Agree. Along with Interstellar's "Mankind was born on Earth. It was never meant to die here" quote, that quote from Daredevil is my most favorite quote from any media, ever.
Dude can write a kickass comic but dang that was mean. The failure to do anything ultimately interesting with those two characters is the single greatest flaw of Daredevil and the other shows that used them and the only major critique I can think of at the moment that I really have with the series.
@@Tyler_W Just realised why the reveal of Black Sky is so out of nowhere when it's very clearly him. They've been setting up since season 1 and the payoff is juz mindboggling.
That, and the fact that the Black Sky was...never explained. I presume it's a mystical thing; Elektra is just like, "I'm the Black Sky. I have to embrace my nature." But neither Elektra nor Matt nor the audience really know what the Black Sky even is. It seems to be a human who is...born with a murderous nature and mad fighting skills? That person still doesn't sound invincible, but Stick says the Black Sky is super-dangerous. For that matter, we don't even know why The Hand wanted to have a Black Sky in Hell's Kitchen. The Chinese and the Japanese are presumably rival gangs who work together loosely under Fisk, but Nobu and Gao are both Hand members. Did they want to use the BS to take down Fisk? What were their goals after that? (They don't exactly seem intent on domination a geographic area or...really anything except being rich via illicit trafficking.) Giving Nobu an arc and some idea of what, exactly, The Hand was after would have made stengthened S2 immeaurably and made it more enjoyable. @Tyler_W

10:54 Damn. I didn't notice the symmetry between Fisk's dad beating his wife to Wilson beating Daredevil. I'm starting to love the layers the more and more I learn about everything that went into the writing. This show is really on another level
@@ninjanibba4259 People don’t seem to understand that. Just because the shows can’t afford the stars of the movies, there are references which make it obvious that they are part of the whole. Battle of Harlem from Incredible Hulk and Battle of NY.
I’ve always said Daredevil is my favorite christian show. It does a better job portraying faith than any christian movie/show I’ve seen (other than maybe the Chosen). It frustrates me to no end that christian filmmakers seem to think they have to choose between representing their faith and telling a good story when DD is over here doing both!
As a fellow Christian, I 100% agree! I really like how DD handles the topic of questioning ones faith too, because so many Christian movies portray that topic so poorly, if at all, even though it's something that so many Christians go through.
Yes! The depiction of faith isn't ham-fisted or pandering in any way. As a Catholic, I feel like Catholicism has tons of representation in media, but rarely relatable ones. It often feels caricature-y in other movies and shows. But in Daredevil, especially S3, man, Matt's crisis of faith just hits so close to home. It's so well-done and so natural, much props to the writers for the authentic dialogue, the director, and of course, Charlie Cox' genuine and phenomenal portrayal of Matt. S3 especially was so cathartic.
Heck, even as an atheist I can appreciate this. It feels real. A lot of those movies talk about faith but it always feel superficial and shallow when they do it. Matt's story speaks to a deeper struggle of trying to be a better version of yourself, how complicated and messy that can be, and how his faith keeps him on the right path.
17:00 stories like this make me wonder how on earth people that shelve stories like Nobu's even got into the industry in the first place. Asian-Cinema (Samurai, Kung Fu, Drama, Anime, etc.) has a HUGE American (or Western in general) following and has for decades now. How on earth could anyone in this business ever think that no one cares about any Asian characters in a story whether they are Chinese, Vietnamese or anything else? That completely boggles my mind...
Same here. I don’t get it. And the funniest thing? The most hardcore manga and anime fans I’ve met are usually black, the people least represented in those comics. So the whole “nobody cares” is just statistically bullshit. And what was this guy’s example? “Blade killed 200 Asians in 1998 and nobody cared”, WTF kind of logic is that? Those were disposable henchmen, not even characters.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and all the rest of the Asian movies. I grew up watching Kung Fu and martial arts films. Jackie Chan and how many other Asian actors have become fan-favorites in the US and the rest of the "West"??? I can't quite fathom this idea either. I mean in a way it resounds how David Carradine ended up playing a character created by Bruce Lee - because Bruce looked "too Asian" to play an Asian character. So it sounds entirely plausible but at the same time it's insane.
