I have started JJ season 2, and so far the first episode was solid. I am reading mixed reviews of it, and my excitement is minimal.

Am I the only one who thinks they are turning out more bad than good? Outside of both DD and JJ s1, there has been plenty of ok to meh. Nothing bad, but the intensity of those have been missing.

Then came The Punisher. Holy hell this was incredible! This is equal to both DDs and up there on my list of all time favorite shows.

Now there's JJs2, and I'm losing hope again.

Anyway, to the ranking.



My list:

Daredevil 2
Daredevil 1
Punisher
Jessica Jones 1

Iron Fist (this is when things drop off big time)
Defenders

Luke Cage (I did not like this one at all. Needed more blackploitation, more consistently badass Luke and a solid villian for the entire season.)

Jessica Jones 2 (TBD... but I am curious how others rank it)


What you got? I have a feeling Iron Fist will be last on most lists, but I actually enjoyed it despite its numerous flaws

Daredevil and Punisher are the only good ones. First half of Luke Cage was alright.

Surprised to see Iron Fist not last or even relatively high on these lists. I thought it was more widely hated than this. I really enjoyed it, and I think Ward is a major reason for this. One of the best characters in all of the MCU Marvel series. Without him this show would’ve been much less enjoyable

The Defenders

With the exception of Punisher, every single one has been dependent on a good villain to carry each season. These heroes are just not that likable. DareDevil has awesome fight scenes but I find Matt Murdoch annoying. Luke Cage is a boring tank. The casting for Iron Fist...Ugh. I actually like Jessica Jones the character, but she's no hero, she's a Private Investigator.

I think you'll find that the best scenes and best story arcs happen when these characters are on the show.

Killgrave
Wilson Fisk
Frank Castle
DD (only when he's fighting)
Cotton Mouth
Madam Gao
Ward

I don't know why the heroes suck so much, but they do.

It’s because Iron First has the most fleshed out world and a fantastic classic story. The actors SUUUCCKS though. Had they nailed the casting Iron Fist would have easily been the GOAT.

Right now, Punisher is knocking it out of the park.

I would add that last on this list is still better than a good majority of television anyways.

Punisher (couldn't make myself finish it)
No incentive to watch the rest of them after watching these three.

I would honestly love to see a crossover with SHIELD and Netflix MCU. Their talents would be very useful to them in a crisis that gets a little to extreme for either of them alone.

The Netflix characters would be in for quite a shock. SHIELD is using a new secret headquarters called the lighthouse and it's hidden under lake ontario by Toronto.

Because they're not trying to fool anyone about the show. There's no holding back. It's the Punisher. He kills people brutally. So the show was about him killing bad guys brutally.

Im not too far into Netflix MCU. Ive seen all of Luke Cage, Defenders, and about half of Jessica Jones.

I enjoyed JJ and Luke Cage. Not great, but decent shows.

I found Defenders to be pretty boring and almost unwatchable. I wondered if thats because I never watched Iron Fist or Daredevil. But apparently I wasnt the only one who didnt like it.

Nope. Watch them all and it’s still a boring mess. It was the worst written of all the series. The ending was good although a bit cliche
