@@SolidariusLive fun fact. In original Batman animated series Bullock was supposed to be crooked cop but after sending Gordon to hospital the writers decided to change that, said he felt bad and became Gordon’s friend and a foil to Batman. Both Harvey and Batman break the rules of the game, but in different ways. While Batman is a vigilantee outside jurisdiction, Bullock was too harsh and often played a bad/mean cop. The main reason why Bullock didn’t like Batman in the animated series was supposed to be that he was jealous of how much freedom of action Batman has while Gordon keeps him on a leash, although Gordon was still allowing Harvey much more leeway than anyone else Becuase he knew that while Harvey may be as likable as oil stain on a new rug, he gets result and would never turn dirty. Examples of Harvey bending/breaking rules to do his job included breaking into buildings, looking into reporter files, outright stealing stuff. Bullock was only dirty if you talk about his hygiene, even Alfred said he is „a detective that looks like unmade bed” But if A Bullet for Bullock proved to us anything, it is that Harvey is a terrible guy with a good heart.

This show has its own style and is doing its own thing and I can respect that. I like it for what it is. We've seen Batman the Brave and the Bold and that didn't have outstanding animation either but it did some very unique things with Batman. Great animation costs a lot of money and takes a lot of time. Part of why so many animated tv shows were cancelled in the 90s was that it cost more money to animate these shows than the networks were willing to pay and so they'd decide to show sports instead, for instance.

To the people hatung on Fat Alfred when Alfred was first introduced in the 1940s he was a Fat private detecive and i dont think he was British, and he actually discovered that Bruce Wayne was Batman so Wayne hired him to keep the secret., a female version of Penguin was ok not that big a change for that character, Now the one change they goofed on was making Gordon a black man , in all honesty i dont think the 1940 society would except a high ranking black officer, remember what a hard time the,,blacks had in WW2 think it was Muskagee Airman or something like that. ,, Bullock always been a crook look at M.Keatons Batman Now for Batmans 1940 fighting style at that time he would not been able to travel to other countries to train in multiple martial arts so like the Batman of Earth 2 he could only train in Boxing , wrestling, Zorro style fencing, and possibly French Savate. He learned stealth from studing the methods used by burglars, and theatherical makeup techniques from University drama school. His Batmobile needs to be alittle less high tech and not sure he would have thought to make a submarine., also if your only going to fight crime in Gotham city dont see the need for a Batplane .

Everything else about the show I like, just the female Penguin wasn't executed the best....It's not just the fact that it's a gender swap, she's almost taller then Batman and doesn't talk and act like the Penguin character.....I hope that changes as the series continues or they make a brother Penguin character who's voiced by Tom Kenny ❤

It's definitely not Kevin. But then, Kevin wasn't Kevin straight out of the gate. It's interesting to see how forced he sounded in the earliest episodes. At least, compared to how utterly natural and effortless his delivery became. We'll see how this guy works out.

This reminds me so much of the animated series. I'm talking back the time when they had to have black paper to animate it so that they could save money on ink. You can see it in some of the fight choreography that they drew from the animated series possibly even as a tribute. I honestly believe that there's a lot of thought given to Kevin Conroy when they were animating this particular bit. I am okay with what I see so far

it should be remembered that in the 90s cartoon there was a lot of micromanagement surrounding Penguin due to the recent movie and it made those on the show resent the characters. Going this route feels like them doing it out of spite and I can appreciate spite, even if I feel they accidentally struck gold with a nasty but sympathetic villain who doesn’t fit in anywhere
