Season Three of Gotham began airing on the FOX Network on Monday evenings at 8:00, beginning on September 19th, 2016. Season three was marketed under the banner of "Mad City". The season saw the return of most of the main cast from season two including Ben McKenzie as James Gordon, Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock, David Mazouz as Bruce Wayne (as well as his long-haired genetically developed doppelganger), Morena Baccarin as Leslie Thompkins, Sean Pertwee as Alfred Pennyworth, Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot, Erin Richards as Barbara Kean, Camren Bicondova as Selina Kyle, Cory Michael Smith as Edward Nygma, Jessica Lucas as Tabitha Galavan, and Drew Powell as Butch Gilzean. New additions to the season three main line-up include Chris Chalk as Lucius Fox, and Michael Chiklis as Captain Nathaniel Barnes, both of whom were notable guest stars in season two. Actress Maggie Geha is added to the main cast line-up beginning with the second episode of the season, "Burn the Witch".
Season three picks up six months after the events of "Wrath of the Villains". Jim Gordon is now a bounty hunter (Whaaaat?) and Fish Mooney is back in action, raising Hell in Gotham with her gang of fellow Arkham Asylum escapees, who are all super-powered freaks. Oswald Cobblepot is once again trying to solidify his power base in Gotham, while Bruce Wayne tries to expose the existence of a secret cabal that he believes is running Gotham. And little Ivy Pepper grows up - in a big way!
