Honest Thoughts: The Penguin
So, I absolutely love Reeves' The Batman. First movie where I repeatedly watched it a total of three times within the same year. It is absolutely fantastic and is probably up there with The Dark Knight as my favorite Batman film (I haven't seen Mask of the Phantasm, and I heard that's the best Batman film, but I promise I'll watch it as soon as I get it). Now as it is the beginning of a new cinematic universe for the Reeve's Batverse or just the Reevesverse, there would be some spin-offs and of course the eventual sequel with Part II coming out in 2026. As for spin-offs, there has been two of them, or at least one of them being canon. Th first being the DC Black Label series, "The Riddler: Year One" that follows the origins of Paul Dano's Edward Nashton from his childhood in one of Gotham's rundown orphanages to his adulthood and him discovering the corruption of Gotham and his terroristic ways as the Riddler. It's a pretty good series that is also written by Dano himself to give a more authentic feel for the character, although I have heard that this series might be non-canon, but I did enjoy this series as I really loved Dano's performance in the movie, especially in that Arkham interrogation scene. And now, there was the release of the Penguin series on Max that started last month just had its finale last Sunday.
Spoilers for the series itself, so if you haven't seen it yourself. Also, this isn't really much a review but rather just showing my thoughts on the show, hence "Honest Thoughts."
I should probably start by saying this: there is absolutely NO good guy in this show. There is a protagonist and an antagonist in here, but they're not heroes at all. Starting with Oz Cobb, which sidenote: yes, I know that there are some people that are mad that his last name isn't Cobblepot, but I always headcanon that as Cobblepot being an ancestral name that was then shortened down to Cobb when Oz's ancestors immigrated to the U.S. so there. Now with the name debacle aside, Oz is a scumbag. He is the worst character in this show with what he does to get more power, but when you watch the show, there will be times where you may sympathize or even cheer for him, but that's the sort of thing with him. He's a massive manipulative, megalomaniac that wants what he wants while pretending to be selfless to those around him. he would say how joining his gang would be beneficial to you and will help the lower class in how "Gotham belongs to us!"... before shooting you and tossing your body under the bus, just so he can make a quick escape. Now at first glance, there could be some merit to why he does this as he could've done it just to have his mother live a better life while making her be safe, especially since she's suffering from dementia. So maybe there is a noble cause to this, right? And then in episode 7, it revealed that Oz killed his two brothers as a kid, just so he can stay much closer to his mom and that his loving relationship with his mom is way creepier and disturbing than it seemed. It also doesn't help that his mom actually figured out that Oz killed her two sons and never said anything about and even thought about having someone kill him. AND TO TOP THAT OFF, that excuse may be false as he still denies that he killed them, even after knowing his mom found out the whole time. Meaning that this whole journey is just him being the most delusional and selfish guy who just wants more power to himself. There's also just the fact where he just gets lucky at times that just gets lucky out of confrontations, he's a cunning guy which why there's times where his metaphorical dominoes he sets up falls down as part of his plan, and then there's that time he gets out of a fight because his opponent gets a heart attack. There is just so many ways he seems to get caught and possibly get killed, but those moments never come to him. Colin Ferrell did a great job being oz again, he was already great in The Batman and seeing him come back is fantastic.
So, can Cristin Milioti get an Emmy for Best Lead Actress or at least a nomination, because holy crap, she is fantastic as Sofia! Starting as a simple revenge story against her family as they did nothing for her when she was sent to Arkham because of her father framing her for the multiple murders of female workers in the Iceberg Lounge that he actually committed as well of the death of her mother. There was her brother, Alberto, who actually shows up during visiting hours and telling her that he would get her out of there, although I do have a theory that he may be in on it too and was just saying that, so he won't end up like Sofia or worse. But I guess I won't know if that's true since Oz killed him in the beginning of the series. Sofia then kills her whole family, only sparing her cousin's daughter so she could live a better life away from the Falcone family, while Sofia becomes the new head of the crime family. HOWEVER, Sofia then realizes how when she was trying to make her young cousin stay in one of those rundown children's home with her not revealing that Sofia killed the Falcones (which is a "better" option than letting someone else go there and kill her) that Sofia is not that different than her father at that point. So, she ultimately decides to say screw it all and just leave Gotham after she kills Oz, only it to end with Oz and the rest of the gangs that work for him to kill Sofia's men and Oz frames her for all the gang wars in Gotham, which then ends with Sofia going back to Arkham, essentially full circle for her. Sofia is by far the most tragic character here in how she just wants to break free from the corruption in Gotham and how she won't change anything even if she tries hard enough, only for her to just stay in this living hell. She was also the main focus of my favorite episode in the whole series with episode 4, C'est Anni (if that's how it's spelled), that is about her first time in Arkham as well as her mass murder of the Falcone's. Also, shoutouts to the make-up and costume designers in the show for Sofia's transitioning in looks from a cleaner look during the flashback to how she ends up looking as in the show, with her frazzled hair and scars, just a dirtier and more weathered look. I also just liked her dresses and coats as well.
And then there's Vic. Poor, poor Vic. The heart of the whole show and the audience surrogate in viewing this big dark world of Gotham. The one person who can see some good in Oz and is still loyal to him, helping out with whatever he wants in the name of finally being remembered from this city. The one who can call Oz family after the death of his family from the citywide flood in the beginning of the third act in the Batman and would sacrifice everything for him, including breaking up with his girlfriend. All for it to end up with Vic to get killed by Oz himself. A pretty sad yet completely expected way for him to end up since again, Oz doesn't care about anyone, even those close to him. In the end, Vic was just another victim in this whole thing.
One final shoutout to Clancy Brown as Sal Maroni here. Clancy Brown is one of my favorite character actors, he is just great in everything. I mean c'mon, he was the best portrayal of Lex Luthor in Superman: TAS and the Justice League cartoons in the DCAU, of course he's great!
Great show, 9/10. Give Milioti her Emmy, she freakin deserves it. And can't wait for The Batman Part II in 2026 and whatever other series is being set in this universe as well.

W a t c h i n g
I think there's a life lesson for people to learn here. I think it's a lesson of kindness and friendship. More so, to be kind to people who's lives you might not understand, but to be kind to them. Be humane. Let people live their lives on their own terms.
Just shake someone's hand like you would anyone. Say hello or good afternoon. They're a human being like you. They have feelings and deserve to live any life they feel.
BE KIND. That's all it takes.

The Penguin And The Joker

The hauntingly elegant "Scherzo for a Flightless Bird" brings a dark, sophisticated edge to "The Penguin." With moody strings and a mischievous rhythm, this theme perfectly captures the duality of Oswald Cobblepot: both a cunning mastermind and an underworld survivor.
Fun fact: The use of scherzo—a musical term meaning "joke"—reflects The Penguin’s twisted humor and his unpredictable, dangerous nature.
Which Gotham character do you find most intriguing? Tell us below and tune into Kyle Meredith With 's TV In The Radio weeknights at 7:20.
