The Penguin is in Gotham City and up to no good. He’s selling booby-trapped umbrellas to unsuspecting customers. It’s up to Batman and Robin to stop his dastardly plan!
This one felt more like a noir-styled mystery and less like the campy show we normally expect. There’s still some of the dry humor though, especially coming from the chain-smoking Penguin, who is great in this episode as a characterture of the original character.
I do like this show and I’m not sure if there’s anything to complain about for this slightly different episode. I wish’d there was more action but lacking it fit with the rest of the Detective-styled show.

+8: Good but nothing spectacular or anything
