Wow Beware 5 was bad.

I dunno what was more dumb in this episode 'Humphrey Dumpler', the laser guns suddenly appearing after bullets were used in all the other episodes, or Gordon taking unknown cell calls next to a bomb he has yet to know what is detonated by.

Why are any of these things a problem, you may ask? Well we're supposed to think Batman is this real weirdo, in his costume fighting criminals and we're supposed to think it's so crazy that these statues are turning up but apparently a normal day in Gotham is for it never be daytime, for the streets to be permanently devoid of life, for people to wander around with laser guns and for people to be born there looking like fairytale characters, honestly Batman may well be the most normal thing in this show.

The other problem is the tone of the show is all over the map, guns are a no no apparently but you can rip someone's soul out on screen, commit suicide, strap people to bombs, have Batman reading about murdered women. Etc etc

The action scenes are certainly getting better, but the gangly limbs still make everything look worryingly clunky, and I dunno, the aim for the head and hope no one is inside didn't feel very Batman like - nor did using the guns.
