Meanwhile Dolphin Tale 2, starring America's sweetheart, Morgan Freeman came in at a not so exciting second place. Meanwhile, the comedy that could, Let's be Cops, held on for another weekend at number 5.

We all know how excited we all are for the highly anticipated new Batman show Gotham, coming this fall, and the Television Critics Association couldn't agree more! They have voted Gotham to be their "most promising" new series of the season.

For those out of the loop, Gotham focuses on detective Jim Gordon and his search for the killer of a young Bruce Wayne's parents. In his adventures he faces off with young versions of famous villains: Catwoman, Penguin, the Joker and Mr. Freeze among others.
