‘Gotham’ ends on high note as Dark Knight rises

Cheers to “Gotham” … for its batty ending. Fox’s April 25 series finale was a biff-bang-pow! joy fueled by a full-on Joker, Ben McKenzie’s subtly seasoned Gordon and a mostly unseen Caped Crusader who seemed up for the job of protecting our beloved city.

Jeers to “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” … for going to the dogs. Usually, we’re all about the Bravo ladies’ pack mentality, but their whining about Dorit dumping a pooch and Lisa seemingly leaking the story has us ready to roll over and play dead.

Cheers to “Jeopardy!” … for finding a winning way to keep us tuning in. With his $1 million-plus run and often off-putting demeanor, contestant James Holzhauer has — without question — given the game-show staple some real buzz.

Jeers to the Daytime Emmys … for being shut out by the networks. Again. The annual celebration of TV’s early shift has been relegated to airing online since 2016, even though the shows honored — such as big winner “General Hospital” — all run on broadcast or cable. Nice way to take care of your own, folks!
