In this episode we step into the seedy streets of Gotham City to review HBO Max's gripping crime drama The Penguin. With Colin Farrell reprising his role as Oswald Cobblepot, we dissect his transformation from a clever gangster into one of Gotham’s most feared crime lords, picking up where The Batman (2022) left off.
Drawing from our teacher instincts, we use our trusty "Post Observation Questions" to analyze the show’s gritty atmosphere, standout performances, and jaw-dropping moments. From the “Senior Quote” best lines to the most “Google Slides perfect” rewatchable scenes, we highlight what makes The Penguin a dark gem in Gotham’s lore. Plus, we debate the pacing and ponder the show’s future in “Are we teaching this again next year?”
Tune in for a final grade on this critically acclaimed series and our thoughts on whether Oswald Cobblepot’s story deserves a Season 2. It’s a lesson in villainy, power struggles, and why Gotham’s underworld is as captivating as ever!
