Here's my FULL Penguin Episode 1 video and Batman Easter Eggs. Post all your reactions in the comments! My episode 2 video will post after they release it. Here's my new Thunderbolts Trailer video too! th-cam.com/video/LfkYRaoAyWo/w-d-xo.html
Very much so. Mega-props to the make-up artists and... To Colin Farrell - This is the best role he has ever conquered and the best performance he's ever given. He has done for the penguin what Heath Ledger did for the joker.
proves how bumbling he always has been always getting into trouble and figuring a way out he didn’t think about sophia and cleaning up being seen in his own car sophia mentions this at their first meeting
Didn't they maybe take this inspiration from the Gotham series? I think it was season 1 or 2, where Falcone's daughter is planning to take over his empire. Where she seduces Gordon into helping her. Regardless, it's pretty cool.
@@NEALBABBITT Yeah, one of the few shows that I enjoyed through and through. Though, the last two or three seasons felt more campy and whacky. Still, I could watch that series over and over. Really fun to watch.
Does anyone else feel like they watched a full-on Hollywood movie? I hope I'm not drinking Kool-Aid, but this was well done. Huge potential for this show. Would love more of this DC universe.
Sofia is terrifying BUT I absolutely loved how Oz started laughing when he heard her scream at discovering her brother’s body. You could really see the sickness that revels in pain and violence swirling in his gut.
The only thing I can say about "The Penguin" is that I predicted a long time ago that I think this will be the best streaming series of 2024, and the 1st episode did not disappoint. I really like this one!
@@HappyBob701 Actually, Snyderbots and a large majority of batinson haters were saying this show would flop. Not everbody thought this show would be good.
Art direction reminds me of Batman the Animated Series. God, I miss Kevin Conroy sooo much. November 10th will mark second anniversary of his passing. I got a voice acting background and his voice was an inspiration for me since BtAS.The vocal training was tough, without noticeable results but actors like them re a great impulse to not give up: was almost Leon in new RE games :)
The makeup on Colin Farrell for The Penguin is just fucking awesome and Ign gave Agatha an 8, She Hulk a 9, and the penguin gets a 5? Yeahh that’s how you know that penguin is actually a decent show for barely having 1 episode, it’s a good start.
Oz got a lil Marty Byrde in him the way he was talking himself out of those situations, I love it. This show is off to a great start I’m looking forward to see more
Absolutely was VERY pleased on how this first episode was, I am definitely happy for the Penguin series and as a whole just looking forward to returning to this universe after a long time
@HappyBob701 get laid. Anything. Cuz damn if ur that pissed over my post u really got nothing better in ur life do u. I feel sorry for u bob...truely..
I'm pretty sure I heard someone calls The Penguin "Oswald" in the episode, so Oz is confirmed to be short for Oswald. Cobb, on the other hand is probably his real last name in this universe.
It was a really good debut episode! Batman is my favorite DC comic book character so i am so excited to watch The Penguin be fleshed out more in his own tv series… i wish they were still doing the Arkham series🙃
@emergencyawesome You've had a busy couple of days man! 2 episode breakdowns for Agatha All Along, 1 for Rings of Power and this one for The Penguin and your level of quality and attention to detail remains at the highest level. Thank you for all you do!
Hey man I got to say I appreciate u really reading & answering the comments. Plus the content u put out is awesome. Keep up the good work we appreciate what u r doing.
Oz’s mom is a bad ass! This first episode was awesome. Wish Batman wad making an appearance but cool to see a story about penguin . Keep up the great work Charlie! 🐧
No mention of the Easter egg: Burgess Jeweler’s which was an ode to the actor Burgess Meredith who played the Penguin on the 1960’s Batman TV series. He also famously played Rocky’s trainer Mickey in the first three Rocky movies.
I really like the idea that Batman’s rouges should give off subtle instances where they relate to Bruce’s decisions. Victor and Jason Todd is perfect because it’s cognitive dissonance for us to love Jason Todd and his origin but hate Victor and his(?) they are one in the same. Let’s hope Mr Freeze (possibly in the sequel gets a good story relatable to Batman’s)
I watched this last night after the first two episodes of Agatha. Penguin blows away Agatha, hands down. The latter relies upon surprise appearances of certain characters and the implied promise of more to come. Basically, they're milking the shared universe concept and that's about 70% of the show's appeal and it's all novelty. Penguin was brilliant. The acting, the script, the sets, the coloration and production design were all brilliant and I'm sure I'm leaving some things out. This show felt like a feature length film in terms of its quality. I'll take that one step further and say it felt like a feature length film by Scorsese at his best. Side note. I think the brilliance of this being part of the Batman elseworld thing is brilliant because the person watching realizes there's no need to mentally pose questions like "Why don't they just call Superman?" and things of that nature. You have a very human hero in Batman, although not in this series if I heard right. You have very human villains like Penguin or, in the upcoming film, the Joaquin Phoenix Joker. It's a very grounded approach to the superhero genre and executed to near perfection.
