Ngl I was really disappointed with this for all the hype it's been getting.

Mostly because of the writing quality, which was like some kind of horrible pendulum. It'd go from a brilliantly written scene right into one that threw out the most horrendous clichés imaginable... There were actually a couple of instances where my SO, who I watched it with, turned to me and quoted lines before people actually said them.

It was just so bizarrely good and bad at the same time that it kind of lands right in mediocre territory for both of us, I think. It wasn't helped by the fact that we both thought the dude playing Matt Murdock was a butterface (however, we both found Karen impossibly gorgeous, so that made up for it a little bit).

I don't know. I can't hate this show, but I can't like it either.

We're gonna have to agree to disagree on most of this; Marvel's writing is not always on point, but I thought it was pretty strong here. Now was it predictable? Sure, sometimes! There were even a few moments where I guessed the line or what was going to happen next, but I think I've said this before... That isn't a deal-breaker for me as long as I'm enjoying myself and find the material good.

I was also blown away by how gorgeous Karen is, but I thought Matt was all kinds of attractive as well. One minute he's hot as hell, the next he's adorable and I want to pinch his cheeks. I thought he was a nice mixture of both.

We just have very different tastes, apparently. Which is okay; not everyone is going to be satisfied.

Yeah, I don't begrudge people their love of the show, it's just a disappointment to me every time I hear that something is "amazing" and then the writing turns out to be so-so. Not everyone thinks writing is the most important thing, and that's totally fine, but it really is for me. Hell, the reason I stopped watching TV in the first place was because I got to be too much of a writing snob to enjoy it anymore.

...To be fair though, I'm still shipping the Russian mob brothers. Damn it. My weakness.
