Don't understand the formula for these Marvel TV shows, single series get 13 episodes while the team up show got only 8 episode.
The Defenders wasn't that good, I like these shows mainly cus they are dark and actionpacked but they drag on a lot, Iron Fist was terrible.
I think Daredevil season 3 can be good, Kingpin is gonna come back and they are bringing in some actionguy from arrow.
Maybe Iron Fist season 2 has some hope cus they are actually training the actor in martial arts now. And they have a different showrunner.

I liked it a lot, didn't feel like it was dragging. Loved the violence and i'm glad they didn't hold back. last 2 eps were brutal. My only complaint is the Lewis subplot, but it's a minor thing. Huge props to the actor though, really nailed the mentally disturbed vet.

Haven't seen it yet. Is it better than the movies?
I haven't seen all of the movies, it's not just about him being the punisher there are lots of other characters as well and not to get spoilery but it deals with post traumatic stress and stuff so it's not just action. But I think they got the character right as far as I can tell.

I like it so far. It may be slow on some parts but that’s because they are building Frank Castle’s cuaracter along with others within his small circle. Only on ep. 6 so still going through it but I’m liking it. Home boy nailed his character.

It wasn't that good because it was short and felt a bit rushed....to me at least.

Why didn't you like Defenders?
The entire series was one big "yo, this guy knows magic? thats craaaazy" reaction. Like it was ashamed of it's own source material and never got past it. They kept doing that disbelief nonsense up until the end, so it feels like the actual gang dynamic never got started.

All 4 of them added nothing interesting or of variety in the action scenes. Elektra's motivations are vague and contradictory and Sigourney Weaver is wasted to repeating a couple of cliches. The interactions were like cookie-cutter Avengers and the final episode was a big joke.
