I'm actually enjoying The Penguin well enough. I know it's technically capeshit, but it's really more just a fun gangster story that happens to be set in the Batman world.

Watching Scavengers' Reign, and I think it's one of the best animated series ever made, particularly in the west. I love all the creatures.

I've enjoyed Penguin too, despite some hammy genre tropes and going into it prepared for disappointment. I keep forgetting that it's Colin Farrell under prosthetics. I just watched him in Sugar recently and still had to double check he was actually in the role when the first ep started. Anyway, I decided I was sold on it when

played during the outro of this week's episode, what a banger. Same as the episode of Sugar that played
music spoiler"Da Funk" lol
