Gotham Knights (2023) | comment |
Gotham Knights is a superhero teen drama created for The CW. Produced by Chad Fiveash and James Stoteraux, alongside story editor Natalie Abrams, the series is based on the DC Comics Batman mythos.The Batman is dead. A fact that has shaken Gotham City to its core, along with the revelation that its Dark Knight was secretly the millionaire Bruce Wayne. Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan), the adopted son of Wayne, is thrust into a new infamous life as his father's legacy haunts him. Harvey Dent (Misha Collins) believes he's detained three prime suspects: the duplicitous "Daughter of the Joker" named Duela Doe, the gifted engineer Harper Row, and her brother Cullen Row.Despite sharing the same name, close release period, and a few plot details, this series is not connected to the video game of the same name. Furthermore, despite sharing key production figures and characters, this is not connected to Batwoman (2019) or the Arrowverse at large.The series premiered on March 14, 2023, but was later canceled in June 2023, with efforts to continue the show elsewhere being unsuccessful. Gotham Knights ends its run at 1 season of 13 episodes.Previews: Official Trailer | |

Canon Foreigner | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_113480b7 | comment |
Canon Foreigner: Turner Hayes is the only main character to be a brand new character exclusive to this series, though with a similar backstory to Dick Grayson and Jason Todd from the comics (poor orphan adopted by Bruce Wayne). Rebecca and Brody March, the wife and son of Lincoln March, have no counterparts in canon. Until it turns out that Rebecca is a Canon Character All Along, as an adaptation of Doctor Leviticus. Brody is still a Canon Foreigner, however. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In the first episode, Stephanie mentions Olive Silverlock, the protagonist from Gotham Academy. The access code for Bruce's private elevator is "1939", the year Batman debuted in the comics. Stephanie's father game show host Arthur Brown appears, though he hasn't become a supervillain (yet, at least). Ed Nigma (the Riddler) is mentioned in episode two as being one of the most (in)famous alumni of Gotham Academy. The original character of Duela variously claimed the Joker and Harvey Dent as her father. She only says the Joker here but then it turns out Harvey Dent is her actual father. There are several allusions to Stephanie's superhero codename from the comics, "Spoiler", and one to Harper's, "Bluebird". | |

Parental Abandonment: Turner was an orphan whom Bruce Wayne adopted, before being murdered himself. Harper and Cullen Row have fled their abusive father to fend for themselves. Harper mentions that their mother left, so he started beating on them instead of on her. | |

Frame-Up | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_2d363f63 | comment |
Frame-Up: The three youthful criminals Harper, Cullen and Duela are framed for Wayne's murder by robbing the place just as he's killed. The payment for them comes from Turner's account so he's arrested too. Joe Chill says he was framed for murdering Thomas and Martha Wayne, having gotten hired simply to mug them (using an empty gun) then both were shot making it look like he'd done it. Turner believes this, and it appears to be true, but can't stop his execution. | |

Hollywood Law | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: While some prisoners have spent a long time awaiting execution in the US, fifty years (as Joe Chill does) is pretty unlikely without either being executed or having his sentence commuted. Here, it's ascribed to the Court of Owls' influence, keeping him alive for their purposes until he's deemed useless at last. If any real child were born in a mental institution like Duela, there's no way she'd also be raised there to young adulthood. She'd be put in the custody of the nearest relative who wasn't incarcerated, or in foster care if she had none. | |

Gotham Knights (2023) / int_351205d2 | comment |
Stephanie and Turner are very close friends and in "A Chill in Gotham" seem to be near the point of kissing after Turner thanks Steph for always believing in him, before she gets a call from Brody. Harper assumes (incorrectly) that they're already Friends with Benefits. This ship gets sunk in "Poison Pill" when Turner kisses Stephanie and she tells him she didn't feel any chemistry. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In the pilot, Harper tries to make a plea deal where she takes responsibility for the death of Bruce Wayne in exchange for Cullen being let go. Harvey shoots her down, as it's obvious that she, Cullen, and Duela were hired by someone and her confession is worth nothing unless she can name who paid her. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The season-turned-series finale is this, mostly due to the series being Cut Short. The kids clear their names and stop Dr. Leviticus's plans to destroy Gotham, but Turner is left behind when Wayne Tower blows up, leaving the rest of the team to believe that he died in the collapse. Also, Harvey Dent completes his Face–Heel Turn to Two-Face, and it's anyone's guess what nefarious plans he has in store for Gotham with his moral side suppressed. Despite all that has happened, the kids have become True Companions and decide to continue as the Gotham Knights, compelled by the need to help others and protect the city in Batman's absence. Meanwhile, Turner uncovers the truth about his past, and his faith in his adopted father Bruce is restored. Discovering that his birth parents were skilled assassins trained by Henri Ducard, who also saved him from the Wayne Tower blast, Turner now has an opportunity to fully follow in Batman's footsteps by embracing Ducard's tutelage. | |

