1st Marvel Netflix series without a Rosario Dawson cameo.

Not there yet.

I will admit that when one character seemed to become a right wing stereotype I was pissed. Then they came in with the same stereotype for the opposite side. It wasn't about pushing a message but pointing out the bad on both.

I keep being impressed by the Marvel/Netflix combo and I'm sad it's going to end...

Seems so odd that a series like this will be on a Disney streaming network.

It won't be.

Netflix retains all rights to their existing and current shows under the Marvel banner.

I just got through ep 5. This shit is ****ing HEAVY.

You almost have to be in a mood to watch it.

It doesn’t pull many punches in the development of the story.

Spoiler!


Production and execution of this thing is remarkable. There isn’t a single point in which I’m taken out of it. Initially the Homeland people did but they’re on point. Shot is ****ing good.

The point wasn't to get you to agree with the Punisher - it was always to get you to see how wrong things are.

The whole point is that a Punisher could exist. It could happen.

Why?...

Through Episode 5.

This show is amazing. Loving it.

It's a really well done show. My biggest challenge with it though (besides all the grunting) is The Punisher's resemblance to our goofy local sports guy on WGN morning news, Pat Tomasulo. He's the anti-Punisher. They recently did a feature on him overcoming his childhood fears by going back to Disney and riding on the ride he pooped his pants on as a kid. It put a dent in my enjoyability of the show.

I will say, Frank Castle has Wolverine-like regeneration abilities.

Watched a bit with my son. Too dark for a comic book show. Turned it to Archer.

The source material is certainly not for kids.

I am hoping we get Barracuda or the Vigilante Squad next season.

no way should kids be watching this show. It's not just violence, the gore etc. it's just full of bad people doing bad things to good people.

It's not Disney content. It's Netflix content. Made with ABC studios in most cases if I remember right, not Disney.
