I kind of disagree. it was a good show, but absolutely felt like it could have been anything other crime drama. I didn’t feel like there was any real point in making it about penguin.
I’d argue it was a great way to show the immediate effects of “The Batman”. What the trauma of the flooding did to the common people of Crown Point and the power vacuum created by the death of Carmine Falcone. It also setup Penguin’s rise to power which means he will likely play a significant role in the Batman Crime Saga’s future.
From a storytelling point of view, I can absolutely appreciate how the show organically grew the plot and setup Penguin’s roots into Gotham’s underworld.
