Ah okay. Thanks for that.

I forgot one:

1. The main characters drink _a lot_ on this show. I can’t believe Murdock can go heroing all night, lawyering all day, and liquoring every moment in between.

Matt doesn’t drink that much. It’s something Foggy keeps complaining about, that Matt _doesn’t_ join him and Karen at Josie’s every night.

It seems like he spends a lot of screen time drinking.

_Jessica Jones_’s first season came out in between seasons one and two of _Daredevil_. Foggy getting hired by Hogarth is something that happened after Jessica killed Kilgrave.

Finished the Season 2. Loving this show.

Only thing that really bugged me. I forget the exact episode but the Hand knock out the lights to kidnap the children.

How in the hell is this supposed to be any sort of inconvenience for Daredevil? I honestly expected the lights to come up show the broken bodies of ninjas everywhere.

I really, really want to see Gladiator. He was one of my favorites as a kid. Don’t judge me! I loved those blades on his wrist.

Also, we got Elektra and Punisher. How long before Bullseye shows up? And since Matt is the Marvel Universe’s prime horn-dog can they throw us a Black Widow cameo?  
Really looking forward to the rest of the shows. Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Defenders and I heard a Punisher rumor as well.

I think the show cratered pretty hard in the last few episodes of the season, and that scene contributed quite a bit.

There were definitely some cracks, but I’m loving all of the various series enough that I’ll excuse a few clunkers. As long as they don’t become the norm.

They’re ninjas, they like to fight in the dark, and cutting the power to the place you’re about to break into is pretty standard stuff. I don’t think it had anything to do with disadvantaging DD. In fact, it makes the ninjas a bit more menacing that DD doesn’t have a darkness advantage over them.

I also like Gladiator and hope they do something fun with him. Punisher too, and I guess he’s getting his own show?

When’s the next season start? I miss it.

Don’t agree at all.

Daredevil will next appear in the Defenders miniseries in fall of 2017. Season 3 won’t be till 2018.

😃 Nice try, but that doesn’t fly with DD. He’s in total darkness all the time, he wouldn’t even know they cut the power. Even ninjas fight better when they can see.