Comic-Book Movies Don't Use Codenames | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_643879c7 | comment |
Comic-Book Movies Don't Use Codenames: Subverted. For the first four episodes it seems like "Gotham Knights" will just be the title of the show, but in the fifth episode the protagonists are finally labelled that by the press. So far, Carrie/Robin is the only team member to use a personal codename, however, although Stephanie and Harper's comic identities as Spoiler and Bluebird have been alluded to and conceivably could eventually have been used if the series had gotten more seasons. Duela's alias when she first appears in the comics is "Joker's Daughter", which has been more of a description than a name in the show. Cullen never used a codename in the comics, and Turner and Brody aren't in the comics. | |

Gotham Knights (2023) / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: The finale ends the series conclusively in most respects as they anticipated a possible cancellation, but there's still some plot threads left dangling, mainly Two-Face's plans for Gotham now that Harvey's repressed personality is let loose, the Gotham Knights still think Turner is dead, while Turner himself is saved by Henri Ducard who wants to turn him into a warrior like his parents and Bruce Wayne. | |

While some prisoners have spent a long time awaiting execution in the US, fifty years (as Joe Chill does) is pretty unlikely without either being executed or having his sentence commuted. Here, it's ascribed to the Court of Owls' influence, keeping him alive for their purposes until he's deemed useless at last. | |

The fact that Harvey has Dissociative Identity Disorder makes her version of events possible, but Jane is both crazy and dishonest, and without a DNA test, it's impossible to know if she's telling the truth. | |

Multiple-Choice Past | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_a426ae28 | comment |
In the comics, Duela has a Multiple-Choice Past; first appearing under the alias of "The Joker's Daughter", she was revealed to actually be the daughter of Two-Face. Later doubt was shed on that, too, and she's claimed to be the daughter of various villains over the years, including the Penguin, the Riddler and even Doomsday, with the implication she's really related to none of the above. In this series, she is literally the Joker's daughter, and Jane Doe's, born when they were both at Arkham. It later turns out that Duela is Harvey Dent's daughter and Jane lied about her paternity, with the Joker's blessing, so that no one would dare mess with Duela. However, it's still a change from the comics, where Duela and Harvey had known they were related and Duela's mother had been Harvey's wife Gilda (until their relation was subject to yet another retcon). | |

Fake a Fight: A variation as Duela, Cullen and Harper blame Turner for setting them up and start a fight in the cell that has to be broken up by the cops. In the prison van, the trio reveal they knew right away Turner wasn't behind this and used the fight to lift items to break the cuffs. Of course, Turner is the one person who didn't realize the fight wasn't for real. | |

They start calling the other members of Ford's team... and several boxes around the squad room start ringing. This is Turner and Carrie's reaction when the Talon shows up. And Duela's reaction when the Talon impales her fence. | |

Abusive Parents | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Harper and Cullen ran away from home to escape their abusive father, an alcoholic who beat them. Their mother left home before that. Harvey Dent it turns out also had an abusive father with mental illness giving him totally different personalities, with one beating him for even the slightest thing and the other a perfect, loving man who'd been totally unaware of this. As per comics canon, Stephanie Brown's father is emotionally abusive, as is her mother when she's under the influence of the painkillers she's addicted to. Later her mother slaps her as well. In fact, most of the main characters' parents are either abusive, neglectful or literal villains (Harper and Cullen's parents, Stephanie's parents, Brody's parents, Duela's mother, Duela's father Harvey Dent in his alternate personality, Turner's biological parents), with the only exceptions being Carrie's mother Lisa Kelley and Turner's father Bruce Wayne, and the latter is a Posthumous Character. | |

Troubled Teen: Duela, Harper, and Cullen have been abandoned by their parental figures in one way or another, and have taken to stealing in order to survive. Stephanie's mother pops pills while drinking heavily and is constantly high/drunk and it's indicated that this is the reason Stephanie overextends herself in trying to support others. Turner and Carrie are slightly this trope to a lesser extent. | |

