anyway pennyworth text posting be upon ye
I’m on the second season of pennyworth and it’s actually crazy that no one else watched this. It’s so batshit insane I thought it would be a shoe in for tumblr. Alfred is like a shittier (or maybe better??) version of James Bond because, really, he’s just in it for the money and his bros. He goes on morning runs with JACK THE RIPPER. He visits A LITERAL WITCH to figure out vital information. Alfred gets clocked in the nose by Thomas Wayne’s sister who ends up dating a satanist. While all of this is happening, London is in the throes of an impending civil war because fascists are trying to take over. THAT’S JUST A SMALL PART OF SEASON 1.
Peak TV. So fucking funny holy shit.
YOU GET IT, ITS PEAK DC. just wait for s3 it gets wackier. like I'm constantly wondering what their plan was to do w samantha.
(on my rewatch I was like "oh s1 was so normal" [jack the rapper's decendent is here and runs a mob and alfred chats w a witch on a regular basis])
like alfred is so fucking mean to EVERYONE no wonder everyone hates him in s2. I love love the little homages to batman villians (also alfred paralleling a batman villian every season is so great)
it's such a unique and fun show that took RISKS and did fun things with the plot.
my only dislike of it is that they didn't make alfred and thomas kiss. they should have kissed.
it's such a tumblr blorbo show and how tumblr didn't like it is beyond me. it makes NO SENSE and that's what makes it so much fun, it truly captures the essence of dc comics.
on the 2nd to last ep of pennyworth s3 and GOD. this show melded together all the plotlines really well and you get to see everyone come back together and go "what's happening with you? where are we going now?"
seeing thomas, martha, and alfred really come together as a group in a way they've never truly meshed before is so satisfying to witness along with seeing these original characters you fell in love with have good and impactful storylines as well.
i love seeing bet's revenge quest, i love seeing lucius parent and befriend all the p-dubs, I love seeing thomas, martha, and alfred all have moments of pure "I will do whatever it takes to defend my family"
all three of them killing to save their family so bruce grows up in a world where he gets to choose to not kill at all
ITS SO GOOD
