Well, they’re supposed to be the darker, street level heroes.

Seen four episodes now. Only real negative is what Stip talked about, that he is nearly Superman, and is just fighting local thugs.

I'm alright with that within the concept of these shows. These characters are personally motivated to do what they do. Luke Cage carries the weight of his neighborhood so heavily. No way he'd choose to take on Thanos.

It helped with the kryptonite. Needed something that could make him weak or kill him.

Last episode now. Have then seen all Marvel episodes up until end of 2016.

I've enjoyed this show. Good actors, interesting setting, engaging story.

Excellent. I was at work and couldn't really give it a listen. I was hoping they'd bring him in. Wonder how they'll work his origin.

Ugh! Shades pursed lips are driving me crazy. It doesn't make him look sinister, it makes him look constipated.

shades is a misfire for me and I think Mariah was a stronger character in season 1. But Misty Knight is as great as ever, Luke Cage is fine, and Bushmaster is a fantastic villain. Very much enjoying this so far (more than JJ season 2, which I did like, but pretty much only when Jessica was on screen).

7 episodes in.

Just finished. In general the action sequences aren’t good in the shows that aren’t daredevil or punisher. This season was overlong (as always) but ended in a really surprising direction. I’m looking forward to seeing where they take it

The fight scene with

Iron Fist
had it's moments. Mostly when they pulled out to wider shots. The ending was kind of cool, but

it was the exact same thing that Thor and Captain did in Ultron

Iron Fist is so lame. Stop putting him in things.