@@zrc1514 I didn't coin it; Hollywood did. Bruce Lee wrote the character and wanted to play it but Hollywood put David Carradine into the role because they thought at that time that Bruce wouldn't attract American audiences.
33:29 i just wanted to clarify that Karen didn't waste her life with her boyfriend, she worked with him as a drug dealer to help resolve the financial troubles. When her dad buys a new grill they can't afford, he tells her that she'll figure out a way to pay for it like she always does. When her brother gets her into college, its not so much her boyfriend she's conflicted about, but the knowledge her family's diner will go under if she leaves, and she's angry that her father is too deluded to realize. not really sure how you missed all that but great video essay otherwise.
Daredevil is my favorite live action superhero show, but man, Jeph Loeb is a real piece of shit, isn't he? Never thought I'd say this about the person who wrote Batman: The Long Halloween, but that's the truth.
I personally do find it odd since Jeph Loeb has produced shows with POC characters. Though anything can happen, all this is, is he said, she said stuff, and there is no (To my knowledge) any evidence to defend and go against Jeph Loeb.
@@theflashgordon193 nothing official yet, we really have no idea if they’re gonna use daredevil at all, let alone recast him. But if they do recast him or really anyone from the Netflix shows, that may well mean a good chunk of the fanbase leaving
Wow, I was not aware of Loeb's anti-asian stance. That's appalling, especially in the light of Kevin Feige's recent push for more asian representation in the MCU
I thought Nobu and Gao were some of the most interesting characters on the show/shows. Gao was the single point that brought all the Marvel Netflix shows together. She was the through line.
It's interesting how Loeb and Feige's opposition with each other created great Marvel content. Loeb's anti-Asian stance hinders Daredevil S2 and Defender series (most likely Iron Fist too since it's based on Asian culture) to be great, while Feige's total control in Marvel Studios after Endgame hinders Phase 4 to be great since he's too focus on diversity sacrificing great storytelling (Yes! MCU Phase 4 sucks!). Political stances bleeding TOO MUCH in their job while forgetting their goal to entertain is probably the reason why modern Western media is so ugly right now. What do you think?
It's rare that a TV show that got axed gets me continuously looking for news of its revival, 3 years down the line since it's cancellation. This show made me learn so much both as a person and a writer.
I'm still pissed off that Netflix canceled the show Daredevil is easy one of the best superhero shows of all time I said nothing can ever top this what the second best show right now is Superman and Lois but Daredevil is in a whole other level I miss this show so much I still hope that Disney plus will get it or Hulu
typhoid mary is my favorite marvel villain and her and matt's relationship is really interesting, so whenever I'm reminded that they were going to bring her in for s4 my heart breaks even more ;-;
Season 1 ep 2, the hallway fight scene will be one of my favorite scenes in all of fiction. It's so gritty and realistic and it feels like a man just trying his best to save someone. I love it so much!
I rewatch this show at least two times a year now, I will never forget the greatest live Action Hero show ever. It might seem like a bad hot take but Daredevil >>>>>>>> MCU, just my opinion.
