What to Know

Critics Consensus

"Ghosts" serves more to whet viewers' appetites rather than push Gotham in bold new narrative strands, but solidly entertains with the welcome appearance of Victor Zsasz.

Victor Zsasz is such a welcome presence on this show. Anthony Carrigan's performance is a near-perfect balance of menacing and charming. Go to Full Review

A-
Fortunately, Carmine's best assassin is also his most good-natured. Jim finds Victor Zsasz helping himself to some milk in Jim's apartment. He came to warn Jim that he expects to get the kill order from Carmine soon. Go to Full Review

Really, the only way to understand my disappointment [in "the birthday boy" and Ray Salinger] is by comparing the two characters side-by-side. Go to Full Review

7/10
"Ghosts" kicked off the downfall of Penguin's empire and the potential return of Gotham's Joker stand-in. That's a promising way to launch the second half of the season, but getting there was rougher than usual. Go to Full Review
Matt Fowler IGN Movies 07/19/2018
6.4/10
Lee, even with all she'd recently been through, behaved in an extremely uncharacteristic manner throughout the bulk of this one, almost flipping switches as fast as Barbara did back in the second half of Season 1. Go to Full Review

The quality of these stories varies about as wildly as we've come to expect from the show, but for once the drama finds its balance where it matters. Go to Full Review
