The Penguin: HBOMax

It's not that I need Batman to show up. Gotham was great without "Batman" really showing up and frankly outside of Arrow which was pretty good, I thought all those DC shows in the Arrowverse were pretty meh.

Anyway, I think The Penguin is a good show, I was just expecting something more in line with Gotham and this is just pretty straight gritty realism. I mean change his nickname to something else and always call the Falcone's the Gigante's and the show wouldn't be any different from just a regular mob drama. Which is good for what it is, but just not what I was expecting or looking for right now.
It's not like they hid the fact that Matt Reeve's Batman universe is grounded just like Nolan's and that he's focusing on the mob. I'm guessing you didn't see the movie or read any articles talking about it.
