It's sad to me that more people aren't watching or even talking about Gotham. Online recaps and discussions have died off dramatically for season 5.
It's a damn shame, because the show is so much fun. It's easily one of the most purely entertaining comic book shows ever and as a Batman fan it's great to see so many great villains gradually getting closer to their comic book versions.

    About 14 minutes in. Right after Ed gets knocked out while hiding from the mob, the camera pans in a jail cell and you see 2 officer/army guys escorting a guy with a black skull mask over his head. It is more of an Easter egg, but was still cool to see.
