(spoilers) Thoughts after binge-watching season 2 in three days

I thought it was mostly great and even better than the first season but I think there are two big issues...

• I MUCH prefer it when they leave out the more outlandish and sci-fi/fantasy elements. I get that it's a comic book show and has to be heightened to an extent but resurrection, dinosaur hands and superpowers feel jarring to the general tone of the show. What I love about the Batman mythos is that it can be fairly gritty because most of the characters don't have superpowers.

• The show has now become so heightened and colourful, with most of the big supervillains now in place, I feel like they might as well soon skip forwards ten years in time and make it a proper Batman show. If they just recast a few roles with older actors and maybe cut some episodes for budgetary reasons it could be the biggest show on television.
