Buster lost a hand onArrested Development? Tandy is perfectly bisected with the worst haircut of all time. In this case that means an all-out prank war breaking out between him and Tandy.

A touching part of the tail end of this episode is watching this fear so gradually shift into love. Its nice to see such a light episode morph into something with some emotional impact by the end....

Gotham: Into the Woods Review

Ed’s villainy comes to light as Oswald makes a dinner of his step-family. This Gotham review contains spoilers. I am being hyperbolic. All in all, this was a pretty great episode. In this episode, that focal element was Jim Gordons quest to find out who framed him. Remember when there were whole episodes about their buddy cop dynamic?
