Daredevil returns for a second season.
Recap of season 1: super cool blind fighting, dark allies, blood, crazy childhood experiences, and Rosario Dawson. Season 2 looks promising with the addition of The Punisher (Shane from The Walking Dead’s first season) and Elektra (not Jennifer Garner). Remember folks, this is not your Ben Affleck dud of a movie, Daredevil. This is grittier, more fun, and hella compelling. Also has that redhead from True Blood and the guy that is sometimes in a wheelchair in The Butterfly effect.
I will admit the show got a bit boring in the middle but don’t let it deter you from finishing the first season. It’s got a great ending.
In related news, did you watch Jessica Jones yet? You should. I love shows with female leads. Actually all my favorite shows right now are led by women – Scandal, 100, The Fall, and The Mindy Project. And of course there are these other fantastic shows: Veronica Marz, Damages, X-Company, Outlander, Downton Abbey, How To Get Away With Murder, OITNB. Which ones am I missing? Jessica Jones was a lot of fun. The three strong females are the rich ditz from Veronica Mars, the chick that’s not from Gone Girl, and KD Lang’s sister from The Matrix. There is a special spot in my heart for girls taking down a room full of bad guys. It was also cool to see that thin guy from Spartacus. He had a few episodes on Empire too and his shirt choices make me interested in him.
This cash cow is just beginning. Look out for Luke Cage’s own series in the near future. There will be crossovers too, which are always fun. Luke Cage will be the third of four series which will culminate in a special The Defenders miniseries.
I’ll be posting the actors names at the bottom of each blog post because as true as my descriptions are, some people want to know their real names.
