Haven't seen Luke Cage yet, but going through Daredevil for the second time (this time with Mrs. FMB!). It's definitely worth watching, regardless of Luke Cage.

So I guess I'd say it's good but in the end my third favorite behind daredevil and jessica jones. Seemed to me like it was half shaft, half the wire, which sounds awesome in theory, but the execution just wasn't quite up to the level of the other two. Still good stuff, though. I'll go into more details later once more people have watched the whole season.

I thought everything about the show felt stiff early on. The first episode wasn't bad, exactly, but the whole thing felt a little off. Slow, like they were trying too hard. It settled down though. For the most part. Some bumps later on but never quite as bad as the first ep. Second ep set the tone, though...

I liked Cottonmouth better as a villain than Diamondback.

I could see that. Unfortunately both were mediocre when compared with Fisk, the Punisher, and the Purple Man.

The way they handled Cottonmouth was the weakest part of the season, although Diamondback's introduction and subsequent appearances were pretty bad, too.

I thought Harlem Hillary was the best villain of them all...

I didn't have a problem with her. I had a problem with the way they abruptly turned her. It needed to be set up and foreshadowed, not just a random act of violence after a throwaway sexual abuse reference.

Agreed, but the explosive turn was great. Just needed something more to set up the turn.
