Who's watching? Who's interested? Did anyone watch Daredevil on Netflix? Did anyone watch any Marvel stuff on Netflix?
Enjoying this a lot so far. Always enjoyed the more grounded Netflix Marvel shows. So far, been half courtroom drama, half political intrigue, and I'm quite invested so far.
Absolutely loving it, I've always been a hug fan of this iteration of Daredevil and I think Charlie Cox is phenomenal in the role. I do slightly wish, now more than ever, that it kept a healthy arms-length distance from the main MCU films and projects, because it does make some of the courtroom drama in the first few episodes of the show questionable considering Civil War and the Sokovia Accords, but it's still an extremely enjoyable show and nails the procedural drama down in such a juicy way.
The last episode left on a great point and it's the show I'm most excited for every week now (now that Severance has finished off Season 2).
I feel really invested in the Defenders + Punisher, so I'm looking forward to seeing if any of the others appear anytime soon. I expect...

Honestly, season 1 of Jessica Jones is probably my favourite, mainly for the David Tennant Kilgrave factor, but it has enamoured me to Jessica Jones and Krysten Ritter as a result. Would love to see her come back at some point down the line.
Have you rewatched JJ S1 at all? I did a rewatch recently and I was a little surprised at how much I actually looked back on that show with nostalgia goggles.
I rewatched about a year ago. I still enjoyed it, but Tennant very much hard carries. Season 2 was a little bit dull without him, and I didn't even bother with Season 3.

I do have this worry. Really loved Jessica Jones when I first watched it but like Bread said S2 wasn’t as good and I didn’t end up watching S3. Would suck to go back for the rewatch excitedly only to realise it wasn’t that great to begin with.
Yeah to echo Bread on S1 thoughts on my rewatch about a month or two ago, David Tennant and Kilgrave's character carries that show lol. There's intriguing side plots and good supporting cast, particularly with Malcolm IMO - but again his story is so dependent on Kilgrave that it's hard to measure how well done that part is done as opposed to how well Kilgrave is done.
Also love Krysten Ritter to the ends of the Earth but some of her lines in JJ have some hilarious cheese/cliche to them.
New ep of Born Again tonight tho I cannot wait to get back home from work.
As bottleneck episodes of TV shows go, was a big fan of Episode 5. Very enjoyable, short film-esque energy.
Is this actually taking place in the Netflix DD canon? I never got around to S3 but would like to be excited about something superhero again lol

Yeah agreed, think it was a near perfect way to do a Superhero TV show's bottleneck episode. Even deeply enjoyed the 'cameo', it's the kind of small casual interconnectivity like that I enjoy.

Yeah it is meant to be, it tries as hard as possible to pick up where S3 left off with a couple of changes and alterations. It's a bit messy because (Hawkeye and Echo Spoilers)
