Started watching this weekend. I'm loving it. Jonathan Bernthal is excellent.

Anybody else?

This show is wavyyy. Netflix and marvel with another hit collabo. Nice to see a hero that treats scum like scum. Instead of the goody two shoes nonsense from DC.

Thoroughly enjoyed it, it's just a shame that some people feel the need to look for this show to address gun violence and treatment of veterans when they come back home. I've seen some reviews critique the show because not enough light was shown on those issues. The show itself was fantastic, Bernthal makes an excellent Castle and really look forward to see how Jigsaw looks next year.

5 eps left and loving every minute. maybe my favorite of the bunch.
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

I was wrong. Yes, you should watch Daredevil first. Nothing wrong with that tho. I really liked it.

Sorry about that. My bad.

I'm 8 episodes deep and really loving this. Even though it's a little on the nose, I'm glad they had the guts to tackle PTSD from a number of different angles while also creating a straight up comic book hero show. The flashbacks, dealing with losses and interactions between the grieving family members are all just as good to me as the action scenes (which are really well done). I gotta finish the season but I can already say that this is gonna be in the upper echelon of the netflix series' standout seasons. Luke Cage and Jessica Jones both had some slowdown points, Daredevil had every scene where Foggy whines, Iron Fist never quite clicked...this is a top dog contender because it's hit the right stride on the mystery elements along with the action sequences.

I just finished it today. i found the whole thing purely brilliant, especially due to the respect it seems to show for the experience of servicepeople. might be the best individual season from the MCU yet. and i thought very highly of DD season 1, jessica jones, and luke cage.

I don't see how people could critique it for those things. Pretty much the whole show deals with those two elements especially vets and ptsd. I don't think there has been a major show that has gone that in depth about what happens to our vets when they come home.
