* BroadStrokes: Assuming the show is a prequel to ''Gotham'', this is the only real way to connect the two. While both shows operate with an AmbiguousTimePeriod, the final episode of ''Gotham'' implies the show took place in 2005-2009. Season 3 of ''Pennyworth'' set the show in 1972, around 33 years before the start of ''Gotham'' by which point Alfred, Martha, Thomas and Lucius would be an extreme example of being OlderThanTheyLook, with Bruce having to have been born when Martha and Thomas were in their 40s or even 50s. So it's more likely that the events of ''Pennyworth'' broadly happened in ''Gotham'' canon, but in a different time period. Of course given how ''Gotham'' intentionally had a timeless feel with multiple dates conflicting with each other, it might be an intentional case of ComicBookTime to have the the timeline conflict with each other.
