TV show description:
A DC superhero series, the Gotham Knights TV show was developed by Natalie Abrams, Chad Fiveash, and James Stoteraux.
In the story, Batman is dead, and a powder keg has ignited Gotham City without the Dark Knight to protect it. In the wake of Bruce Wayne’s murder, his adopted son, Turner Hayes (Morgan), is framed for killing, along with the children of some of the Caped Crusader’s enemies.
Duela Doe (Keegan), aka The Joker’s Daughter, is an unpredictable fighter and skilled thief born in Arkham Asylum and abandoned by her father. Harper Row (Smythe) is a streetwise and acerbic engineer who can fix anything, and her brother Cullen Row (DiChiara), is a clever transgender teen who is tired of being polite and agreeable.
With the charismatic and hard-charging District Attorney Harvey Dent (Collins) and the GCPD hot on their trail, Turner relies on allies, including his best friend and formidable coder Stephanie Brown (Lore) and unlikely Batman sidekick Carrie Kelley (Robinson).
The group soon learns a more significant, nefarious force is at work within Gotham City. This team of mismatched fugitives bands together to become its next generation of saviors, the “Gotham Knights.”
Episode #13 — Night of the Owls
Faced with their most dangerous rescue yet, the Gotham Knights realize that trusting each other may be the only way to save themselves and the city of Gotham. Meanwhile, Harvey is faced with an impossible decision that could have devastating consequences.
First aired: June 27, 2023.
What do you think? Do you like the Gotham Knights TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season on The CW?
It just seems like a good version of batwoman. I say keep it and reconsider what you want to do in seasons 4. Since it clearly get a 4th season anyway. But I wouldn’t be surprised if batwoman maker try to sue gotham knights to get part of the profit moving forward. Since it did copy them I would probably be okay with some kind of settlement, ( agreement just hope gotham knights don’t fold on batwoman. Since batwom has nothing to lose so they can be as ridiculous as they want. I don’t see the agreement happening fast.
