Oct 11, 2018 | Full Review… Karen Han Slashfilm The returning series kicks off at full throttle. Jul 18, 2018 | Full Review… Ed Power Digital Spy Harvey and Jim's relationship is one of the keystones of Gotham, and a reason I come back every week. Jun 21, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Lauren Busser Tell-Tale TV In short, Gotham is a series that breaks its promises. Dec 12, 2017 | Full Review… Kiel Phegley CBR Those who've managed to keep up with the decade of continuity shoved into three seasons will likely find a lot to enjoy in this third season. Sep 18, 2017 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review… J.C. Maçek III PopMatters Gotham Season 3 is the strange union of melodrama, crime thriller, and superhero tale. The returning cast all get a chance to shine, and new characters (such as Jervis Tetch) all add something fun to the show. Aug 31, 2017 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review… Gareth Evans Starburst With its incredible multitude of twisty, intertwining storylines, intriguing characters, and excellent ensemble, Gotham: The Complete Third Season continues to prove why this is one of the most compelling shows on television. Aug 28, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Jeff Beck The Blu Spot With its opening episodes, the third season of Gotham creates a darkness that I'm not sure I ever want to escape. Sep 16, 2016 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Eric Joseph We Got This Covered Where the visuals suggest a wild burlesque of the mad and blood-lusting criminals of Gotham, the writing goes for goofy quips and platitudes that keep the show just safe enough to be aggravating. Sep 16, 2016 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Chris Cabin Collider View All Critic Reviews (9) Audience Reviews for Gotham: Season 3 Jul 10, 2019 how can anyone complain at this season which introduces captain Barnes christopher p Apr 19, 2019 The story with Mad Hatter is quite solid and it's linked up till the end of the season. The season finale is very epic and the fight between Bruce Wayne and Jerome Valeska is just precious to me. David K Mar 04, 2019 Strong character development, a consistent tone, believable characters, chemistry and acting solidify this show as the greatest comic book show ever. Ethan M Feb 19, 2019 Again, season three continues to keep the thrilling effects of the previous two and now adds in supervillians to the mix! Sahil G Nov 13, 2018 Gotham gets better every season! Mari T Aug 03, 2018 this show is getting stronger and stronger. superb story telling and very enjoyable. roll on season 4 Aaron M Jul 20, 2018 Still The Best DC TV Show Ever Still Got Great Acting Performance And This Is Actually My Top Favorite Season So Far Zachary L Jul 20, 2018 Love This Gotham Season Definitely My Favorite Gotham Season So Far Zachary L May 04, 2018 it is a very good SEries, and it's best season so far (since i live in austria, i have not seen the 4th season yet). All the characters go through a transformation, the biggest transformation has to be the ones of Penguin and jerome. oswald (penguin) discovers that he is gay and in love with nigma, which is beautifully played by robin lord taylor. also a good acting is done by cory michael smith playing a riddler, who is obviously not interested in oswald. jerome in his case is coming back from the death and releasing chaos in gotham citiy. a very good performance by cameron monoghan giving us one of the best joker performances i have seen in a long time (even though he doesn't play joker in the series, but he is kind of close, isn't he?). The story is good, but not extraordinary. It's basically like any other season (there is a Main-Villain, in this case its the court of owls). But since we get the back story of batman here you can consider it special. Noah H Oct 09, 2017 A great season, Gotham keeps getting better and better with each season.
