I'm not sure I even care how this wraps up now that Tabitha is gone. She's the main reason I stuck with this show through some very rough times.
First episode was good...

One of the many slip ups of an otherwise noble effort...
They were gearing up to make Tabitha her mentor to Catwoman.
They wasted to much time...

I couldn't make out her final words....

Gotham Officially Turns Selina Kyle Into Catwoman
- BY MICHAEL KENNEDY
- – ON JAN 11, 2019
- IN SR ORIGINALS
Gotham season 5 finally transformed Selina Kyle into Catwoman in its second episode, "Tresspassers". It's been a long, strange trip for the citizens of FOX's Gotham, a project which at first seemed like a fairly straightforward prequel to the Batman mythology fans know and love, but ended up being much more of its own creative beast. Over the course of its four prior seasons, Gothamgleefully avoided simply retelling established character journeys, reinventing the backstories of nearly every major hero and villain.
When Gotham began, it's unlikely many would have predicted a plot arc involving The Penguin falling in love with The Riddler, but not only did it happen, many fans embraced the idea. It's also doubtful most viewers predicted early on that Barbara Kean would evolve from Jim Gordon's fairly bland girlfriend into one of the most entertaining thorns in the side of the iconic law enforcer. Gotham also managed to turn a negative into a positive, using the fact that Warner Bros. wouldn't let them depict the Joker by name to create the similar, but still unique characters of Jerome and Jeremiah Valeksa.

One of the most important characters on Gotham since its debut has been Selina Kyle (Camren Bicondova), although she's more often been depicted as a friend to Bruce Wayne than an enemy. Selina retained her basic background as a talented thief, but usually seems to find herself conflicted between the sides of good and evil, especially when Bruce is involved. On the newest episode of Gotham though, it looks like the switch has finally been flipped, and Selina has transformed fully into Catwoman. Ironically, it's actually Bruce that facilitates the change, due to his unwillingness to leave Selina in the paralyzed state she ended up in after being shot by Jeremiah near the end of Gotham season 4. Unfortunately, he makes the mistake of going to Poison Ivy for a cure.
During last week's Gotham season 5 premiere - titled "Year Zero" - Bruce was told that only someone called "The Witch," would have the power to heal Selina's condition. This week, Bruce came to find out that said person was, in fact, Selina's old friend Ivy Pepper, now long since fully evolved into Poison Ivy. Ivy points Bruce to a mystical seed capable of helping Selina, but warns that with the seed "the darker angels of our nature are unlocked and set free." Bruce doesn't heed the warning, returning to Selina with the seed. She consumes it, at first experiencing a negative reaction, before being seen walking around later. While she insists to Bruce she's never felt better, something has clearly changed in Selina, as her eyes become bright green and cat-like.

Longtime Batman comic readers will remember that Catwoman's traditional origin is just that she's an extremely skilled cat burglar, hence the cat motif. Gotham has given Selina a decidedly supernatural origin, one which is likely to remind some of the Tim Burton film Batman Returns, although Gotham's version is at least somewhat more plausible within the context of the show. In Batman Returns, Selina is murdered, before inexplicably coming back to life after being crowded around by a group of stray cats. At least Gotham tried to provide an actual explanation. Going forward, one wonders if Selina will now be free of her conscience, and fully villainous.

That shit with Haven had my jaw on the floor. Feels like the time jump is coming soon.
Probably why we'll never see Batman on any of the Arrowverse shows(or in person on Titans for that matter)
They are going all this season.....
Am I the only one still watching this...
I'm waiting for it to show up on Netflix.
Nope. Watching faithfully.
They went back to Tim Burton's Batman in this week's episode...
Last night's episode was good,we got got two villains last night....It's ashame they couldn't introduce them earlier.
While I did like the villains that were introduced, they could have left out the sewer zombies. That shit was dumb.
Not a sewer zombie, just the 1st part of his transformation. Not sure if they'll continue it though. If they do it would be killer to see, if not it's a croc of bullshit to leave out there.
They should of introduced Scarface and the whole sewer storyline, a few years ago.
I was waiting for something to happen during the wedding....
They are going all this season.....
You gotta give them credit never in my life thought i would see magpie, bane, ventriloquist, catwoman, joker, penguin, riddler all in one episode.
Whoa...
I wish they introduced Scarface earlier...He was one of my favorite villains on the Batman:The Animated Series....
They should just move this series to the streaming service and do 2 movies (8 episodes) a year.
And we'll probably never see some or any of those villains on either the CW or DC Universe..
Don't be so sure ..
CW brought back suicide squad recently
These companies want to wring every last drop from the properties they own out right.
Wtf?!?!
4 WEEK BREAK?!?!
4 WEEK BREAK?!?!
Glad to see them fully embraced the insanity of this show...
