Penguin

[Tonguez]

Im really liking the songtrack for this show, its very thematic.

So who’s Team Oz versus Team Sofia now? (For those who’ve seen Episode 4)

Im in for the Strange little girl

Y'all slight the Penguin at your own peril!

Holy crap what an ending

Agreed! If this leads into The Batman 2, I am there for it.

I'll say, the middle was kind of losing me. It started feeling like ye olde mobster story. The end really brought it back, but yeesh how dark and depressing. Overall, a great show.

And the Penguin is not so much of a joke villain anymore. He is dark, ruthless, twisted, and cunning.

I think they did a really great job of blending the different origins and looks over the years into the character. I can't help but think of the Crown Point tunnels as being a kind of call out to the Danny Devito version of the character living in the sewers. He's often seen carrying around the umbrella. There's the tuxedo. But now we actually have an origin for why he wears that kind of anachronistic tux, and it totally makes sense.

Cleaned up.
