What to Know

Critics Consensus

The character work in "What the Little Bird Told Him," along with the comeuppance of the Electrocutioner, are strong enough to overcome the anti-climactic face-off between Fish and Carmine Falcone.

Monday's episode ended with Gordon back on the force, bickering with Bullock in the station. So what was the point of the Arkham adventure, exactly? Go to Full Review Michael Calia Wall Street Journal 08/06/2020
A mixed bag of an episode that was as frustrating as it was entertaining... Sometimes I wish Gotham would just slow down for a little bit. Go to Full Review Vinnie Mancuso Observer 01/20/2015
I had to enjoy a large part of it first. Which I did. Go to Full Review Eric Walters Paste Magazine 08/06/2020

What we get instead are stories that are fairly well conceived and delivered, but lack any distinctive flavor. The toast isn't burnt, or limp, you just forgot to make sure you had any jam in the fridge. Go to Full Review Blair Marnell CraveOnline 08/06/2020
