I wouldn't mind not seeing the Joker at all. He's my favorite Batman villain, but he's also the one most closely linked to Batman. I think that's why they keep his origin so ambiguous because who he was before he became Batman's nemesis isn't really important.

easter eggs
When Bullock comes across a tip on the late Martha Wayne’s missing pearls, he instructs Jim to meet him at the corner of “4th and Grundy.” The address is a reference to the immortal DC Comics villain Solomon Grundy, named after the nursery rhyme and a regular foe to both Batman and Superman.

When you’re telling a story centered on Gotham City and Bruce Wayne, any character known for telling jokes is going to be under increased scrutiny …Which is why it didn’t take long for Jon Beavers’ role as ‘Comedian’ in Fish Mooney’s club to ruffle some feathers – especially since Alan Moore’s “The Killing Joke” graphic novel offered one origin story for the Joker: an aspiring stand-up comedian.
Yet another character introduced in “Batman: Year One” rounds out the latest tale of Gotham’s ‘early years,’ with Carmine Falcone (John Doman) revealed as the head of organized crime in the city. The version of ‘The Roman’ seen in the first episode reveals much about Jim Gordon’s father, but also seems to stick closer to the character’s Italian-American roots than that of Batman Begins.
In what we can expect will be the first of many veiled allusions to Batman villains and supporting characters, Gordon and Bullock’s first trip to Fish Mooney’s nightclub offers up one sizable hint. We speak, of course, of the dancers clad in revealing, red and black outfits on stage. Besides those colors being inextricably linked to the Joker’s partner-in-crime Harley Quinn, the fact that the stage will later be used for a similar hint means fans have reason to hope.

I wonder how far they'll go with the villains, will it be strictly human villains? Or will they expand and use some of the super human/mutant villains? (Clay Face,Killer Croc, Mr.Freeze)

Jim Gordon needs to get a personality and fast
We went from Gary Goldman and Bryan Cranston to boring cop from Sutherland

It’s a hard cameo to miss, but it looks like not all of Gotham’s villains will originate on the streets. In the case of Ed Nygma a.k.a. The Riddler (Corey Michael Smith), the villain began his obsessions with riddles in the city’s own crime lab. For now, we can only guess what mysteries lie in that scribble-filled notebook he holds, but it’s obvious Gordon’s wit has his attention already.
