Gotham
Before Batman, there was Gotham.
Created by Bruno Heller
On FOX
A serialized origin-story crime drama set in a corrupt, gothic city where the camera follows both the detective fighting the system and the villains being born from it.
Everyone knows the name Commissioner Gordon. He is one of the crime world's greatest foes, a man whose reputation is synonymous with law and order. But what is known of Gordon's story and his rise from rookie detective to Police Commissioner? What did it take to navigate the multiple layers of corruption that secretly ruled Gotham City, the spawning ground of the world's most iconic villains? And what circumstances created them – the larger-than-life personas who would become Catwoman, The Penguin, The Riddler, Two-Face and The Joker?
