Gotham Season 3 Episode 12 "Ghosts" Review


Falcone places a hit on Gordon after learning that he shot Mario. Gordon and Bullock discover a follower of Jerome, who plans to bring him back to life. Meanwhile, Penguin spirals out of control before the biggest television interview of his Mayoral career, and Bruce and Selina deal with Selina's mom's return to Gotham.

This was a very interesting episode that was a little hard to follow and really jumped around a lot in its stories. I really like the idea at the beginning of this episode where Leslie hated Gordon for what he has done to repeatedly ruin her life. But the fact that Falcone was only willing to get his revenge on Gordon if Leslie wanted it too seemed a little far fetch especially with how quickly Leslie changes her mind. I did really like the Jerome cult get together and how creepy they kind of made it feel. Then it was really fun having Zsasz back and having him compliment Gordon on his skills while also trying to kill him. It was kind of hard to watch this episode because there were like four completely different stories going on that really seemed to jump around more than normal and I didn't really care for that. The parts with Penguin in this episode were really great with Penguin slowly going crazy, and it was interesting when the truth was actually reviled that Nygma was behind all of it and what Nygma's future plans are for Penguin. Then the moments with Bruce and Selina were really interesting for a number of reasons. I really liked getting to know Selina's mother and kind of seeing that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. It was also really cool that they did bring up the court of owls figurine in the simplest of ways and I'm very excited to see what they map the figurine showed leads to. Then ending was also really cool with this group of cult people working to bring Jerome back and all their secret experiment they are trying to do in order to get it all right. And just overall this was a really great episode and I'm excited to see more.
