Fuck yeah. That intro song.
I like how they went with one of those Drive-esque pseudo-nostalgia runs, except instead of an 80's feel they have a late 60's/early 70's funk thing going.
So far the series is pretty good. I wouldn't say it's as gripping as Daredevil, but it's still quite action packed and enjoyable.

I'll probably check it out tonight. Almost started it last night but was not quite in the mood.

Enjoying it so far. 4th episode was very good in how it led you to know Reva, his dead wife. It makes his reaction to Jessica make a lot of sense.
5th episode annoyed me by having a completely new character get up and spout psychological methodology in the middle of a gangland staff meeting. Why?

I watched the first episode, but I just got into Carnivalé, so I'm probably gonna leave it for a while. What I saw seemed pretty good, though.

7th episode upped the ante. I'm not sure I like one of the villains, that person just seems corny, but I've only got 2 episodes left.

During that scene in episode 2 where Luke is unleashing his inner Chris Darden on that poor mugger, I was sure Luke was gonna shoot himself in the dick, just to freak him out.
I dunno, I think I've had self-inflicted penile mutilation on the brain lately.

Finished ep 2 today.
Still trying to figure out what I think. Getting an old blaxploitation feel out of the show, but in a good way. Like Jessica Jones though, I'm not really feeling the character much. Not sure if it's the writing the acting or a combination but Daredevil had something these other shows don't and I find them pretty hard to really sink into as a result.

I recommend watching episodes 4 & 7 particularly. If you're still not enjoying it at that point, let it go.

Not enjoying is not really what it is here. It's definitely a good time waster as it stands it's just not as good as Daredevil so far. I'll watch it through regardless as I'm certain all this crap will tie together for the Defenders.

To mirror how Daredevil S2 brought in the Puniser, season 2 should feature Michael K as Blade and have Luke team up with him against Blackulas.
