    Daredevil's cancelled.
    Okay, a bit baffled now. Is Netflix MCU dead?

    "While the series on Netflix has ended, the three existing seasons will remain on the service for years to come, while the Daredevil character will live on in future projects for Marvel."

    Season 3 is a huuuge improvement over the previous seasons, definitely the best MCU television since S1 of Jessica Jones, though in some ways surpassing it. This is far more focused and well paced than any previous season of the Netflix Marvel fare, though one episode dedicated mostly to Karen Page flashbacks comes at an inopportune time and isn't particularly interesting. It mostly feels like one consistent story arc that doesn't get sidetracked or padded. I'm still not a fan of Vincent D'Onofrio's character or performance, though his menacing schemes woven throughout the story go a long way in painting him as threatening and building up the stakes, which feel especially personal in this outing.

    And they've really outdone themselves on the action. I've felt the long-take fights from previous seasons were a tad overrated and mostly felt like the team showing off for its own sake. With the biggest fights in S3, the long-takes are shorter, but put to better use. Not overextending the takes affords them opportunity to throw in more elaborate stunts and more flexibility in editing, while still clearly establishing the geography and layout and doing justice to the elegant, brutal fight choreography as long-takes are meant to. The newspaper building fight is one of the most eye-popping action sequences I've ever seen on a television budget.

    I had largely written off Marvel's television fare after so many disappointments in the last three years, but now I will be genuinely saddened if Daredevil joins Luge Cage and Iron Fist in getting axed.

    I'll try to hold off on stating my opinions on the show for now but christ this lead actor can't fake an american accent for shit. Stop giving him lines, it's so distracting.

    btw watching through all the MCU shows right now, in the order of when each season premiered.

      Editing … I think Charlie Cox is the best part of the show. His Matt Murdock is fantastic. His accent slips a couple times but for the most part it's on-point.

      Editing … NO, this guy's accent is on Ewan McGregor levels of STOP CASTING HIM AS AN AMERICAN, it doesn't slip, it never hits the mark!

    Finished the first season :) Despite a couple of stinkers, overall this series was really good. It's a shame the lows were so low, but when it did hit it's stride, it was exceptional. Definitely looking forward to seeing more of this :)

      Editing … IMO, the second season is fantastic! I was never a big fan of the character, so I was very pleasantly surprised with how well this series hooked me. You'll love The Punisher in the second season.

    After having been sidetracked by both #Arrow and #Gotham, I decided to watch another episode of Daredevil. Holy crap was that boring as shit. I'm definitely having more fun with the DC shows. I'll stick with it though, because for a couple of episodes it was actually getting really good.

      Editing … Yeah, that's true I guess. Guess I'll have to watch Jessica Jones and Luke Cage before that arrives.

      Editing … Apparently we'll be seeing the whole Daredevil cast in Defenders so I guess they'll be tying up the season 2 cliffhangers before season 3.
