**More of the Alfred Pennyworth we all know and love**
This TV Show surprised me as it shows Pennyworth of how he starts to deal with the Waynes and he previous life in the SAS before. I highly recommend this so far so good and it has got me hooked straight away hoping for more to come as I was so disappointed when Gotham ended.

Fantastic pilot episode - Paloma Faith brilliant. Looking forward to more.

Having a verdict on this show is tough. It's based on a comic book character, Alfred Pennyworth, yet doesn't feel anything like a show based on a character from a comic book. Each episode was enjoyable just enough, but I was never able to get invested. I don't know why. I'd probably watch a second season, though I'm not particularly looking forward to it. I hope it'll be in Gotham, maybe that'll make me more enthusiastic about watching it. The alternate universe setting in London wasn't that interesting or appealing.

I wasn't expecting much from this but ended up really enjoying it, it was extremely dark but funny at the same time, how some people have said that it wasn't realistic baffles me ,do they actually think that Batman etc are actually real ?

(Initial Impression) This looks promising. This is the backstory of Albert, the Wayne's butler, which it seems is all action and adventure (with a touch of romance). By and large, the actors are unknown to me but they do a marvellous job. Alfred and Esme have great chemistry. Poloma Faith is a menacing henchwoman. Great writing. Great performances. A very different feel to the other DC Universe series which may have to do with the British cast, period setting and locations. All together, a great start. Upon watching this pilot, I give the series an 8 (great) out of 10. I'm looking forward to the rest of this first season which is being released episodically. [Comic Book Backstory]

(End of First Season Impression) I really looked forward to each episode. It is very dark, violent and not shy with sexual content (which I could have done without) but it was well made, well performed and although the writing was over the top, flying away from the credible, the characters were well drawn and full. I raised my rating to 8.5 (really great) out of 10. Here's hoping for a second season. [Comic Book Backstory]

==Teen Titans Go! predicted this.==

Maybe the fiction that evokes the dark spirits of contemporary Britain best. The storytelling can wonder at times, but it's an entertaining, punchy tale with some endearing characters.

This is a show that has gone from very good to very bad from season two to season three... the last season was a very hard watch, mainly because of the story, which in my opinion was a real mess. Rightfully canceled...

I totally loved the show. And I don't care about how "realistically" it connected to the rest of DC universe and Batman. For me the show stands on it's own. It's a perfect comic book but told in the language of film -- the characters and the plot are over the top, it's all told with straight face in the mixture of British and Irish slang with that dark "British humor" and stylish cinematography. To me it feels a bit like Doctor Who. Not the story, but this strange world that is built there.
Unfortunately the show is cancelled. So, I guess I'm minority.

Season 1 is great, but it gets a bit messy after that. I’m really struggling to get through season 3, and some of the episodes are really quite awful.

traktv needs to mark this a ended

I decided to quit after the first season because, in the end, it wasn't at all what I thought it should. Other then the names I fail to see any connection to the Batman-Universe. And althought the plot is, in a weird way, interesting, it ultimately failed to peak my interest. So not really bad but not for me.

Enjoying it so far, just finished episode 6. Looking forward to the next 4. Dark, humorous and entertaining.

This is mainly a farce with no attempt at realism or plot consistency.

Good show up until last 2 episodes...then the writing gets weak. It's like they all just gave up & decided to write some nonsense.

Fantastic pilot.Below avg 2nd and 3rd.Then it gets on the fire!!

I’m sick of DC IP based shows and movies. They have been spinning-off a hundreds of them from every property they own.

I'll keep it very simple, season one: great fun, story, characters and introduction to major Batman figures, season two: total out of control story, and ridiculous and pointless ending... no season three for me, thank you very much!

The show is good and watchable but [spoiler] fuck thomas wayne he is very annoying both the character and the actor [/spoiler].

This has become one of my favorite shows! The casting is perfect &the storyline keeps me hooked! Bravo!

DC has always done well in the land of television. This show is no exception. I enjoy seeing an entirely different version of Alfred Pennyworth.

We usually only get to see him as an older, well-spoken and wise man. I'm glad it has the rating that it does; much like the recent Justice League release, the stories being told couldn't be told in any less a way.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this show so far.

Started off well but then the rating became lazy in S2.

Rather like it so far, however no decently bred young lady from the period would "F" and blind. Politicly its pure left wing propaganda.

This is a top 5 show for me! The storylines, acting, all top notch!
