  • I whole heartedly disagree.

    The entire season was laid out the same way they do comic book runs. There was a series of shorter story arcs which each bled one into the next and all fed into a single overarching arc that lasted through the whole season.

    The 1st episode was a bridge between the Netflix series and Reborn while setting up the overall season arc.

    Episodes 2-3 were the trial of White Tiger while establishing both Muse and the context for the ATVF.

    Episode 4 was a bridge between the White Tiger arc and the Muse arc while furthering the ATVF story.

    Episode 5 was a bottle episode, but did a LOT of world-building and is probably the single most comic booky episode of television Marvel has ever produced.

    Episodes 6-7 was the Muse arc which also fully established the ATVF.

    Episodes 8-9 was the culmination of the season-long arc and bringing Bullseye back into the story.

    Even the season ending on a new paradigm (Fisk’s martial law and beginning the full-on war between Daredevil and Fisk) is such a comic book move.

    I know they came in and had to rework the original plan for the series, but I think they did an excellent job. The only thing I’d have changed is to have more Karen and Frank.
