Just realized I put Episode 3 instead of Episode 6 in the thread title! Lol!

 

[Arachnerd]

PM one of the mods here so they can change it.

Also, why the heck hasn't the title of this thread been corrected yet?

Seriously, it's bugging the crap out of me.

I messaged a few mods on the hype, but no one has responded yet! Aargh!

 

[Arachnerd]

You tried the ones who specifically moderate this sub-forum, like Kelly and TheCorpulent1?

I will do that immediately!

 

[Arachnerd]

Yeah, it's happened once in the past with another thread, and I messaged Kelly and she ended up correcting it a while after.

I just messaged Kelly, and hope she'll respond soon enough!

If it makes you feel any better, it bothers me too!

 

[Kelly]

In your PM to me you said to change it to Ep. 7, but here you are saying 6, so I changed it to Ep. 6. Is that correct?

Gosh you people are impatient.....

 

[Arachnerd]

Yeah, now the title's fixed. Thanks.

 

[Kelly]

Alrighty...

 

[Pennywise]

In your PM to me you said to change it to Ep. 7, but here you are saying 6, so I changed it to Ep. 6. Is that correct?

Gosh you people are impatient.....

Yes, I mean't Ep. 6!

Anywho, Thanks!

 

[Astro13Zombie]

Excited to finally see Pyg.
If I remember correctly we saw two pig mask wearing guys that weren't him.

Wonder if they'll tone home down for the show

 

[Arachnerd]

Those were probably his victims.

 

[Astro13Zombie]

Those were probably his victims.

No I mean in previous seasons.
Like the balloon man from season 1

 

[Arachnerd]

Ah, I thought you were talking about the two cops with pig masks in the promo.

Well this clip that one You Tuber apparently gave us, is an indication although they are changing some elements, it still has elements of the classic Professor Pyg

and more on Professor Pyg's character from the mouth of Michael Cerveris: (http://collider.com/gotham-season-4-episode-6-trailer-professor-pyg/)

"Professor Pyg is a brilliant and chameleon-like person who has a highly developed sense of what’s right and wrong — it just might not be a sense of right and wrong that corresponds with everybody else’s."

His arc will see Prof. Pyg going after corrupt cops he believes to be “pigs” which, surprisingly does not include Jim Gordon, surprise, surprise. However, fans can expect Pyg to keep them on their toes since his ultimate plan won’t be revealed until a little later on in the season. His villainy will also lead him to cross paths with the Penguin, which is where the musical portion of this insanity comes in:

“Especially when they had somebody who played Sweeney Todd, they knew the direction they wanted to go.”

On some level it reminds me of this:

 

[NotNickFury]

An episode featuring Professor Pyg feels oddly appropriate with the new Saw film coming out, given that one of Jigsaw Killer's monikers was wearing a pig mask.

 

[Arachnerd]

Oink oink.

Spoiler

Sofia's totally playing both Gordon and Oswald.

And I see Lee's passive aggressiveness hasn't gone away.

 

[Morg]

Grundy a bad***!

 

[NotNickFury]

Even with Penguin and the Nygma/Grundy stuff, I appreciate the lack of Bruce Wayne in the episode so far. Nothing wrong with all of that, but it's been a long time since we've had a simple Gordon/Bullock team-up episode that was the main plot of an episode. I've honestly missed this chemistry between Logue and McKenzie.

 

[Arachnerd]

Boy, I wonder what Ed's gonna do.

Also, I swear it's the second time that lady popped up that door to relay information.

 

[terry78]

You can't beat Grundy.
