    It wasn’t until watching this review that I realised they had changed Oswald’s name to Cobb. I heard them say Cobb in the show, but thought it was just people being casual—using a shortening of the name as a nickname.

      He’s called Oswald Cobb, or Oz for short. I think we’re going to get a slightly hammy “by the way, my name is Cobblepot!” Line at the end.

        Yeah, I know. I noticed them call him Cobb in the show, but I figured it was a nickname the same way Oz is a nickname for Oswald. This review made me realise that they’ve actually officially renamed him, and after hearing that I looked it up and saw they did it apparently because they think Cobblepot is too silly of a name. Which seems absurd to me, because it’s not like “Oz Cobb” sounds any more believable than Oswald Cobblepot or even Oz Cobblepot.

        But yeah, because of that I doubt we’ll be getting that line.
