Gotham 1x22 All Happy Families Are Alike

As Gotham City’s gang war reaches its boiling point, Fish Mooney goes head-to-head with Maroni and Penguin in an attempt to re-stake her claim on the city. Meanwhile, Barbara and Leslie Thompkins are brought together after recent events, and Bruce searches Wayne Manor for any hints that his father might have left behind.

A while back, Jada/Fish said in an interview that she wouldn't be back for Season 2. Given that we don't have a body, who knows if she might pop up down the road but I doubt it.
Loved the various character developments / reveals. Death, retirement, psychotic break, psychopath, coming of age. A little bit of everything! Looking forward to season 2.

The Harley Quinn fight was hot. Interesting turn of events, but the finale was far too comical. Tell me that bitch is finally dead. Where is Victor Zazz? It seemed like there was an episode missing.

 so i'm confused..barbara kills her parents, tries to kill leigh in a jealous rage, then jim walks in on leigh trying to kill barbara, but instead of making sure she's ok and alive, he comforts the girl who looks like a liar because she was caught attempting murder and its always he said she said.
but then as we all know, jim later marries barbara....? or did he marry a different barbara??

.. does jim marry her or does he just have a baby with her? i don't really know the comics, but now that she seems totally crazy i think its possible that she just does something to get pregnant by him and then dies giving birth.

I really don't like the Fish character she is the most cartoonish and over the top part of the show and she doesn't even connect to the lore. I know Jada said she was done with the show but the ending really leaves the possibility of her returning and i hate that. we've seen fish come back from worse.

That was quite the season finale!
Fun to watch, but also just a little over the top crazy.

It's like they were shoving two or three eps worth of story and drama down into one.
Maybe the script authors wrote 20 episodes and the 3 last were a bit sketchy, or...?

On the other hand, if every episode of Gotham went by such a breakneck pace of story development and craziness, it would incidentally lead to frenzied characters like the Joker make a lot more sense, lol... :)
