    This is the kind of news story we should celebrate, honestly.

    Matt saw that the show wasn’t really coming together as planned and pulled the brakes before entering the point of no return.

    Good shit.

    And on top of that, it gave us The Penguin HBO show which is insanely good.

    I see this as an absolute win.

  2. I find it interesting that nowhere in the article mentions that Terence Winter was a writer on The Sopranos, the obvious overarching influence on this Penguin series.

    You’d think the journalist would at least ask him about that comparison.

    Would i have loved it? Yes, but I’m happy that he called the shot to cancel and not warner

    But if they were to make this, Gordon and Batman would have to show up. I guess it can work in the penguin (i still think da bat should show up) but not for this show