@@daddydojang - I heard the same but that Phoenix and Gaga totally pull it off. Or, as Nicholson quoted Lennon in The Departed... "Give me a f'n tuba and I'll get something out of it." I have faith in the creative team over there and absolutely plan on investing in the free stream that will be online right after release and will watch it again when it streams on Max, which I do actually pay for.
What an amazing pilot. I was pleasantly surprised how great it was! I hope we see Poison Ivy, but as Pamela! That's my wish for surprise guest in this series.
For as good as episode 1 of the penguin was I'm surprised it took you this long to post a video I waited all day I swear to God and I checked twice while I was at work this is the best show I've seen in a long time I love it
sofia is amazing ngl, something abt her eyes. perfect way to write a character in my opinion, a strong scary one at that. especially with what we been getting in media recently
Farrell is so good in this I forget it's him playing the part. I really liked the first episode and look forward to how they develop characters with more time to do so.
I think aesthetically Gotham's look follows the lead of the Rocksteady games. You could tell Reeves was huge fan of the games, especially when The Batman encounters that first gang in the movie. Those gang members were plucked right out of the games. Cudos to Charlie..I was scratching my head as to who Mark Strong played after I saw his name in the credits.
I got to say this is the most hyped TV show. I’ve watched since House of Dragon. Sad too say , I won’t be able to watch the next episode because I ship out on the 30th this month can’t wait to come back and watch it‼️🔥🔥
Is the Penguin's name REALLY just Oz Cobb? Did Alberto Falcone not call him Oswald just before he was shot? That would suggest that the showrunner's only shortened his name for convenience but are still acknowledging his full name.
It is so grounded that Oz’s first reaction to Batman in the movie now totally makes sense to me. I liked the first time I saw it in the movie as well but now I really relate how they react to a man who dressed up as a bat. He is not their concern as long as he forces himself into it. Imagine now all the complicated things going on and Batman somehow needs to figure out who did what if he needs to interfere. I really love it. “Mr. Vengeance!” 🐧

Really looking forward to how Salvatore Maroni will play a huge role in this series as a whole , Mr Krabs himself Clancy brown
Really excited to see where this series goes and how it set up the next installment of the batman.
His name is Oswald ‘Oz’ Cobb think Sophia calls him by his full name Oswald at one point, if it wasn’t her, it was the brother.
@@brucelau2023 Not Italian looking or sounding but solid actor choice
@@Hotteststewpot His mom called him Oswald also. It was said about 3x in the episode, so yeah, Oz is his nickname.
Whoever wrote Penguins character dialogue is talented. Well written show.
Very much so.
Mega-props to the make-up artists and...
To Colin Farrell - This is the best role he has ever conquered and the best performance he's ever given.
He has done for the penguin what Heath Ledger did for the joker.
@@k.c.3567you aint lying
Absolutely 👑
Love penguin dropping Alberto body down the stairs
It was pretty funny watching him struggle then realize " wait I hate this guy who cares".
@@DeerJesus5267he’s like fuck he’s already dead who cares
Was thinking why doesn’t he just drop the body, for him to drop the body lol
proves how bumbling he always has been always getting into trouble and figuring a way out he didn’t think about sophia and cleaning up being seen in his own car sophia mentions this at their first meeting
Real cinema is back🗣️
We’re eating good these next few weeks between Penguin and Agatha All Along
Agatha is shit
Loving the Italian gangster vibes
It's not DC but you got Tulsa king season 2 as well
@@P1_M1NDI’ve watch it and actually enjoy is so far after being hesitant.. I can probably guess you haven’t actually seen it lol
I love Sofia Falcone as psychopathic killer in this series
Didn't they maybe take this inspiration from the Gotham series?
I think it was season 1 or 2, where Falcone's daughter is planning to take over his empire. Where she seduces Gordon into helping her.
Regardless, it's pretty cool.
@@julianmcmillan2867loved the Gotham series! This one's great so far too. I don't think the Gotham series has gotten the respect it deserved.
@@NEALBABBITT Yeah, one of the few shows that I enjoyed through and through.
Though, the last two or three seasons felt more campy and whacky.
Still, I could watch that series over and over. Really fun to watch.
