent. But what of Selina? She’s lounging in bed. Will Bruce’s quest for the witch expose a new story thread? With no hope in sight, Gotham finds a hero. You gotta start the end somewhere. Let’s begin at “Year Zero.”
