katikatSo, on the night Agents of SHIELD aired, DC/WB announced a Jim Gordon centric series, Gotham:
Well, sounds interesting - though I would've preferred Marvel's Agent Carter series, to be honest - but the way DC/WB's been playing catch-up lately, is rather pathetic. First they refused Joss Whedon's Wonder Woman script, then they said a Justice League movie was impossible to make - only to be proven wrong by Marvel's The Avengers.

In one of the biggest drama deals this season, after a bidding war, Fox has landed Gotham, from Warner Bros. TV and The Mentalist creator Bruno Heller, with a series commitment. (...) It explores the origin stories of Commissioner James Gordon and the villains who made Gotham City famous. In Gotham, Gordon is still a detective with the Gotham City Police Department and is yet to meet Batman who will not be part of the series. The Gordon character was introduced in 1939 in the very first Batman comic.
