re: Daredevil: Official Discussion Thread (Season 1; spoilers included)

I'm not upset, but I feel it's a tad short-sighted. Ben is a great character to use as an exposition delivery machine. He's a reporter, so he would know things, and he's a vehicle by which the writers could tell the audience things we need to know. And given that he works at the Bugle, or whatever they called his paper, he could have popped up in the other series. He would have made a decent connective tissue.

But I'm not that emotionally attached to him.
