What to Know

Critics Consensus

Despite a solid procedural plot -- and the introduction of Dent himself -- "Harvey Dent" is mostly an uneventful episode that adds little to the overall story arc.

Jeremy Egner New York Times 08/06/2020
Gotham welcomed a notable character from Batman lore, paired off its resident moppets and further muddled the increasingly convoluted intrigue enmeshing its primary villains. Go to Full Review
Kyle Fowle AV Club 12/30/2014
The case-of-the-week is compelling, the mob power struggle continues to move in interesting directions, and we even get some wonderful development in terms of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle. Go to Full Review
Vinnie Mancuso Observer 12/30/2014
"Harvey Dent" delved deep into "I don't need to see this" territory, more so than any other episode of Gotham before it. Go to Full Review
Eric Walters Paste Magazine 08/06/2020
8.5/10
It presented a smart, tight story that was connected to the larger narrative, as opposed to the fractured episodes we've seen often in the first nine weeks. On top of that, it found a way to build its characters without detracting from its main plot. Go to Full Review
Aaron Neuwirth The Young Folks 08/06/2020
The work is being done to put together an acceptable show on a weekly basis, but for a series with lots of great potential, having an episode that barely features the titular character leaves me feeling pretty indifferent. Go to Full Review
Anthony Ocasio Screen Rant 08/06/2020
There's still an overall sense of inauthenticity which continues to bring the series down. Go to Full Review
