Telly’s Take

Will Gotham be cancelled or renewed for season six? Since even the bat is eventually no match for a hungry television vulture, the series is ending with season five, and I shall have my supper. With Bruce Wayne transforming into Batman though, there could well be a sequel or spin-off someday. I’ll keep an eye on FOX releases and industry news, so subscribe for free Gotham updates.
