No, they have done him badly last year.
Wasn't Felicity the one who encouraged him to stop killing in season two, though?

Another possible scenario:
Constantine Drakon. He survives being shot by The Hood in the pilot due to Flashpoint

Or:
Slade Wilson. Because that'd be fuckin' awesome.
But she had the best costume.
Not even once.

The only thing we know for sure is that his origin traces back to Ollie ' s actions in season 1.
I loved her on the show, but hated that costume.But she had the best costume.

Lets be real. Prometheus is probably going to get taken out by a tablet thrown by Felicity. If it is Tommy, he will stay losing.

Tommy is a beta across all timelines. Not even the Speedforce can change that.

Zero nailed it a while back: Gotham fans are like Anime fans, evangelical to such a degree that you begin to question everything.

It's not true. Especially not this season. Last season was decent, but the show seems to be going through its own Arrow season 3 right now.

That's a weird way to say Riddler.
MAybe just Stockholm syndrome.
Well, it only has 2 full season so far. The first one was okay, but had a really rough start and tried to cramp pretty much storylines of each and every somewhat important character in each episode. This led to storylines lasting for ~5-10+ episodes but only a little bit happend in each episode. Also, all except the last few episodes were Villain of the Week episodes.
The second season was much better, because first, they made mini arcs that lasted 2-3 episodes instead of villain of the week episodes and they also only put a few character storylines in each episode. This worked so much better. Also, the show is probably as comic book as it gets. You have scenes that feel like a buddy cop comedy and then they shoot a guy who has dynamite hidden and explodes and one asks the other "What the hell are you packin'?" It's so surreal it's funny as hell. But you also get some REALLY dark scenes. The show just does some complete mood swings but somehow it works.
The third season so far is not as good as the second was, but it's only 3 episodes in. We haven't really touched the main storyline in the first 2 episodes, unlike S2 where it started even back then.
Oh, and one really important thing:
Forget everything you know about Batman. This show is it's own universe. You get stuff that DOES NOT MAKE SENSE in the comics, get villain introduction that should not exist at this point in time - but just accept it. Gotham now is it's own universe.
And if you want to know anything else:
Come to the Gotham thread.

Please stop with the damn flashbacks!
Oliver must be the real ra's al ghul because between the time he got stranded on the island and when he returned home I swear he lived about 25 lifetimes.
Going back to just watching Flash and Supergirl. What a crappy show.

I am waiting for next season, when 5 years have passed, and he tells us he actually left during the S1 events to go back to the island offscreen and do stuff.
No, I mean, I wait for the moment he tells us he went there during, like, EP 5 and 6. And again during 11 and 12. Stuff like that. Just because. xD

We knew he went to russia since like third episode of S1. Would be stupid to not show that.
Plus really..that premiere was better than anything Supergirl has pulled so far
They have shown very little of this time though. We have seen maybe a year in total.
It's roughly 1:1. There's just big time skips between seasons we don't see. Rest assured he spends months of boredom on the island doing nothing.
So much room to show what he did between each season!

Yes Gotham is the best comic book show. Though to enjoy it you have to be a fan of the camp since it embraces it.
It's probably why it seems so polarising, since camp is all about making itself different. But it sures beats Arrows attempt to be dark and edgy but failing hard because it's really just The O.C with superheroes now. Kinda funny considering Gotham's star.
Edit: If you're in UK camp is probably a bad word for it since it has different, stronger meanings here, I guess hammy and/or cheesey may be a better discription.
It's only 3 episodes in, it's not been bad at all. You obviously don't like Gotham but statements like this are pure nonsense.

You're mistaken. I do like Gotham. I just hate season 3 so far. It feels like early season 1 again, and them bringing back Fish (albeit temporarily) and Falcone cement that.

Gotham can't be better then anything as long fish Mooney is part of it

Finally finishing last season. Just watched ep 15. Felicity literally relearned how to walk and walked out of the room on Oliver. I wish I woulda been able to watch this live to read the reactions

Lol it just all seems so silly when I think about it. Her becoming crippled that season and then that whole sequence of events
Also thank you
That was the same week where they revealed who Zoom was. From finding out who zoom was, to seeing Olicity at its maximum and having her gain the ability to walk, only for her to walk away.
I literally almost gave up on the show right then and there.

Fuck
On Gotham vs Arrow. Most of it is based on expectations.
Arrow in the back half of season 1/early season 2 was a legitimately good show. Possibly even great. So when arrow is poor/mediocre its a noticible drop from where it has been.
Gotham is always poor/mediocre with the occasional good moment. So the audience expectations are significantly lower. These lowered expectations make it less frustrating to watch despite it mostly being a worse show then arrow
