that new Pennyworth series...

Has anyone watched it? Is it fun? A couple of mainstream media reviews I've seen were all positive, one I've seen on a comic book site mostly disgruntled, but I haven't come across any fandom buzz in my circles.

I haven't really followed any of the DC TV series, but this series setting seems different and like you could watch it without having seen Gotham or anything. I'm not watching much TV these days, but this looks interesting.

Dude just looked so generic to me.

True, but otoh I like ordinary people in superhero universes storylines and bodyguard tropes are something I like, and it looked like there might be some of that with Pennyworth being hired as security by Thomas Wayne. And for once a superhero-adjacent series seems to let the main character have no particularly traumatic backstory with murdered parents or such. And the setting of London in the 1960s could be fun and the series design overall in the trailer looked neat.
