You mean the TV crime drama that was consistently and regularly nominated for awards as best new TV series, best drama, best actor, best actress, best episode and outstanding director? 😕

^See, even you don't know the name of it. 😛

This show hasn't been confirmed for a third season yet, and the actor that plays Matt says he has no idea when there will be a new season. I wonder if they will start up again after they complete shooting for Defenders

Well, to be fair, they have a huge amount still on their plate, so they have to try and find time for it all. Luke Cage, Jessica Jones s2, Iron Fist and Defenders. DD already has 2 seasons under his belt, so they are likely to give him a breather to focus on the others.

LOL. I am no fan of Law & Order either, but I caught an episode of Criminal Intent one night and I was hooked. Ended up buying the DVDs just to watch Vincent D'Onofrio. Read later that he left the show because he was completely burned out - he put so much effort into his work that his health started suffering. I've been a fan of his ever since.

Just finished Season 1. For me personally some of the episodes in the beginning/middle of the season were the best. There were a couple goofy parts toward the end of the season (probably Ep. 11/12), like the guy Matt Murdock got to make his suit. Felt like their fight was a bit overdone... should have been more understated. There were one or two other things that seemed a little rushed...

But still an amazing season. Great story, great character arcs. So psyched about Season 2.

I can't wait to see Fisk's origin episode. While at dinner with Vanessa, Fisk mentioned that his cuff links were his dad's and wears them every day. In PunisherMAX, a young Fisk

Spoiler:
drugs his abusive, alcoholic dad with a paralyzing agent, stuffs cheese into his dad's mouth, and then lets 5 starving rats eat the cheese from his mouth while suffocating him and eating the inside of his mouth.

Brutal shit.

It was a little toned down for the show. But I think they had to, so the character would make more sense.

And this is just the origin of Kingpin. Think how freakin badass he'll be once he goes full villain.

Omg... hell yes.

Good show so far. Just don't like the shaky camera style.

Yeah, that's my biggest complaint, too. They usually do it during dialogue scenes! What in the absolute fu#k! [begin rant] It serves no purpose but to distract the viewer during a dialogue scene. It does NOT add any tension or interest. It's just stupid. Everything else is filmed so beautifully. [end rant]

I finally finished the show. Most I liked, some I hated. I'll start off with the worst, which I'm surprised none of you have brought up.

Spoiler:
Killing Ben Urich was a BIG mistake. You guys are complaining about losing Weasley, which sucked, but Ben's death was the worst. He is a very integral part of the Marvel U. I thought him getting fired would just be the next step to him working for the Daily Bugle with Spidey in his movie, but then they just brutally killed him off. It didn't even really serve the story either. Events would have played out the same either way with the crooked detective. His wifes entire 'feeling' that his best stories were yet to come was just a stupid little misleading comment. I can practically hear the writers loling right now at peoples reactions.

I usually like characters getting killed off, but not pointlessly. It needs to drive the story forward in some way. Urich is such a big part of so many Marvel stories that killing him off in the first season of Daredevil was the writers shooting themselves in the foot.

Wow, interesting. Yeah, I didn't like seeing him go, and now that you mention all that, damn, that sucks. He was a great character. Why does the black guy always have to die??

The Sin Eater rumored to be one of the Villains in season 3

I'd rather see Bullseye over him.

Apparently he's also a pretty big Ghost Rider villain (though I've never read these so I don't know how big), so at least he offers the chance for a few good cross overs. I doubt we'll get Spidey in DDs show, as cool as that would be, but Ghost Rider is very possible.

Filming has finally started in season 3. Kingpin is already confirmed to return.

Also, Cox himself has said that the third season will adapt elements from Daredevils "Born Again" arc. For those not familiar in with the story, it's the arc that outs Murdock as DD to Kingpin, and Kingpin wrecks his life.

Omg, yeah. That's why I'm excited to see this.

Yep, and if it follows Born Again it really should be his season. Things are gonna get pretty intense between him and DD

DDBA is probably one of my all-time favorite comic book runs so I hope they do a good job adapting it. It might be tough, seeing as how Daredevil is legitimately broken by Kingpin in that run (majority of the TV audience might view it as far too dark). It makes what happens to Batman in the TDKR film look like a baby shower.

I hope it's good. It would keep up a consistent tone of grittiness that I think DD's series has captured quite well so far, which is why DD is still my favorite of the TV adaptations.

They'd need to make a few tweaks to the story, due to differences between the comics and the show, with characters like Karen, for example, but it is definitely doable. Because she knows Matt's identity, we know Fisk was looking into Murdock after their encounter in prison in S2, we know Fisk is coming back, we know Nuke exists in the MCU, and ending of The Defenders established the connection to Matt's mother. So, they definitely have the groundwork laid for it.

Bullseye has been cast

https://screenrant.com/daredevil-season-3-bullseye-wilson-bethel/

Nice.

Fuck, it seems like Season 3 should be coming out already..

They really aren't subtle with this now.

But it's good. It implies a major role for Bullseye in the show, if they are even incorporating his symbol into the friggin costume department uniforms.
