Just wanted to give my Jokerholic friends a heads up.
I finished watching today’s episode of GOTHAM which starred Jonathan Crane and his father in search of a cure for fear (great origin episode by the way) but what caught my attention is the fact that on the previews for the show next week, the big hint is the quote you see in the title….COULD IT BE? ARE THEY HINTING A POSSIBLE JOKER ORIGIN STORY?
Well, it was less than thirty seconds long, but the kid evil laugh is a little creepy and scary…maybe this is it. What new origin are they cooking for our favorite clown? Hope they don’t give much. I don’t want the whole episode focused on the kid who will become the Joker (or two like they did with Crane), but I would still would like to see what hints they will throw out there.
I know many people out there DON’T want to see a Joker, but the series is doing a good job with hinting all the characters personalities in their futures impersonations as well as giving very plausible origin stories based on science and real facts. ( the only one I think they need tweaking is Nigma, but that is just me).
Just check out the episode. I think it will be interesting. The series is not that bad…I find it refreshing to have a Batman series without well…Batman. It is interesting knowing that all these characters we love (and hate depending on what team you play) had a life before the creep in the Bat-suit starting jumping from roofs.
Take a look at the preview from MOVIEWEB.COM
Remember GOTHAM airs every Monday at 8pm on Fox…see ya there next week!
*SPOILERS* That’s not actually the joker! Wanna know how I know? Watch the first few episodes of the show and figure it out. 😉