Adaptational Backstory Change: In the comics, Duela has a Multiple-Choice Past; first appearing under the alias of "The Joker's Daughter", she was revealed to actually be the daughter of Two-Face. Later doubt was shed on that, too, and she's claimed to be the daughter of various villains over the years, including the Penguin, the Riddler and even Doomsday, with the implication she's really related to none of the above. In this series, she is literally the Joker's daughter, and Jane Doe's, born when they were both at Arkham. It later turns out that Duela is Harvey Dent's daughter and Jane lied about her paternity, with the Joker's blessing, so that no one would dare mess with Duela. However, it's still a change from the comics, where Duela and Harvey had known they were related and Duela's mother had been Harvey's wife Gilda (until their relation was subject to yet another retcon). Bruce believed that Joe Chill was only a hired hand for the Court of Owls. This plays on an old take that mobster Lew Moxon had hired Chill to kill the Waynes as revenge for Thomas having him arrested. This series' version of Stephanie Brown has not yet become Spoiler, and her father Arthur appears to still be a reputable game-show host and not yet the supervillain Cluemaster. On the other hand, as in the comics, her mother Crystal has a drug addiction which causes Stephanie to avoid going home until after her mom is passed out. In Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Carrie's parents are a pair of white, drug-addled ex-hippies. In this show, she's black, and the daughter of a single mother who is a successful (albeit overworked) doctor. She was also apparently Bruce's first and only Robin. In the comics, Lincoln March is a name adopted by Batman villain Owlman, who is really Bruce Wayne's long-lost older brother Thomas Wayne Junior. Here, it's his real identity and the Marches are an old Gotham family. | |

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Turner is not thrilled about working with Duela, Harper and Cullen, nor are they particularly thrilled about working with him. The Rows don't always get along with Duela, either. None of them are excited when Turner brings in Stephanie and Carrie, as they don't think a pair of prep-school girls have the stomach for fighting the Court of Owls; in particular, Harper doesn't like Stephanie due to viewing her as a rich girl who doesn't know what she's doing. They all warm up to each other over time however. Carrie and Stephanie turn out to be very skilled, useful members of the team. Duela and Turner become a couple. Stephanie and Harper do too. Duela also becomes quite fond of Carrie. | |

Action Girl: Carrie Kelley, Duela Doe, and Harper Row are all very capable of kicking ass against grown policemen. Stephanie Brown later graduates to this status after training between episodes. | |

Ship Tease | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: As time goes on, Turner and Duela grow closer and show signs of attraction. Stephanie and Turner are very close friends and in "A Chill in Gotham" seem to be near the point of kissing after Turner thanks Steph for always believing in him, before she gets a call from Brody. Harper assumes (incorrectly) that they're already Friends with Benefits. This ship gets sunk in "Poison Pill" when Turner kisses Stephanie and she tells him she didn't feel any chemistry. Harper and Stephanie have some moments together as the former begins to warm up to the latter. Ultimately, they get together. | |

Miscarriage of Justice | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_ddeaea82 | comment |
Joe Chill says he was framed for murdering Thomas and Martha Wayne, having gotten hired simply to mug them (using an empty gun) then both were shot making it look like he'd done it. Turner believes this, and it appears to be true, but can't stop his execution. | |

Lost in Imitation | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_ea24a918 | comment |
Lost in Imitation: As in Batwoman, the Joker was killed by Batman in the backstory of this continuity (or so everyone thinks; neither version gives the specifics of what exactly happened). Like Batman Begins, the finale presents Henri Ducard as the head of an international league of assassins rather than just a corrupt Parisian detective as in the comics. It's not established whether he's an alias of Ra's al Ghul as in the film, but seems plausible. | |

Dirty Cop | |
Gotham Knights (2023) / int_eb251937 | comment |
Dirty Cop: Detective Ford was paid to kill Turner along with the other kids implicated in Bruce Wayne's murder. After they attempt to escape, he nearly does before they're rescued by Robin. In the fourth episode, it turns out he also prevented Bruce Wayne's lawyer from telling the authorities that the changes Bruce recently made to his will did not cut Turner out of it, which would have invalidated Turner's supposed motivation for having Bruce killed. In "Daddy Issues" Lincoln waltzing into the interrogation room while the Commissioner is "on her lunch break" has Stephanie realizing she's in the Court's pocket. | |

Locked Out of the Loop: At the outset, Turner has no idea that his adoptive dad is Batman, and certainly does not know that his classmate Carrie is actually Robin. | |

Not to mention Duela is drugged by her own mother so she can be turned in for the reward money and Rebecca has sent Talons to kill the Gotham Knights and has nefarious plans for Harvey. | |
