Sometimes living in New York City has its privileges. Case in point: I recently copped a ticket to the advanced pilot screening of Fox’s highly anticipated cop drama, GOTHAM. About 75 people attended the event, which was hosted at the swanky Crosby Hotel in Soho. Attendees included the show’s stars, media elite and bloggers like me, Zeke The Freak (ZTF). And, trust me: ZTF got all the details for you.
Scheduled to premiere this fall, GOTHAM takes us back to the early days of the Batman Universe in DC Comics. Think of it as the origin story of Commissioner James Gordon and the villains that make Gotham City famous. It chronicles Gordon’s rise through the ranks of the Gotham City Police Department, focusing at times on his friendship with young Bruce Wayne. If the series turns out like the pilot then the show sets Gordon up to play a crucial role in helping the boy become the eventual hero, Batman. This is a definite departure from the comics.
