Gotham stands out among its contemporary DC brethren (e.g. Flash, Arrow, Supergirl, et al), not by taking itself too seriously, but by striking a perfect balance. It knows its inherently silly to see men and women prancing around in costumes, calling themselves by special names, but it never gives in to self-mockery. Season 4 is in good form, gently pushing Bruce to the forefront as the hero he'll eventually become. The cast continues to do well, in particular Sean Pertwee's Alfred and Ben McKenzie's James Gordon. Overall, a great show that continues to entertain.

I've enjoyed the first three seasons of Gotham, and was pleased by the fourth season, although some reviewers gave it poor marks. The show does a good job balancing the large ensemble cast. Although not every character gets an episode centered around him or her, I think most of the characters had good material to work with throughout the course of the season.

Great mixture of "Hill Street Blues" or "NYPD Blue" and DC origin Batman story-lines. Without gross Fish Mooney (sorry, Will Smith, husband of Jada Pinkett Smith), DC origin show improves on well-made Season 1 and all others. Every season (despite painfully hard-to-watch Fish Mooney) always made for enjoyable crime drama and DC Universe adventure.
