I really feel like Venice took some of the critism given over the last few weeks and are making the show better. It was seen tonight in the Episode. Looking forward to the next episode of Gotham. I think they are doing the same. Listening to the fans and trying to make it better. I am ready for both of them to develop the story a little more.
