Pennyworth

Never written a review before but after just 2 episodes of this new series I'm hooked, it reminds me very much of the older tv series like The Avengers and many more from that era, brilliant visuals, brilliant characters, the 21st century made to look like the 19th and 20th, Alfreds character channeling Michael Caine, little details that upto now are just wow, it's weird in lots of ways but in a great way, if you love Batman then you need to watch this..

Excellent It is packed with Drama, Espionage, Romance, Action and Comedy. I always admire this kind of work and it's just Brilliant. Excellent Cast. Everyone is giving their best work. Must Watch Series.

With a darkish but not gothic London in the 60's backdrop this story had me hooked almost from the beginning. The DC tv shows just keep getting better.

Pennyworth is a pretty cool little show that's absolutely worth watching. I wasn't really sure what to expect since it's based off Alfred Pennyworth (Batman's Butler) who's a former British SAS officer who forms a security company in 1969's London. It also takes place in a London war that never happened. It may take a few episodes to really get into it but if you can stick with through those first few episodes you'll find yourself really enjoying the show. I know some people didn't like it be it was too violent and had too much swearing but this is a show for adults. The cast is made of up of mostly unknown actors but they all do such a great job that you'll become attached to their characters before you know it. I was a fan of both seasons and can't wait for more! It's now moving to HBO Max for further seasons.

I just wanted some background TV while my attention was diverted amongst other activities. Didn't take long to stop what I was doing and get right into this. Recent DC shows have been pure garbage, whilst this is closer to Gotham in its Elseworld-ish quirky grimness. But less quirky, even with inclusions of Jack Ripper, Aleister Crowley and the Queen. Excellent production all-round, stand-out performance from Paloma Faith playing a woman who's a wee bit mad. If I was aware they'd do the left vs right political dynamic throughout season 1 I wouldn't have watched it, but surprisingly it was done well. The only problem is I now have high exceptions of season 2.
