Update: E4 Picks Up ‘Gotham’ Season 4 To Air In The UK In April!
E4 Picks Up ‘Gotham’!
It’s taken a while, but ‘Gotham‘ Season 4 FINALLY has a new UK tv home, on the channel it really should have been on from the start – E4.
The early years of “The Dark Knight” has been missing from our screens ever since Channel 5 dropped the series after 2 seasons. The 3rd season then ran on Netflix but hasn’t had a TV airing. Channel 4 has confirmed it is Season 4 they are starting with. For those of you needing to catch up with Season 3 of the show, as I said, it is on Netflix UK, but is also available on disc from £15 on Amazon, or you can find it from around £9 if you do some searching on eBay.
‘Gotham’ follows the story of GCPD’s Jim Gordon and the young Bruce Wayne before he donned the cowl and his voice got all gravelly.
As we enter Season 4 we see the criminal landscape of Gotham shifting into the more familiar set up we know from the comics, with Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) at the forefront of the fight against the city’s most depraved and unhinged villains. While Gotham City fights for normalcy, a new hero will rise, as Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) begins to assume responsibility for the city’s well-being.
This season sees Robin Lord Taylor return as The Penguin, Cory Michael Smith back as Edward Nygma/Riddler, and Camren Bicondova as Selina Kyle. Erin Richards also returns as Barbara Kean, Jessica Lucas is back as Tabitha Galavan/Tigress, and Drew Powell returns as Butch. Maggie Geha returns as Poison Ivy, although after her encounter with a monster from Indian Hill, she finds herself ageing once again…
The trailer which ran originally said ‘Gotham’ would be “coming soon” to E4. E4 have now confirmed, ‘Gotham‘ Season 4 will be coming in April 2018. Exact date TBC.

I have we even had Season 3 yet.
I thought Channel 5 only broadcast season 1 and 2
Great news. Completely agree that E4 or a similar channel should have had the rights to Gotham from the beginning. Ironically I think Channel 5 still hold the rights to season 3, so for those who haven’t managed to catch it on Netflix, I understand your frustration of season 3 not being broadcast first, but at least Gotham now has a new home where it will be shown properly and not buried in the schedules and then forgotten.
being serious – how does channel5 exist – its full of rubbish, royal suck up programs, washed up celebs on barges,boating,holidays paid for by the sucker punched public, even the xfiles will leave C5 for netflix I promise. what is the point of channel5 – riddle that one for yourselves.
You got big brother and celebrity big brother as well it’s the biggest piece of success they’ve ever had after moving from channel four. I’d find quite rubbish as I seem to turn over after ten minutes with Rylan Clark Neal from X factor who won CBB once. As with NCIS as C5 seem to shown it since 2006 but this year the actual long running series is moving to 5USA due to their original rubbish programming that is taking over and becoming more like Channel 4 like they did back in the day apart from movies and old shows such as Knight Rider and The A-Team.
The X-Files still had a contract with Channel 5 when it was renewed and we do not know about if NCIS New Orleans season 3 part 2 to when will it be shown, the last time it got shown was way back before Christmas on the 16th of December 2017 then a week later we get rubbish Jane McDonald and that old edited Chas n Dave repeat with the chalkboard sketch and Jim Davidson that got the chop!
The saying goes – cream floats to the top but so does crap.
I feel sorry for todays audiences – I’m only 23 & I’ve seen the vast difference in TV output, I grew up with the xfiles,angel – really cool things & now its so – everythings moral & politcal – its why I love gotham its quite immoral & doesn’t preach.
I watch the a team etc I love tthose – the old battlestar galactica was good, the new one sucked. shitty humans – cylons & metal & evil not human. I’ve even loved seeing the old sgt bilkos & sherlock holmes Basil rathbone films so old & yet so funny in its non pc humor, pc wasn’t even thought of then.
I think we should bombard c5 – make sure there 21st year is ther last of there existance, wipe them out walking dead negan style.
ha ha ha
Thank you E4 – supernatural,the 100 & now gotham – channel5 really should go bankrupt – I hate C5 – waste of time,life & energy – tip petrol on it & light the blue touch paper.
More news to be announced this coming Monday:

Definitely good news for Gotham fans, I was expecting to have to wait until next year to see Season 4 on Netflix. E4 is pretty much the only UK channel that takes US shows like Gotham seriously, and will show them in appropriate time slots (not before the watershed where some scenes will have to be cut out). Other channels will treat them like kids shows when they’re not, Channel 4 did this in the past with shows like Angel.
Gotham really should have been on E4 in the first place, since E4 has an established audience for US shows like this. Channel 5 doesn’t. Channel 5 are always messing around with US shows yet act surprised, when the audience for Gotham goes elsewhere because they’re tired of waiting for Season 3. I’m surprised E4 aren’t showing Season 3 beforehand to let viewers who don’t have Netflix “catch up” on it. E4 is SD-only unless you have pay TV but I’d rather watch in SD than not at all.
Seems silly to skip season 3 and go straight to season 4 as not everybody has netflix so it would be hard to understand what is going on
It is about time for gotham to come back as it is long overdue and as you say we loose out on season 3 so why cant you put season 3 on first.
You could always sign up to Netflix as the first month offers a free trial
thats what I did afterwards – enjoyed it the second time more. its avioding spoilers thats the nightmare – I avoided all last jedi spoilers – only for bloody youtube to put up so&so dies & ruined the experience.
Dodgy youtube stream are a law on themselves – I watched PEru & croatia on Friday & got bombarded with sports betting apps to the pc & mobiles, mums not happy – was when I said peru won though.
