A Good Year for Gotham?

Now that I have your attention.

While I am unlikely to forgive Gotham for casting a 14-year-old as the future Catwoman, the character of Tabitha will certainly keep my interest. The previews for this season promised a leather-clad whip-wielder.  As we see in the season 2 opener, she is a fully ripened psychopath (see note below).  TV shows have broken my heart before, but right now she is perfect. Great leather outfit, keeps a knife in the top of her thigh high boots, sexy and merciless. Life has taught me that the benefit of pessimism is that all of your surprises are pleasant ones.  I full expect the show runners to ruin this for me somehow.  But I'll be watching every week until they do.

Sorry, no youtube

Off-topic note-we saw the entertaining mobster saga Black Mass last week. Whitey Bulger is offhandedly described as a "ripened psychopath."  This is a BRILLIANT phrase that actually seems to have been coined by the FBI-report/book/film. A google search shows that many reviewers recognized the inherent awesomeness of "ripened psychopath" and used it as a pull quote.   I like playing with words and that phrase is swell!
