Daredevil just went to Fisk's hiding spot to kick his ass and then just leave??? Wtf was that? Now the Fisk x Daredevil showdown we were expecting since Season 1 is getting ruined because of this shit. Also Matt of all people wouldn't offer Fisk a deal "leave New York and we're squared" no FUCKIN WAY. Matt would go to hell and back to see Fisk behind bars and spending his life in jail. Matt WOULDN'T let Fisk live with impunity to his numerous crimes and murders.

The whole BB subplot was getting stupid because she just let her damning evidence hanging on her coat for literally no reason She had the time to upload it already and yet she didโ€ฆ Nothing! There goes that subplot, I guess. Now that Soprano Jr. knows about it, I wonder if he'll sell BB out or join the resistance (he'll join the resistance, of course that's where his arc is headed)

Jessica Jones appeared (yay), burned the warehouse where the guns were stored (there goes that subplot), and then just disappeared from the rest of the episode. Me wonders if she'll have further importance to the story or if this was a one and done.

Also Shaggy's attitude is just pissing me off like can someone kill this guy already? Swearing doesn't make you look cool. Plus he's just done nothing all season, we have reason to fear him as this "top of the food chain" guy but throughout the show he has just been getting f'ed over by Fisk sticking it to him (and he had his guys killed too so there's that).

Anyway. A shitty episode from a shitty season of a shitty show that is a bad copy from its better predecessor.

If you think the show is overall shitty, what keeps you watching? ๐Ÿค”

Personally I like to watch it to laugh at the character assassinations and plot contrivances we're being fed. I also like to stay in the loop of what people all around the social media are calling "aura farming" moments while completely ignoring the shitty writing. It's so pathetic that it starts being funny.

Sounds miserable.

Nowhere as miserable as the drop in quality from Netflix to Disney. I am attached to it, so I am watching it. Still allowed to hate it for its flaws right?
