streaming episodic show about the famous batman villain. It is intertwined with The Batman story played by Robert Pattison.

I've only seen episode 1 and I thought it was fantastic. Farrell is a great actor who disappears in this role. Much more of a very good mob story than a comic book adaptation.

Yeah very mod related. Agree on Colin. I may watch more of it.

So far it’s good on a standalone basis. Ignore any of the comic book characters and it’s been a couple good episodes for a standard mafia show. You’d have no idea it’s a Batman thing without a couple references sprinkled in.

Glad to see there's a new comic book show out. We don't have enough of those.

And it’s about time they cover Gotham City!

Watched first episode about a week ago. I'm going to keep going with it. Really like the dark Penguin character and Farrell has been fantastic, the makeup and his mannerisms are incredible.

How "woke" have they made the Penguin in this?

Again I've only watched one episode but he's pretty much a dirtbag mid-level mobster with a deformed foot. He kind of has a heart of gold underneath with some scenes with his mother and a kid he finds vandalizing his car but he's only nice when it serves him.

He hires a gay adolescent Latinx kid with a stutter to be his bodyman within the first 10 minutes.

Now I'm interested in this show.

The first two episodes have been very good. As others have said, aside from a couple of references it’s easy to forget you’re watching something that is part of the Batman universe.

It's ok but I liked it better when they called it The Sopranos.

I couldn't figure out if Colin was playing Tony or Robert DeNiro. Most of the time it's Tony but sometimes DeNiro kicks in....a li'l bit.

You'll like it. It's much more Godfather in its themes and has no resemblance to a comic book story

I watched the first episode last night. I'm in.

I am all caught up on shows and waiting for Sunday nights for the new drops. It is the best show I have seen in a long time. Very intense and there is always a payoff so far.

Just finished episode 6 and it’s still holding up well. They were down in the subway tunnels and I see one of the products I manage. It wouldn’t make much sense that they’d have a brand new one down in the tunnels but our product placement folks got it done I guess.

Episode 8 was mainly the backstory of Oz and what happened to his brothers. Finale shaping up to be pretty interesting and I honestly have no idea what is going to happen.

Do they still have those at ORD? It has been a while since I've needed to visit a stall there.

For some reason I recall back in the day the toilet seat cover contract was quite desirable.

Wrapped up the series, I was very impressed with it. Recommended for any Batman fans.
