I love starting my day off with some good news!

Yeeessssssss!!!! The best part of Season 2 DareDevil imo

Agreed 100%. The Hand part was nowhere near as entertaining as The Punisher.

 

[Zombine]

Please cast Ma Gnucci!

 

[inky]

This is now my most anticipated Netflix show.

 

[cereal_killerxx]

This is now my most anticipated Netflix show.

This is my second most anticipated Netflix show, with the Defenders being first.

Is NotTheGuyYouKill ok?

NotTheGuyYouKill, post if you are ok.

lmao

 

[Funky Papa]

Oh right I forgot to add this,

"fuck proportions and whoever invented them"

I can't breathe I'm so happy

 

[TheStruggler]

its about damn time, John played the punisher perfectly. What an outstanding choice for cast.

 

[duckroll]

Can't use quote tags either apparently!

 

[iPaul93]

YIIIIIISSSSS!

 

[univariate]

Fucking awesome

 

[Houndi101]

Terry Crews for Barracuda right guys?

 

[Scotia]

FUCK YES!!!

 

[BrokenFiction]

Terry Crews for Barracuda right guys?

Why would you say this out loud? Now I'm going to be disappointed if it doesn't happen!

 

[Andrew J.]

Good news, though possibly the least surprising thing that has ever happened.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Can't use quote tags either apparently!

My body has gone numb from joy

 

[j-wood]

Thank God. He was the best part of DD season 2. Perfect actor for the role. I can't wait for this.

 

[Sad Affleck]

I cannot stand this opinion that these shows need to be shorter. Thank goodness you clowns aren't in charge.

13 episodes, bring it.

This guy knows what's up.

 

[UnObtainium17]

Im gonna be all over this like

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

YESSSS

 

[NightShift]

I'm pumping my fists right now I'm so happy. Fuck all the other shows, in fact fuck the entire rest of the MCU, they all have nothing on Bernthal's Frank Castle.

I agree.

 

[Future Foundation]

Source (EW)

Awesome.

Also, good for Steve Lightfoot. This is his first showrunning job, correct?

 

[torre_avenue]

I hope the Punisher series takes place in LA, somewhere far away from the vigilantes of Hell's Kitchen.

 

[-griffy-]

I'm digging the hell out of that showrunner.

 

[unpopularblargh]

ideally this would adapt a few max arcs to pad out that 13 episodes. because none of these shows have been able to really make use of the time and this would be the best way to do so finally.

or better yet just cut the episode order down.

All three seasons they've made so far (both for Daredevil and the one for JJ) have the same pacing issues where they start off really strong and sluggishly crawl to the end. I wish the seasons were shorter or at least they put in more enjoyable standalone episodes so it doesn't feel like they're stretching out the main story.

 

[shink]

He was honestly the best thing about S2, when his arc finished it just wasn't the same after that.

 

[RustyNails]

Shane is head and shoulders above everyone when it comes to screen presence and acting except Fisk. This show is going to be great.

I hope they show what happened to his unit in Afghanistan where he takes on terrorist army by himself.

 

[wildfire]

*fist bumps*

 

[Tom Nook]

Charlie Sheen: Winning!

 

[Parch]

That had to be the most obvious spin-off possibility we've seen in a long time. It was just a matter of Netflix doing the obvious and making it happen.

 

[ryseing]

The ninjas are coming to ruin your day. Literally.

The conservation of ninjitsu has never applied more accurately to anything than the latter half of DD S2.

 

[Kevinroc]

I honestly can't believe it took them this long to announce this. Punisher was so good in DD season 2.

 

[fallengorn]

Awesome. They've got a good Frank Castle. Hope they get a good writer's room for it.

 

[thenexus6]

God is real..

 

[backflip10019]

Shit I still need to watch Daredevil S2. BAH so much to do, so little time.

 

[S.Holmes]

 

[SneakySneaks]

Yay! Let's hope this goes full Raid, hell it would be awesome if Evans got to direct an episode or two.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

He was honestly the best thing about S2, when his arc finished it just wasn't the same after that.

So true. I wasn't excited about the idea of a Punisher series on Netflix before, but I definitely am now. Daredevil S2 won me over with their portrayal of Frank. They would be crazy not to build off that. Punisher was the breakout of the series.

Marvel Netflix Universe > Marvel Cinematic Universe

I am happy about this. Keep 'em coming Marvel.


You know what I really fucking want, though? I want a Marvel Netflix show based on Fraction's Hawkeye run.

 

[Sephzilla]

Yes, the single best thing of the season IMO

Foggy was one of my least favorite parts of season 2

 

[The Giant]

Very good news.

I hope Blade will be the next series.

 

[NandoGip]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Perfect.

Hawk guy?

 

[kris.]

it had to happen. bernthal is too perfect as frank to not get his own series.

 

[TheCowboyPoet]

Nice. I'm in.

Marvel Netflix Universe > Marvel Cinematic Universe

They're the same universe.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Foggy was one of my least favorite parts of season 2

You say that like it's a unique opinion.

 

[Exploratory]

IN.

 

[rexor0717]

Awesome, he was the good part of the pretty so-so 2nd season of Daredevil. I really wanted a Punisher/Fisk in prison series lol.
