A rep for the Fox drama confirmed Smith’s return but declined to provide details about how the crime boss will resurface.

Fish was last seen in the Batman prequel’s Season 1 finale getting pushed into a watery grave by the Penguin. At the time, showrunner Bruno Heller hinted that the villainess could live to see another day. “I would definitely not assume anything in a town like Gotham,” the EP warned. “It’s very unpredictable, the comic book world.”

Especially when the folks at Indian Hill are conducting such Strange experiments.

Nooooooooooo! Her absence has been one of the best parts of Gotham’s second season.

I’m guessing this is where Hugo Strange comes in

Well considering Fish’s body wasn’t found i think we always knew there was a chance the character would come back sooner or later.Plus it could be interesting to see Fish gets revenge on Penguin for trying to kill her.

Yes! Loved her and missed her this season so much.

I’d rather they bring Jerome back. He was more fun.

Why? She is literally the reason I stopped watching this show. SO overdone.

It wasnt so much her or the character I disliked, but rather the whole crime boss storylines. If they can include her in another storyline, like maybe Hugo Strange, i think it would be fine.

I agree with Bill “ugh” that’s not only for the actress and the character but for the person too. Tsk, put me right off now.

Oh good grief honestly imo one of the worst elements of s1 and she’s back that’s not the headline I’d wanna see.

Honestly though, if they wrap up her storyline for good this season, then that’s great, then just always wonder “what if/what happened” to her character, bc we all knew she didn’t really die.

Yesssssss! I didn’t love the crime boss storyline she was attached to, but I loved Jada’s interpretation of Fish and the way it paid homage to Eartha Kitt’s Catwoman. I think she’ll be better served this season and in a different story setting. I haven’t watched Gotham in a while, but I’ll be sure to check out the episodes she is in.

Too bad. I strongly disliked the Fish character and was hoping she was gone permanently.

Ugh. Guess I’ll be fast forwarding a lot, if I watch at all. Hate her scenery chewing.

urgh no why do this? I was kinda enjoying Gotham again

Well that’s a shame. Her character was a drag on the show in season 1. It’s much better without her.

OMG I hated this character and her over acting…NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Shoot and I have been enjoying the show so much since she was killed off. Crud.
