It's criminal how underutilized she was on the show. She was great with the limited screen time she got.

Whoever cast her on this show knew that there was more to her.
I thought she was great in season 2 of Fargo but this role has a lot more depth and has really allowed her to show off her acting skills.

Im only halfway through episode 3, but man is this show awesome. I love how they make Penguin's ascension realistic.

He's not the toughest villian with crazy powers and strength. His charisma + street smarrs+ drive + sociopath tendencies are guiding him to the top. The man gets put into some of the most tense situations, and thinks his way out of it in a blinks eye. 99.9% of other men would be dead right now because they'd slip up, but he never loses his witts. Cool stuff.

Nice cliffhanger. It'll be a long week to see what happens. I kind of envy viewers that'll binge the series and be able to watch Episode 7 immediately.

I'm so proud of Vic. He's developing into a fine, young, murderer and gangster right before our very eyes. 🥲

The show just gets better and better. Im wondering if we'll see Batman at some point. It'd be pretty cool to see him in a role where he's not the focal point. Like he just comes in and wreaks havoc for a scene, and then we dont see him again.

It might be just me but I thought Oz looked more pale in episode 6. Based on being underground and in hiding for a while. Anyone else notice it ?

That’s a good pick up. I really didn’t notice it at first, but a quick rewatch of the first 10 minutes, I’d say he looks pale for sure.

Perhaps it's the start of a gradual transformation toward the character's more recognizable persona. He could get paler and fatter in the final episodes, lose everyone that he cares about and hate himself and the world even more, setting him up as a grotesque, unstable supervillain force for Batman to contend with in the next movie.
