Telly’s Take
The ratings have been coming down once again this year and Gotham isn’t the hit series that FOX would like it to be. However, the network has lots of ratings challenges these days. On top of that, a fourth season of Gotham will give the studio enough episodes for a good-sized syndication package. For those reasons, I am confident that Gotham will be renewed for a fourth season.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Gotham TV show has been renewed for a fourth season? Would you have been upset if this FOX TV show had been cancelled instead?
Omgosh renew no doubt I love this I’ll be super upset if it ended I’m hooked sooo plsssss keep it going for along time yet the stories are amazing I need more seasons xxxxx
I love the show! DC universe is brilliant at the mo and this is the strongest contender. I think the idea of how Gotham becomes is just superb. I am a Brit myself so this in the UK is some of the best imprts we have ever had. I hope it lasts at least 6 seasons enough for Bruce to get older and realise he can be a weapon everyone knows and loves. Sod the viewings over there, us Brits love the show coz we unstand what the word Origins means!
Ur are so right I’m in the UK and everyone I know loves this show its such a hit here I absolutely love this show x
I absolutely love his show! So glad it has been renewed!!!!
Please, This show has to be like 9 seasons long. I love this show so much.
Renew! It has a lot of potential and so many villains not even touched yet. Especially with Ras Al Ghul being introduced.
Renew Gotham!!!!!!!!

Let gotham Stay #RenewGotham #GothamSeason4 #GothamRenewal
They need to continue with this show. So much is left unsaid. Great show.
I am a faithful viewer of the show, *and* also purchase each season’s worth of DVDs as they come out. I would be absolutely DEVASTATED if Fox axed this show before giving us the long (and eagerly) awaited Season Four! PLEASE DON’T END THIS SHOW NOW!!!
This show is amazing I would be devistated if the show was cancelled.
To get a bigger audience, Fox will need to consider doing these things: 1) Get Gordon closer to the point of taking over the GCPD. He’ll need to be made a captain at some point in season 4 (probably near or at the end of it) and on a more superficial yet emblematic move, he’ll need to start working his way into growing out his facial hair, i.e., mustache. 2) With the aging and focusing of Bruce this season, Bruce needs to make more obvious growth toward his pending detective-level vigilantism in some kind of street garb.

H.S.
Nice,
finally,
an intelligent human who gets it!
thank you,
I am just sick of hearing fans spew crap without actual knowledge of TV reality.
like I said…I love the show and want it to continue. but fans need to be realistic about the reality of Hollywood.
that’s all.
Yay
You Get It H.S. !!
Gotham needs to be renewed for season 4. This show brings me a ton of happiness and something to look forward to every Monday. They can’t rush the development of these characters, this is a show about how they became who they are today, they need to give as much details as possible. The transformation of Bruce needs to take time, Batman can’t be that powerful without a bit of training. This show is one of the best and it continues to amaze me. Keep it on for more seasons than just 4.
Wish I could increase the rating so they’ll continue
I believe it’ll make it through season 4 and maybe season 5 if we’re lucky. The fact that they’re picking up the Brice transformation story are so quickly now shows that they know time is limited. And since they’ve changed the origins of so many characters I wouldn’t be surprised if Bruce starts out as Batman at a younger age.
