The Penguin (2024) TV Thread

[Ginger Ted]

Farrell is just brilliant. One of the most incredible transformations that I've ever seen on screen — and I'm not just talking about make up and stuff (although these guys are amazing and should get all the awards).

 

[Mamacita]

This really is excellent. Real Sopranos vibe to it, the world feels credible and Farrell is spectacular (and I usually hate Farrell).

Going to watch Episode 5 tonight, the first 4 episodes have been excellent.

With his nascent operation at stake, Oz makes a desperate move to turn the tables. Meanwhile, Sofia strives to build a new legacy for herself.

Whilst not quite reaching the heights of E4, the fifth episode was not far off. Another cracking hour of telly. Roll on next week.

Episode 5 was another very very good episode. Hard to match the 4th episode but still did a very good job. Turning out to be one of the best shows of the year.

Cristin Milioti is an absolute star in this and she steals every scene she is in.

 

[Wanted]

Caught up with this, the last couple of episodes were incredible. Set up a really good finale.

 

[Black Sheep]

Fantastic series, loved it. I like that the villain was just that, a villain. Absolutely nowt redeeming about him, how most Batman enemies should be. Superb.

 

[Scotty G]

Jeez, the finale quickly reminded us that The Penguin is actually a villain and we shouldn't have been rooting for him for a second.
