Done with season 1... the finale was good but a little lackluster really, but overall, the entire season was a really good watch.

I'm two episodes in and I'm done for the day. I refuse to binge something like this. I'm gonna savor it.

I really really like it. It's cool seeing a Marvel series that is so different from the rest of Marvel's cinematic universe, well put together cast, good writing and overall a good show so far.

That fight scene in episode 2 was a nice shout out to Old boy as well.

you seen the fight scene that inspired it?

From what I have seen so far that Daredevil goes out of its way to make Murdock look like a good fighter, unlike say Batman. I don't think any of the live action Batman media has gotten the master martial artist thing down right

They did a great job paying homage for sure.. Not only did they make sure his fighting skills are highlighted, but they also make sure we know he's human as he gets his ass kicked numerous times.

I'm actually regretting binge watching this, but I have 5 other shows ongoing every week so I had to watch it while I could... But I should have savored it as you spoke of.

It's run a lap around Arrow pretty easily, Agents as well. No use comparing it to Flash because it is like Apples and Oranges.

Obviously they also have the freedom of going darker and grittier with Daredevil since it is on Netflix and doesn't need to worry about advertisers or such like Arrow for example.

I just hope they don't go gritty for grittiness sake.

I agree with Agents, but quite the opposite for Arrow.. IMO Arrow runs laps around Daredevil in numerous aspects; storywise, actionwise, character casting and cinematography mainly.

Arrow, Daredevil, Flash, Agents of Shield, Gotham is my order of the big 5 right now.

Daredevil has been fantastic and looking to finish it up this weekend. I also think I heard they are bringing a second season!
