I noticed something about Season 3. It feels like the writers are quickly moving chips into place in case Season 4 (next season) ends up being the final season.
You have Bruce training. Nygma is now The Riddler. Kid Ivy is now Adult Ivy. Selina is beginning her transformation into Catwoman. Penguin and Ivy are building an army of freaks with Mr. Freeze and Firefly.
It feels like the show's writers are preparing for the end.

Almost getting funny how many time Lee has had a go at Jim. He's straight up not even acknowledging it now. How did Penguin get the freeze suit?

I love how they're using Lee to call out what a piece of shit human being Jim Gordon is. Every word she says about him is true.
He's just tuning her out, like any good ex-boyfriend would do. Actually, I do like that Jim is more shady than Bullock now. Character development, baby.

No please,
1. I really don't want a Harley older than Bruce, it would change Harley's dynamic too much.
2. If she is crazy before being a doctor it kind of ruins it
I would like to see
1. Lady Shiva
2. Gray Ghost(in any fashion)
3. Kate Kane, Bruce's cousin(Batwoman)
4. Montoya's niece(a better Montoya)
5. Barbara Gordon(the actual Barbara)
6. Deadshot
7. More Red Hood Gang
8. Bane
9. Black Mask
10. Hush(slowly develop)
This list is missing my actual #1 which has been announced for this season already...
They could introduce her in S04E01 and have her slowly transform from Harleen in to Harley as she begins to fall in love with Jerome/The Joker.
I'd like that. Despite all her appearances in recent media, we've never seen her descent into madness described in detail.
Glad the show got another season, btw. I still think it's the best comic book show (although AoS has been really good this season).

Harley at this point should be at most early elementary school age.

She can be whatever age the writers want. This isn't the comicverse, or TASverse, or DCCU.
They should bring her to the show as someone to help with the psychiatric side of catching criminals, but borrow the "Slept her way through university" backstory so really she not qualified and faking it.

It really just loses too much of the character imo.
The best part of a good Harley is that weird young innocence she kinda has.
Stallion Dan
Member
And the show can give us that.
We likely aren't gonna see these characters after 5 years from now so it doesn't matter how things might end up when Bruce is in his 30s, is why they can do whatever now, it doesn't need match a future image because we'll never see that image.

Penguin and Poison Ivy is the new best dynamic of this show. Loving their scenes so far. When he was being a prick to her when they first met that was hilarious
Agreed.

Isn't it kind of weird that the Court of Owls is trying to create Batman?
Can't wait.
I don't expect the Court to take too kindly to Jim poking around. He's acting very suspicious if the promo is anything to go by.
Razgriz-Specter

A bit of their Azrael and a bit of Ra's al Ghul.
It's definitely weird to me, but I also haven't read any of the comics so not sure how this plays out in any other telling of this story.
Stallion Dan

Or another one of their assassins more likely? But Bruce obvious gonna take the training and use it for his own values.
Septimus Prime
Member
I thought about that, but there's no reason to use Bruce Wayne. They already have Talon, as well as Hugo Strange's cadre of crazies from Indian Hill. And Jim Gordonor so they think. They would all make more sense to use than Bruce.

They have A Talon. They'll need another one someday. As for "why Bruce," well, getting Wayne Enterprises firmly under their thumb again would be a nice upside. An indoctrinated Bruce does that for them too.
Stallion Dan
Member
Because he is a Wayne and owns the company that can run Gotham.
Septimus Prime
Member
I mean, I get that, but I don't see why they'd also want to train him to be a Talon-level (or better) assassin. The puppet/figurehead should never be given the power to take out its puppet masters.
Yeah, it's a bit too much focus on the mob scene like in season one. Owls the new tough guys in town. Not sure what Jim has planned, but I don't really care.
I much prefer the focus on the villains. I'm so glad they didn't really kill off Penguin and brought him back immediately. Now he's putting together a team for some bad guy antics. Seeing the Riddler emerge is great. Same for Catwoman. Joker and Scarecrow waiting in the wings. The interaction between these villains and Gotham should be a lot more interesting than boring Owls.

The Court is institutionally arrogant like that, honestly. It's gotten a lot of them killed in the comics.

Anyone have the gif of the penguin army decoys from S2?
Posted it a while back on gaf but can't find it now.

I'm leaning towards manipulation. But he was pretty dumb leaving the drawer open.
