GOTHAMThe overnight numbers for "Gotham" are in, and it looks like the premiere of the Batman show without Batman did pretty well, scoring a 3.2 rating and 8 million viewers. It will be interesting to see how much of that audience is retained when the second episode hits next week.

X-MEN: APOCALYPSEAlthough it'd been rumored for months, Bryan Singer is confirmed to return as director for "X-Men: Apocalypse." The move isn't much of a surprise for Fox, considering Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past" holds the highest worldwide gross of the entire "X-Men" franchise at $746 million. Singer will direct a script by Simon Kinberg based on a story by the director, Michael Doherty and Dan Harris. Lauren Shuler Donner, Kinberg and Hutch Parker are set to produce.

Roger Dooley's role in "Agent Carter" is the head of the Strategic Scientific Reserve -- S.H.I.E.L.D.'s predecessor.

THE FLASHConsidering the amount of buzz surrounding "The Flash," it should come as little surprise that The CW has ordered three additional scripts, increasing the number of episodes from 13 to 16. The move, which comes before the show's premiere, is somewhat unusual, but can be seen as a vote of confidence from the network -- and it also means good news for viewers and fans, as it likely means the high quality of the pilot was maintained through the other completed episodes.

POWERSBrian Bendis revealed that Logan Browning, Andrew Sensenig and Justice Leak have joined the cast of "Powers" as Zora, Triphammer and Detective Kutter, respectively. Additionally, footage of the PlayStation Network adaptation is set to debut at New York Comic Con in October, with both Bendis and co-creator Michael Avon Oeming set to attend.

"From the minute he stepped onto the set Sharlto [Copley] has invested every part of himself into this role. He adds layers and layers into Christian Walker. He is doing everything I hoped he would do, which is make the television version of this character unique and exciting," Bendis said in a press release. "And Susan [Heyward], my god! From her very first audition she has embodied the character of Deena Pilgrim. I think people are going to be completely sucked in by both of their performances and unique perspectives on this world that Charlie Huston has built."
