Renee Montoya is going to be in “Gotham.” Everyone Rejoice!
I have to admit, I’ve been kind of skeptical about the new Gotham series coming to Fox. I really don’t know why. It’s a police procedural set in Gotham City and I love the Gotham Central comic written by Ed Brubaker and Greg Rucka. It should be my jam. Well, it just might be […]
