Finished the entire season in two sittings, now I feel empty.

At episode 13 now, did I blink and miss something?
When was Brett attacked?
It wasn't shown on screen but presumably it happened a little before Nobu gets the info on the targets in the last episode.

Bit crappy =/
Just finished it and loved it. Even more than season 1, which I also enjoyed.
Punisher was great and I thought Foggy and Karen improved significantly. I also really don't understand the Elektra hate. I thought the actress was great and I liked this version of the character despite the changes to the comic version.
(not a real spoiler)
Personally, I loved how all these different factions were playing into the story. You could tell Matt was getting overwhelmed and pulled in all kinds of directions.
That is just crazy. Worst rated season of a Marvel TV Show? Beyond crazy.

I might also be biased because I found her insanely hot and could totally understand Matt getting sidetracked by her crazy.

This was straight up R-rated... That shotgun blast...
I'm trying to remember anything in Deadpool that matched the [entire series spoilers]
Punisher shotgun or pistolwhipping
I'm actually having a hard time remembering anything from Deadpool :\
that dude was from the comic. Now its gone bit weird as shit.
I'm super confused at Agents of Shield ratings. Like, what. That stuff is horrendous.
Supposedly it got better after they started doing Inhumans stuff.

this is the main weakness of MCU, and when the seeds or hints get bigger than the main story itself (like in Age of Ultron) then the whole thing turns to shit
I don't think its DD 2 case though, since most of it had resolution, although tottally half assed

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Elektra was better.
Yes
Yes to which
Probably. I think it was a nod to
Matt killing Bullseye after Bullseye kills Elektra.

Matt didn't kill Bullseye after Elektra's death. He let him fall and paralyzed him.
Both. Mainly the former but also a bit of the latter.
At least, that is my reading of it.
They tried to channel the subtlety of the Man of Steel ending yet, unlike that film, came short of achieving perfection.
lol

Yeah sorry.
"Attempting to kill." Nobu did not die either, Stick was the one to off him.
Yeah,
I was curious if Daredevil was aware that he'd come back to life so didn't go easy on him or was actively trying to kill him just for Elektra.
I've never seen the 2005 Elektra movie but
it sounds like her plot is headed in that direction.

Wow im really disappointed this season, did they change the writers team or something? Seems like the plots are really messy and not as strong as last season, also the dialogue seems much weirder... I dont know, I might have to watch season 1 again to compare it but it feels kinda "off"

Just finished episode 8. Holy shit at that ending. The first four episodes were the strongest the show's been thus far and though it hasn't been quite that good since, I'm still really enjoying it. It hasn't been the drop in quality some have been saying. Both Bernthal and Yung have been excellent.

Just got done. Great series. Some salty people in here. I enjoyed everything about it.
Leagues better than Arrow for example. Way better than AoS and Agent Carter. I'd say it's about the same level as JJ, Just below DD series 1. Totally different but about as enjoyable as Flash currently is but lacking the "Must watch next week " factor which is fine since I can binge.

Foggy is one of the immortals of the Marvel Universe. Don't count on it.

Why isn't Gotham in your list? I admit the first season sucked up until the last four or five episodes, but season 2 has been on fire.

I haven't seen agents of shield but that ranking is pretty on point except I'd swap daredevil season 1 and 2 and put Gotham season 2 at the top of the list.
I'm seven episodes into this and I like Foggy a lot more in this season than last season.
Episode seven-related question:
Episode seven-related question:
So Castle said he isn't having combat flashbacks so he doesn't want to argue that he has PTSD from his military service, which Karen agrees with. But then they go at the angle that his whole life changed when his family was brutally murdered and he thinks about it all the time ... would that not qualify as PTSD? PTSD isn't exclusively caused by war.
Halfway in. Feels like they should've made Karen a reporter or something given how much time she spent with Ben and now with going back there. Her knack for pushy nosiness would make for a good one, and make "lawyer's assistant uncovers various dirty deeds" a little less ridiculous. And it would be a good way to not have to anchor her to Foggy and Matt all the time.

Put Flash S1 above DDS2 and put Arrow S2 above AoS S2 and that sounds like my list.
This show is garbage.

Hell...no.
Matt and Karen's date...I actually felt Matt cared about Karen. Elektra felt forced.
I enjoyed it a lot more than season 1, but after episode 4 there are only a few episodes that live up to the those. And they did a poor job with...
The HAND
Fight Choreography
Both of those areas needed a lot more work.
Call me crazy, but I also think the STICK actor didn't pull off combat well at all. I really didn't believe he was a competant fighter at all, and he needed to be a good fighter.
They really needed to cast someone in their late 50s who could fight at least a little bit. Then add 15 years to him with makeup.

RT scores correlate better with inoffensiveness than quality. Nobody hated it enough to give it a bad review, so it gets a high RT%.

Just finished it, while a better season then the first, it's still a pretty messy affair. First four episodes are pretty on point, and then the rest of the episodes introduce way more and then try to scramble to resolve all the plot points.
It's not, it's just not "great".

Watched all of Season One of Daredevil back when it first aired and enjoyed it.
Just started Season Two tonight.
What Marvel should I move onto after that? I've only seen one episode of Agent Carter and 2 or 3 episodes of Shield.

Nah, Matt is an advocate of good tipping, makes him a swell guy by any decent human beings standards.
Diner scene was pretty good all around.
