In. They took a character that I gave absolutely zero shits about and gave me compelling entertainment. Looking forward to whatever they come up with. [Reply]
I feel they did a good job with this season considering the reshoots and rewrites that needed to happen after the untimely death of Kamar de los Reyes, but you could feel the show becoming a bit disjointed as the season went along. I still enjoyed it, and I'm glad they're already working on season 2, but the pacing definitely changed after White Tiger was killed. The finale felt.....incomplete, somehow. Total setup for the next season which is fine taking into consideration what they dealt with, as I said. I'm looking forward to it; the actors sell this show as well as any other D+ Marvel effort out there. [Reply]

Spoiler!
It was a bad writing decision to have Castle getting caught, because they would've killed him and no one would know. Matt would had to out himself to make Castle a martyr

It seemed really sloppy for him to get caught how he did. Also shouldn't Matt have known he was there?
Overall I really liked the season. I love Matt and Frank's dynamic. [Reply]
I liked the season, but I agree that the finale felt a little incomplete. I'm not sure why though, because it makes sense from a story perspective. It begins with Matt and Fisk both trying to be something they're not, and ends with them on a collision course, having embraced who they really are. Maybe it's too much conclusion, it makes the season feel like a prelude to what they're doing in season two.
Also a minor complaint, I thought the gore in the finale crossed over into cartoonishness. Blood was exploding out of people like they were in Mortal Kombat. [Reply]
