'Gotham' TV Spoilers: Series A Mix Of 'Batman' TV Show And 'Dark Knight' Movies; Two-Face Joins Series

"Gotham" TV spoilers hint of the series falling somewhere in between the "Batman" TV show and the "Dark Knight" movies, as Two-Face joins the series.

Creator Bruno Heller talked "Gotham" TV spoilers to TVGuide when he was asked about the overall tone of the series.

"If it fell anywhere, it's between those two in the sense that it pays due homage to the dystopian world of modern Batman, but it also has some of the humor and fun of the old show. You couldn't do a campy show like Adam West's Batman anymore, nor would a bleak, dystopian version of the story work on TV," he said.

Bruno Heller also said that the TV series will be in a serialized format because it's easier to tell the story that way.

"But it's about cops, so there's a procedural stand-alone element every week. This is not ancient history; even the general audience has a basic understanding. As much as we want to pay due respect to the fans, the show is designed to work both ways," he said.

He said "Gotham," unlike other superhero shows, is about heroes or ordinary men and women faced with extraordinary circumstances and doing the right thing.

Meanwhile, DigitalSpy dished out more "Gotham" TV series when it reported that Harvey Dent also known as the villain Two-Face will be introduced to fans during the pilot season. Reportedly, he will be "slightly older" than Bruce Wayne who will still be 12 years old.

The website also revealed another villain that Gotham will deal with Hugo Strange as well as the history behind the Arkham Asylum.

"Hugo Strange is going to pop up because we're going to start dealing with how Arkham was created and why Arkham was created in the way that it was," the series creator said.
