Gotham: Dissecting The Characters Of The Batman Prequel

I think it's safe to say that Gotham is one of the most highly anticipated new shows premiering this fall. The Batman prequel is brought to us by The Mentalist’s Bruno Heller and is hoping to showcase some of the most admired and feared characters in the history of comic books, television and movies.

Portrayed By: Frank Gorshin, John Astin, Jim Carrey

Current Actor: Cory Michael Smith

What to Expect: Riddle me this. While we don’t get to see Cory Michael Smith’s true Riddler skills in the pilot, we do get to see him portray Edward Nygma. As a forensic scientist with Gotham PD, Nygma is an intelligent man working for the “good” side. He’s a chatterbox, who likes to give details in a roundabout way — I guess you could say that’s his way of telling riddles. Even though we only encounter Edward for a few short moments, he’s an intriguing man that I’m sure viewers will want to hear and see more from.

He’s quirky. He’s geeky and he’s awkward. Yep, I have a strong feeling Smith is going to make one kick-ass Edward Nygma.
