Say what you like about The Penguin (namely, that it's a bit silly and hard-to-believe at times), but it's certainly got no problems with killing off it cast. Established actors, recognisable from other shows, and then BAM! - dead after only a few eps.

- Be civil. Disagreements happen. Don't attack others. Take a moment and reconsider before you post an inflammatory comment in all caps.
- No spam. Please don't post spam, trolling or other low effort content. If you're a human and you saw something interesting or had an interesting thought, you're probably fine.
- Memes are allowed. We're a small community, feel free to post memes or similar content. Funny things are good. If it becomes a problem we can discuss changing the rules.

- If you're making a post put "(Spoilers)" at the start of your post.
- If your post is an image mark it as NSFW.

When should something no longer be considered a spoiler? In general use your best judgement. If want something more specific,
- For films, wait until it's been released to streaming for at least a few weeks.
- For TV shows, consider the whole season as a spoiler until the last episode of the season has aired, then wait a few weeks.

That was exactly my thought when they stabbed Clancy Brown (Salvatore). Glad to see he was the survivor, but at the cost of killing off all the other known actors. (Also speaking of hard-to-believe, Nadia Maroni went up in flames quickly.)
Penguin Lair!
Seeing Oz so down on his luck, I'm glad to see him with a new home/base of operations.
Also Oz's mother is a great character (and actress). Loves her son, but also mean, but also encouraging, but also sick. We look at someone like Nadia Maroni, running the family while Sal is in jail. We see Sophia, taking over the family. And then we have Frances Cobb, a woman who could be their equals. She has that same drive, that same level of ruthlessness. Obviously she's sick, and couldn't actually do it, but it's there.
I hope she survives this series. I don't think she will, but it would be great to keep her around.
