After quitting Gotham at episode 14 I finally got back into it and fully caught up to the latest Episode.
Gotham is such a strange rollercoaster a really average show at the start of season 1 that heavily relies on Batman references and character names to keep itself interesting (otherwise its a booring Crime Drama) then near the end of Season 1 and especially Season 2 it kicks down the door and doesn't give a fuck about cannon, just makes its own mythos, im here just like.."fuck it ill come along for this ride."

I think when they started to really introduce Edward Nigma it started to really catch on, some parts can be silly but it really pulls itself together, im now 100% hooked..and as soon as I am I have to wait 2 more weeks..

Fell a couple episodes behind. Good stuff.

Loved watching Penguin get his evil mojo back and Nygma has been great recently.

Galavan becoming Azrael is neat but I want Jerome back yesterday.

Lil Wayne continues to impress.

I gave up on this show mid season 1 but damn, Season 2 has been killing it.
Good entertainment, glad I gave it another chance.

This

and the inspiration of the character seems be the Sihk version of Azrael. Though in every version he is ascribed as being the Angel of Death.

Earlier in the season, Theo Galavan revealed that his real last name was Dumas.

"Azrael" is a title given to crusaders / vigilantes / assassins who are agents of the Order of St. Dumas.

Throughout history, multiple people have taken on the mantle of Azrael.

Thank you very much all of you for these information!

It really can't be overstated how much better season 2 is than season 1.

Even when that statement is factually true, I still don't understand why people say Season 1 was bad. The Mafia wars started by the Penguin were massive highlights for me, and Penguin definitely carried that first season on his shoulders.

Penguin has always been great, but he was definitely more interesting to watch during S1. He seemed smarter, more cunning.

I felt the second half of Season 1 is much better than the first half.

Aside from the island stuff.

Before arresting not-yet Riddler, Gordon called them friends but not sure I agree. Don't think they hung out but Gordon did trust him enough to seek Nygma's help after the jail break.

Spoiled just in case (speculation):
Are we going for the Court of Owls thing for this season? I mean Hugo grafted a bird-like appendage onto that woman AND is bringing people back to life and turning them into weapons. Plus he was involved in killing Bruce's parents.

Same here, just caught up. Great stuff.
Good to have some more fans of young Bruce.
Yeah, I also still want Jerome back.

Been a fantastic season.

Producer John Stephens talked to TVLine and teased what to expect from the final episode of this season.

"You have to watch the last scene," in which "the nature of the city of Gotham will change," Stephens previews. "It's a development that is in line with all the other stories we've been telling, but one piece that we've kept hidden." Also, as Season 2 comes to a close:
Two lives are left in limbo.

Ok, Bruce had no business being with the cops there in the middle of a gunfight, but Batman being inspired by Azrael is kinda cool.
