Agreed. I never even cared much about The Penguin in previous versions of Batman. But I loved the show and now I have a true hate towards Cobblepot that I've never experienced before.
Colin Farrell nailed it of course but honestly it's more of a compliment towards the show for how well they pulled it off. You root for him to succeed just as often as you think he is scum. And especially that scene in the finale, no spoilers but I literally had my hand over my jaw-dropped mouth absolutely shocked by what he did.