Check out the Long Halloween and Dark Victory if you like Sofia Falcone.
@@julianmcmillan2867 I thought this storyline felt familiar. Its that.
I absolutely loved how they did Sophia falcone. Making her 1 sec away from going off the deep end. Love it!
She's meant to be totally unpredicatble, so penguin has a hard time predicting her moves.
Sofia is F-ing terrifying!
Love her crazy eyes👀
Does anyone else feel like they watched a full-on Hollywood movie? I hope I'm not drinking Kool-Aid, but this was well done. Huge potential for this show. Would love more of this DC universe.
yes i did especially the ending when it went off i had to make sure it was a show because i wanted more im so excited
Nah bro. This show cooked hard 😎🙌
This was better than the movie.
Was VERY surprised on how good this was. can’t wait for more episodes!
LFG! My episode 2 video will post after they release it. I explain the full schedule of episodes during this video.
@@emergencyawesome we did get like a sneak peek for it tho
@@brucelau2023and then we literally had the Batman movie
I was completely blown away. This is the direction DC (films) needs to adhere to moving forward.
Little interesting oswald met vic the same way batman met jason todd.
HAH! I caught that!
After Oz dumps Falcone's body, they park outside Burgess Jewelry. The OG Penguin was played by Burgess Meredith.
Beat me to it I was going to post same thing lol
Same- I’m surprised Charlie missed that
Good catch, guys!
Same!
GREAT CALL!!!
Sofia is terrifying BUT I absolutely loved how Oz started laughing when he heard her scream at discovering her brother’s body. You could really see the sickness that revels in pain and violence swirling in his gut.
This show is killing it hope we get a season 2
The only thing I can say about "The Penguin" is that I predicted a long time ago that I think this will be the best streaming series of 2024, and the 1st episode did not disappoint. I really like this one!
Awesome!
Wow clever you. Silly boy everyone thought that
@@HappyBob701 Actually, Snyderbots and a large majority of batinson haters were saying this show would flop. Not everbody thought this show would be good.
His mother calls him "Oswald".
My wild guess is the shipment of “New Drugs” will be “Venom” which could later bring Bane into the series.
Nice theory!
Art direction reminds me of Batman the Animated Series. God, I miss Kevin Conroy sooo much. November 10th will mark second anniversary of his passing. I got a voice acting background and his voice was an inspiration for me since BtAS.The vocal training was tough, without noticeable results but actors like them re a great impulse to not give up: was almost Leon in new RE games :)
I wish the Matt Reeves universe would continue. I love the mobster/dark grittiness. I still can't believe the Penguin make up. So good.
If it doesn't, blame james gunn
BRO!! How has HBO been sitting on something so Godamm good!! The slushy scene in the car was absolute masterclass! Thank you Charlie!
Penguin and Victor playing 4 dimensional chess
I wouldn’t go that far but he has a plan in mind, that’s for sure
The place where they get the slush puppies at the end is Mighty Micks Gym from Rocky. Mickey was played by Burgess Meredith. The OG Penguin.
The makeup on Colin Farrell for The Penguin is just fucking awesome and Ign gave Agatha an 8, She Hulk a 9, and the penguin gets a 5? Yeahh that’s how you know that penguin is actually a decent show for barely having 1 episode, it’s a good start.
Access media are a joke
Ohh brither shyt up incxel whining blah blah
At one point when the camera was zooming out from the city at the start of Penguin, it instantly gave me that Gotham series vibes.
Damn Mr Krabs is everywhere 😂
The scene when Oz was considering killing Vic and throwing him in the trunk with Alberto was tense.
I love how brutal this series is.
*Just like Gotham City.
The train sound made it terrifying
Oz got a lil Marty Byrde in him the way he was talking himself out of those situations, I love it. This show is off to a great start I’m looking forward to see more
Loving Penguin taking Victor under his wing
Victor trying to steal the wheels off Penguin's car is a homage to Jason Todd trying to the wheels off of the Batmobile
Absolutely was VERY pleased on how this first episode was, I am definitely happy for the Penguin series and as a whole just looking forward to returning to this universe after a long time
That was peak fiction right there. This first episode, omg, it was so. The cinematography, the plot everything was fucking peak.
They call him Oswald a few times
Mark strong was also Dr savanna in Shazam
Easter Egg that Penguin meets Victor the same way Batman met Jason Todd in the comics-when he tried to steal rims off the Batmobile 🦇
The episode was phenomenal cannot wait for more of it
I think "Victor Aguilar" might actually me Victor Zsasz
Charlie I've been waiting for this for so long it was as good as I think the rest will be. Collin is soooo good at penguin!!
