Tonight's episode of Gotham was, undoubtedly, the series' most important for one simple reason: the introduction of the Joker.

This episode may feature a circus, but actually feeling like one, in terms of content, was not the best approach, as it stepped on its own toes constantly, in an effort to make each storyline resonate.

This week Gotham seems comfortable filling up its runtime with little moments that serve little purpose.

There are two moments in this episode that send shivers down your spine. Two moments that shock and throw you off-guard. Two moments that make sure this will always rate as one of the best episodes of Gotham's first season.

If you're going to deviate, Gotham, can you at least, I don't know, put some effort into it?

Batman's arch nemesis and the greatest comic book villain of all time deserves more than what the writers gave him last night.

"The Blind Fortune Teller" is everything Gotham's supposed to be: brimming with a slightly unhinged, goofy gothic quality, clown fistfights, supervillain origins and some stuff I can't even comprehend.
