Dear friends,
https://www.douxreviews.com/2018/08/gotham-no-mans-land.html
This is me, in all likelihood, saying goodbye to my vocation as a Gotham reviewer. It's been fun, but less so over the last two years. I may return for some special features if the show miraculously decides to tick up.
Hugs'n'kisses.

If you assume the FBI never recovers any of the cars Paige was in on operations, and she never left any hair in them.
Okay, I'll assume the FBI never recovers a car that Paige was in on operations, identifies it conclusively as such, finds a hair belonging to her, and has it scanned for her DNA in the eighties.
I don't think that's stretching credibility.

Maybe it's "better" but Liz is a nicotine addict and have you smoked papiroshki?

E won't be able to get American cigarettes in Russia. She won't be happy.
She'll get Russian ones and they're way stronger. She'll be ecstatic.

Actually I have nothing. All is said. I don't know how to review it.
This finale was so many levels of nonsense. Feminazi Barbara was at least true to form. (I don't use that term lightly for obvious political reasons.) The plot cheated Bruce out completely. It cheated Selina out completely. There was good stuff here, though. Penguin. Lee and Riddler, cringeworthy insanity.
God, I need help here. Considering to drop the show.

I'd be fine with Talia coming on Gotham as long as it's only for Bruce to tell her to f*k off and for Selina to beat her up.

Just as long as Gotham knows that if they recast Bruce or Selina I'm bombing DC headquarters.

As little of Jim Gordon as possible.
As little of the non-essential barely-canon characters as possible. Screw Barbara, Freeze, Tabitha, Firefly, Lee, Grundy, Strange and Bullock. I actually like several of them, and I really like Bullock, but I don't think they deserve a lot of focus at this stage of the show.
Bruce has to step up to lead character. Selina as deuteragonist. Joker as nemesis. Penguin, Ra's Al Ghul and Riddler as the "old guard" villains.
Don't try to "tell to much". Keep the story simple and straight-forward.
I think it's pretty significant that Metropolis got semi-canned. I don't think WB are happy with Stephens and Cannon.
Ideally, I'd like a new, true Batman show after a few years. The cast is fantastic.
And someone please dump Peyton List in a trashcan. Give me back Clare Foley.

Will repeat myself, for all the good it will do.
Gotham ending on a cliffhanger after having just reached the syndication threshold seems unthinkable to me.
But I'm out of nails to bite.

iZombie got renewed, in other words, seriously hurting her credibility.
-
Lucifer, Brooklyn 99 cancelled.

What are the delayed numbers? The CW DC shows have all lost live viewers but are solid on delayed views, guaranteeing renewal. If the delayed numbers are good it can work in Gotham’s favor.
If CW cancelled all shows Gotham's rating or lower they wouldn't have any left.

Hella good ep.
Best: No Barbara
Worst: No Selina

I do think that if Fox doesn't renew it the only place it would resurface would be on the WB streaming service (for all the reasons mentioned above) - though I do wonder how the Netlix deal factors into that. I highly doubt the CW or anyone else would pick it up. Well, we'll know within a week.
If WB wants to it'll tell CW to take it, suck it up and learn to like it.

And then there's this.

What color is his hair if it's not green? Just red?

Black, very black.
Checks out too, now.
Anyway in all my years talking shows on internet fora since the dawn of the internet I've made up some thumb rules to determine a legitimate source.
Among others:
- Posts highly detailed spoilers that can be proven or disproved as the promotional material is released.
- Will engage with other posters to fill out the blanks and will not contradict himself.
- Presents a story that sounds reasonable given what we already know about the show.
- Will state clearly where his knowledge begins and ends and again, will not contradict himself on this.
- Will not write multipage fanfictions about Tyrion reaming Jaime up the ass and present it as spoilers.
The less popular a show, the more likely a source will turn out to be real. Clickbait trolls are busy with Game of Thrones.
With the latest news, there's no doubt in my mind this source is legitimate.

Thanks.
I have a hard time believing it. This same poster suggested that the writers were "going all out" because they "knew cancellation was imminent" when those scripts would have been written before the end of the 2017 calendar year and filmed and processed at the end of March. At that time, Gotham was a better lock for renewal than it is now.
It wouldn't be the first time Gotham's doctored the script during the season.
Anyway, even if we could say that's just "personal opinion", there's this:

Ok. Thank god they don’t continue the split personality thing. Also How Similar is The Joker too Animated Series joker and others or Jerome?
[–][deleted] 8 points 5 days ago
Not very, he doesn't laugh as much or tell as many jokes, his voice is lower, quieter and more steady, he's very sarcastic and doesn't use prank props or toys the way Jerome would, he behaves like a 1920s gangster, he's like Jack Nicholson's Joker before he became the Joker.
This was written before the accidental episode 21 promo was released, and from Jeremiah's behavior in that clip, it all checks out.
I think we need to entertain the notion that this is a legitimate source.

Another thing: I can't see Philip surviving the series.
I'll bet Elizabeth does. Fuzzy on the fate of Paige; if the show wants to bring the big hammer down, she's toast.

Rumor mill has it the show will be cancelled by Fox by the upfronts. "Insider info". Within quotes because it's not really confirmed to be an insider account, but...
Yeah, I believe it.

It would be impossible for the show to end without Philip and Stan getting to have The Talk.
That's all I really know.

S08.E01: Winterfell
in Game Of Thrones
My humble review would be here.
<Doux Reviews> <Winterfell>
In short I really liked this for unsuspected reasons. The post-Martin GoT may have found its footing.
