Much better than I thought it would be based on some of the negative reviews here. So good that I watched the first two seasons over a long weekend.
Very enjoyable and fun to watch
Can’t wait for season 3 to come out. Great premise for a show with some similarities to shows like Lost and Wayward Pines, but different enough that it didn’t feel like I was watching the same show. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes horror/mystery type shows with a little bit of gore. I just hope there are more seasons, or at least enough that we get answers to all the questions I still have.
One of the best series I’ve seen in a while
The DC Studios logo is placed in a rainy Gotham alley
Following the events of The Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka the Penguin, attempts to take over Gotham’s underworld. From melting makeup to filming in freezing temperatures, Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti talk about getting into character while filming “The Penguin.” Colin Farrell fought to have his version of the Penguin smoke tobacco in The Batman (2022), but was unsuccessful. For his own series, however, the character is depicted as a casual tobacco user, with a preference for cigars. An umbrella falls and the logo transforms into the Warner Bros. logo.
Starring in Graham Norton and the Fans: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024)
The new HBO series The Penguin, a spin-off from Matt Reeves’ The Batman (2022) is a thrilling dive into the criminal underworld of Gotham City. Directed by Colin Farrell as the title character Oswald Cobblepot, aka The Penguin, the series expands on the dark and gritty tone set by the film and offers fans a new yet familiar experience in the Batman universe. Unlike most superhero content, The Penguin focuses on the darker, more human elements of Gotham’s criminal underworld, moving away from the caped crusader to highlight the rise of one of Batman’s most notorious foes. Story Set immediately after the events of The Batman, the series explores Penguin’s journey to fill the power vacuum left in Gotham’s criminal empire. With the death of Carmine Falcone and Gotham’s infrastructure in chaos, Penguin seizes the opportunity to rise through the ranks, determined to assert his control over the city’s crime syndicates.
Colin Farrell’s Performance Colin Farrell’s portrayal of The Penguin is nothing short of remarkable
His transformation from underboss to crime lord is the main focus, giving The Penguin a mob drama vibe more akin to The Sopranos than a traditional superhero series. The show smartly avoids leaning too heavily on Batman’s shadow, allowing The Penguin to really shine as a main character. Without the overbearing presence of Gotham’s protector, it creates a new and interesting dynamic, where Oswald is free to operate in a morally ambiguous space. This narrative shift feels new for the genre, and adds depth to Gotham’s crime world without focusing too much on superhero spectacle. Physically unrecognizable in his prosthetic makeup, Farrell fully inhabits the character with a nuanced performance that balances the brutality of a mob boss with the insecurities and ambition that drive him.
Farrell brings layers to the character, going beyond the stereotypical villain portrait
The Penguin is no longer just a caricature of a deformed, umbrella-wielding villain; instead, he is portrayed as a ruthless, calculating player in Gotham’s criminal hierarchy, making him both terrifying and oddly sympathetic. His Oswald Cobblepot is cunning, manipulative, and ready to break bones, but he is also a man driven by a deep-rooted inferiority complex and a desire for respect. Watching him navigate the dangerous waters of Gotham’s crime world is compelling and offers a grounded approach to character, making The Penguin a fascinating character study. A Raw Atmosphere and Tone In terms of atmosphere, The Penguin maintains the same gritty, rainy aesthetic that fans loved about The Batman. The dark, crime-ridden streets of Gotham are beautifully filmed, with an emphasis on realism over comic book extravagance.
The tone of the series is dark, violent, and charged with tension, reminiscent of neo-noir crime thrillers
Every scene is steeped in Gotham’s corruption and decay, and it feels like danger lurks in every shadow. The production design is top-notch, with sets that feel like a natural extension of Keanu Reeves’ Gotham City. The seedy clubs, dilapidated alleyways, and lavish mansions of crime lords all contribute to the show’s immersive atmosphere.
According to Ronald D
Clare Beauchamp Randall, a World War II nurse, mysteriously travels back in time to 1743 Scotland. There she meets a brave Highland warrior and is drawn into an epic rebellion.. Moore (the developer of the TV series), his crew decided to keep the Gaelic words instead of translating them into English.
In several episodes, the characters say OK
This maintains the first person narrative by showing Clare’s inability to understand Gaelic. This idea was suggested by producer David Brown, who said he had seen something similar in Skin Deep (1998), a foreign alternative film starring actor and singer Gustavo Goular. ; An American term that did not come into use until the 19th century.
The theme song changes from season to season to reflect what is happening in the storyline
In the first half of Season 2 (which takes place in France), some of the texts are in French. In the second half of Season 2 (which is mostly about preparing for war), a militaristic drum is added to the opening song. During Season 3, tribal drums were added as much of the season is set in the West Indies.

I devoured the entire series and loved it!
At first I thought it was a women only show but I was very wrong. This show has something for everyone and I’m glad I finally gave it a chance because it has become one of my favorite shows!
