Gotham season 5 episode 1 preview: Year Zero

Gotham is back for its final season with season 5 episode 1’s “Year Zero.” Here’s your preview of this all-new episode of Gotham.

It’s hard to believe that Gotham is entering its final season. The show has been building to this moment, and season 5 sets the stage for the future of the show as a young Batman debuts and all of the villains have revealed themselves.

While fans hope for a miracle pickup by another network or streaming service, the first order of business is to support the show and make sure the ratings reflect the show’s popularity.

This week’s synopsis of “Year Zero” offers a few hints of what we can expect this week:

“Jim Gordon and Bruce Wayne face the chaos Gotham City has become, as the villains who survived the attack on the city begin to resurface and claim various territories; Selina Kyle grapples with how to deal with her uncertain future.”

Gotham City has been taken to its knees after the attack, and the people who stayed behind have managed to carve out a life for themselves, such as it is. Jim Gordon and Bruce Wayne are working to maintain order, but that’s a tall order with all of the villains also looking to gain positions of power amid the chaos.

Speaking of villains, Selina Kyle is at a crossroads and she has to figure out where she fits into this new world.
