I'm going to have to wait for some reviews before I sit through this one.

The first one was a rollercoaster of mediocrity and stank.

I'm only four episodes in, but Typhoid Mary is legitimately scary.

I enjoyed season 1. Guy playing Danny isn’t the best, but I liked the story, and I hope the actor can get better at fighting for season 2.

Finished up this season this afternoon. This season was tremendously better than season 1 (which I thought was very average).

I'd put it a little ahead of DD season 2 in the next tier behind DD 1, Punisher, and JJ 1 for the Marvel shows, and it's better than DD season 2 by a bit due to being more consistent I think.

Alice Eve is great as Typhoid Mary, and Finn Jones was not a drag this season (and the end of the last episode might have shown a way to actually make him interesting for a season 3).

Coleen and Misti (with a shout out to Ward being awesome still too) are still the best part of the show, and I'd love to see a Daughters of the Dragon show.

I finished last night. Light years better than the 1st season. I really hope we get a season 3.

Sad sack Ward is the best Ward. Gotta love someone who's unapologetically an a-hole.

Agreed. Really like how they have things setup for a season 3. The Orson Randall stuff should make Danny's arc fairly interesting, particularly with sardonic a-hole Ward along for the ride. And the Colleen parts should be great.

I was most impressed with Alice Eve, but I think much of that was I thought she was a crap actress before this role. SHe did a great job floating between care free, amusing , and menacing as Mary.

I thought season 1 was really dumb. He leaves his post as guard of Kun Lun in the beginning for no real reason, and it got destroyed while he was away. Shocker. Am I supposed to feel bad for him?

Season 2 was really solid. Davos made a good villain and all the main characters are relatively interesting. Alice Eve stood out as Typhoid Mary and I’d be disappointed if she didn’t show up again in one of the Netflix Marvel shows.

I wouldn't be surprised if she makes her way to Hells Kitchen to visit a certain blind lawyer.

I also wouldn't be surprised if her THIRD personality (Bloody Mary) shows up soon.

Enjoyed most of the season except the end. I didn't think Danny made that big of deal about giving up the iron fist. Regardless of the events months later showing him using it again.

I've read an explanation of this. There's more than one Iron Fist and Orson Randall is alive in this version. The gunbelt is the dead giveaway.

As others have said, Alice Eve did a great job as Mary. I'm assuming that the Walker persona is actually Typhoid Mary, and the persona that saved her in Sakovia is Bloody Mary. That will be interesting to see if we get another Iron Fist, Daredevil (after this one), or Defenders season.

I like the idea of this MCU version of Wing getting the Iron Fist. If we get a season 3 of Iron Fist, I think we will see Danny get the secret scrolls about the history of the Iron Fist from Randall. Along the way, Randall will get back involved with some threat, sacrifice himself, and pass his remaining power on to Danny. Danny, through his training and studies, will finally be able to unleash the full power of the Iron Fist. That's my hope anyway.

Between season 3 of Iron Fist and Luke Cage, I hope it finally just sets up a Heroes for Hire/Daughters of the Dragon series. Could just work it as Heroes for Hire since Wing and Knight have been part of that. Have Wing and Knight chase down leads doing their detective/private investigator thing while Luke and Danny do their thing and meet up for the big showdowns in the series. It would be interesting with 2 Iron Fists, Luke Cage, and Misty with her Rand Tech arm. They could even have Danny do something similar to the comics and set up an a Rand HQ in Harlem to operate out of and double as a dojo for troubled youth for all four to help.

I wonder if they'll give her the gold arm from the comics now that it needs to be repaired. She did talk about "adding bling to it".

Very very solid season and it ended in a perfect place.

Danny going all Orson Randall, Colleen and Misty most likely doing Heroes for Hire.

Ward getting a super solid arc.
