Go Back Before Gotham With Gotham Begins
Fox’s hit TV Gotham gives us an unprecedented look at the city of Gotham before it had Batman to defend it from the worst of it’s criminal element. But what about even earlier? Before war hero Jim Gordon arrived in Gotham and Bruce was just a twinkle in his parents’ eyes?

Well, the fellas at Warp Zone have you covered with their parody video, Gotham Begins, which pokes a lot of fun at some of the not so subtle refrences and easter eggs in the TV Show:
Although I really enjoy Gotham, I agree with Gotham Begins in that the show can be pretty heavy handed with showing early versions of characters in the Batman universe and instead of subtle hints and possible misleads it’s just YES THIS IS TOTALLY THIS CHARACTER OR THEIR PARENT. I mean they seemed to just introduce the future Pamela Isley to go “HEEREEE’S POISON IVY!” and she hasn’t even been seen or mentioned since. I think Gotham Begins is pretty damn funny without being unfair to the show or its fans. Though my favorite joke of the whole video is the line at the end: “We’ll call it… Central City. Nah, that’s too FLASHY.”
