Forever (2014)
Positive surprise
I was not expecting much about this TV show.
Watching the trailer, it felt that it will be like Highlander(a guy who cannot die) with some silly situation (reborn naked in the river). And honestly, I was not a big fan of the lead actor (I've only seen him in Fantastic Four and Arthur) and he did not left me a good memory of his acting.
The lead character reminds me too much Sherlock Holmes and at some point i felt i was watching Sherlock (British version).
However, and for some reasons, the show works (or at least the first episode). It is a really pleasant show if you have some spare time. Not sure how the plot will move forward. The only risk that I fear is that all episode will be the same ... Forever !
Gotham (2014)
Disappointed
I was expecting more about Gotham.
I was expecting that: 1) the city will play a bigger role in this TV show: to me, not really. 2) characters will be properly introduced during the whole season - here you feel that the screenwriters tried to put as many as characters as possible 3) you will care more for the lead character (James Gordon). He is too transparent. And his introductory scene at the police station is really ridiculous
I dislike: 1) the plot of this episode 2) ALL the characters - Fish Money less than the others 3) the approach taken to introduce so many characters in 1 single episode
Did the last scene of the 1st episode ends such a way that I want to see more ? Not really.