Awesome! Colin Farrel is killing it so far!
Cool!!! Wow!!! Why don’t you get your mouth shut next time if you’re not going to add anything to the conversation
@@HappyBob701 k happy whatever u say. Glad u took ur own advice dickhd
@HappyBob701 get laid. Anything. Cuz damn if ur that pissed over my post u really got nothing better in ur life do u. I feel sorry for u bob...truely..
What an excellent show! The acting so superb you get taken away with the fact that you forget that that’s Colin and you forget there’s a Batman
I'm pretty sure I heard someone calls The Penguin "Oswald" in the episode, so Oz is confirmed to be short for Oswald. Cobb, on the other hand is probably his real last name in this universe.
Correct. His Mom called him Oswald.
First episode was fantastic, really looking forward to the rest of the series
It was a really good debut episode! Batman is my favorite DC comic book character so i am so excited to watch The Penguin be fleshed out more in his own tv series… i wish they were still doing the Arkham series🙃
Penguin is ruthless shady violent sympathetic and sad him giving the mom that massive necklace was cute very fun show.
Haven’t been this hyped since The Flash season 1
I been waiting for this breakdown
Thanks!
@emergencyawesome
You've had a busy couple of days man!
2 episode breakdowns for Agatha All Along, 1 for Rings of Power and this one for The Penguin and your level of quality and attention to detail remains at the highest level.
Thank you for all you do!

Oz’s mom is a bad ass! This first episode was awesome. Wish Batman wad making an appearance but cool to see a story about penguin . Keep up the great work Charlie! 🐧
She's hardcore!
i think she comes from money but was slighted and she wants it back and he’s her way

Its about time they come out with a good show like this gas me hooked already 10/10 big marvel fan but it looks like I'm a be watch8ng more dc content

The BEST of DC.
Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti are amazing so far. Very excited to see where this goes. Bravo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Best single episode I've seen of ANYTHING in recent times. Brilliant!
Come on guys auto tap that thumbs up you know charlies the best..
Loved it..cant wait for more episodes😀😀😀😀
What a great start, had me hooked right in from the beginning
It had the look of a movie at the theater I give it 5 stars. Great video Charlie 👍
It’d be cool when they hit season finally and they reveal the Batman at the end and his new suit, I think that would be perfect.

“I played this stinking city, like a harp from hell! Wa-ha-ha!”
Forget the critics this is good
This episode was so well done I gatta give it to Colin ! This show has my attention no doubt I love seeing Gotham in this show love it
Awesome!
Easter egg. The penguin parked in front of a Jewelry store named Burgess. After the original penguin actor.
Chef's kiss on this episode honestly. Im so hyped for the rest of it.
Awesome!
Definitely like the way it started thus far💯👍🏾💪🏾🫡
Glad to have you reviewing this show , your opinion and reaction are excellent 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks again!
i have a feeling Victor will become Victor Zaaz
I was thinking thr same. As he gets older then shave is head and everything
I loved the "room for improvement" line from Oz at the end of the episode.
Just started the series so I gotta start watching these videos starting here!! Just finished episode 1
Cristin Milioti is scaring the $hit out of any man in her life right now with her Sofia Falcone role.
Havent watched An Emergency Awesome recap in years glad to be back
What an episode! Loved every minute of it!
I love it!! Probably one of the best shows I’ve watch in a while!
I watched this 1st episode yesterday. It was great.
I got to say this is the most hyped TV show. I’ve watched since House of Dragon. Sad too say , I won’t be able to watch the next episode because I ship out on the 30th this month can’t wait to come back and watch it‼️🔥🔥
vic and oz’s relationship is great and will be the spine of the series

Gotta love Chuck. You have the most charitable takes and it’s refreshing as heck honestly
Was waiting for this video ✌👍
Sofia absolutely stole every scene man I love her so much
I hope they do a season two
Thanks Charlie he looks great as Penguin
Calling it now, the new drug is an early version of scarecrow spear toxin, or the venom serum
This show is going to be amazing. The first episode was really really good. I watched it twice. I am genuinely excited to see what happens next.
Awesome!
The Batman was awesome 😊
Hey Charlie! Happy Friday, this was a good episode!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Happy Friday! It was a great start!
Thank you for these episode breakdowns. 😃
They did a great job with this.
I get HEAVY AL Capone from the penguin
Loved it. It's a Mafia show in the Batman universe
Very well stated.
the bus hit is a call back to the bus hit in dark knight, too.
Haven’t seen a show with such incredible dialog writing in a long time!
Thank you
