Just started watching this. Very compelling series so far; superb acting by Colin Farrell. Third episode drops later today.
We deserve better.

This is the best series so far! The latest episode finally brings us an origin story of Oz. Psycho talaga.  Great casting. Love the accents.

^ Agree 100%. I'm eager to find out how this series ends.

Too bad it's wrapping up next week. At least there's Dune: Prophecy to look forward to soon after.

Just started watching over the weekend. Outstanding production design and acting -- Colin Farrell will add an Emmy to his trophy cabinet.

Last episode is about to drop.

That was an excellent season finale. Didn’t expect certain storylines to end up that way.

The actress who plays Sofia Falcone - Cristin Milioti - deserves acting nominations/awards too. Those are scary eyes.

I honestly don't remember seeing her before but she's been a revelation in this series.  I am quite sure she will be getting better roles soon.

Late start for me. Just finished episode 1. Noticed the nice tribute to 60's Penguin actor Burgess Meredith with the Burgess Jewelry store.

Finished the series yesterday lang and have to agree that this is an excellent show with some remarkable acting from Colin Farrell, Cristin Milioti and company. Kudos also to the prosthetics and make-up department for The Penguin's remarkable look that still allowed for Farrell's dramatic performance and emotion to shine through. The finale ending twist was surprising and perhaps a bit of a bummer, but I guess it it was all consistent and in-line naman with Oz's character. The teases at the end were also quite interesting and makes you look forward to what will come next, whether in the form of a Season 2 or with The Batman 2.
