Gotham TV show: FOX Network receives the go ahead for a Batman (Prequel) series

Gotham TV show: FOX Network receives the go ahead for a Batman (Prequel) series
DC Comics, you're doing it wrong again. It seems DC Comics seems to keep shooting themselves in the foot with their live action stuff.
From Ace Showbiz.com ((Dubbed "Gotham", the show will explore the origin stories of Commissioner James Gordon and the villains that made the fictitious American city famous. In the story, Gordon who was portrayed by Gary Oldman in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, is still a detective with the Gotham City Police Department and has yet to meet Batman, who won't be part of the show.  ))
Yes, that sounds like a good and interesting idea. And, that seems to great way to convey some good stories and arcs. How does this fit with their live movie universe? So, now you will have two live action series (Arrow) set in universes outside the universe you're trying to build in your movies. It just seems counter what you're trying to bring forward. Marvel has the balls to bring the Shield show into the Marvel movie universe, thus making it a richer place to tell stories.
Plus, this show is going to be on FOX. You're just asking for the show to be messed with or canceled.
I wish it well, but you can't do much with it being on FOX. I think HBO would have been a better fit.