The best things the mcu has released are loki, Infinity war, Fatws, Ragnarok and as intriguing that loki is, as hype as IW is, as surprisingly deep as fatws is and as funny as ragnarok is none of them hold a candle to Daredevil. Best comic book stuff 1. Daredevil 2. Wonder woman 3. Spiderverse

As a curious guy, while being a believer, there were some times in my life when I used to think about _'why God let bad things happen?'_ and well, I had my own answers to that but I wasn't sure if I was the only one who's thinking that way, but then I heard these two beautiful quotes in this Netflix's masterpiece and ultimately got the confirmation that what I think is not uncommon and also, I got some better and beautiful words/sentences to describe that easily: *_"God’s plan is like a beautiful tapestry. And the tragedy of being human is that we only get to see it from the back. With all the ragged threads and the muddy colors. And we only get a hint at the true beauty that would be revealed if we could see the whole pattern on the other side…. as God does."_* .... and the other one is - *_"Maybe that was God's plan all along. Why He created him (Satan/Devil), allowed him to fall from grace, to become a symbol to be feared.... warning to us all, ''to tread the path of the righteous''."_* So, for me, the best part of season 3 was when Matthew, 'after losing his faith and later redeeming it', himself said this quote - "God’s plan is like a beautiful tapestry.... - as the greatest counter to non-believers who disrespect God and believers' faith, by saying that "if there's a God why does He let bad things happen to people?". Netflix's Daredevil showcases the beauty of faith and God's plan in the best way, meanwhile half of Hollywood and other pop-culture stuff just bashes religion and promote anti-faith and anti-religious things. - This is coming from a guy who's not a Christian, but a believer.
@@JdeMolayIt's talking about the limited perspective humans have of the impact of their own lives (as dealt with in "It's a Wonderful Life.") God exists outside of time and can see all of that was, is, and shall be at once. God sees the whole picture, while all I see are my problems and my joys and that of the handful of people that I know in a world populated by billions. God sees all of it. He is good and does good and even twists bad things around and uses them for good (e.g., Job learned to be humble and to trust God when God allowed Satan to destroy Job's life. In DD, God used Matt's blindness and heightened senses to teach him to get back up, to fight even when no one else is, when no one else expects it of Matt. Matt says that God used the traffic accident and his subsequent tragic childhood (Stick's training, etc.) to form him into DD. Matt wouldn't have been able been able to fight for justice the way he does or take down Fisk if not for DD. Matt says that God used Matt's sad life to form Matt into DD so that Matt could do good things.
once charlie cox's Matt Murdock goes home to mcu, I hope they continue what was originally and wondering where the character will go next is interesting.
Daredevil has been my 2nd or 3rd favorite Marvel hero for forever, but not even I expected how much I'd love this show. The entire ensemble is brilliantly cast. Cox and D'Onofrio in particular are perfect. I absolutely love the noir aesthetics of the first two seasons, and even though that's really what they should've stuck with for season 3, the psychological action-thriller vibe was legit too. It has some of the best action choreography I've ever seen in a TV show in terms of hand-to-hand combat. It does the main character justice, and I greatly appreciated the sincerity and genuineness with which they handled the complexity of his religious faith.
I could never forget The Netflix Daredevil series...not only was it pretty dam'n good in my opinion, but a high school friend of mine did the stunts for Daredevil.

@@Seasonal-Shadow_4674 Why are you posting this everywhere? Is it that surprising that some dumb high school kids have bad taste in superhero shows? It's not that big of a deal, man get over it. Why are you so affected by other people's opinions on tv shows?
I’m a huge Daredevil fan! I will always give praise to this show for introducing us to my personal favorite Marvel character of all time: The Punisher! Jon Bernthal and Charlie Cox are the best things out of Marvel Netflix!
I only just started this video but the second I saw the title and the video length I got a huge rush of excitement. Time to pop out the popcorn I am being fed today.
Still remember the day when I fell in love with the show on the release of season 1. I will never forget Daredevil and will keep hope Charlie comes back.
Daredevil & Jessica Jones were truly Netflix/Marvel jems that should've had more time to shine 😭 Also JJ did end on a bitter note but I liked how the final scene showed Jessica still deciding to stay in New York despite everything that's happened to her (at least that's how interpreted the final scene) and in a way I think it's a fitting way to end the JJ. I think it was the perfect encapsulation of her character as someone who, despite how much she has faced, still picks herself back up and keeps going
I went to see the video and I was like "ooh! Me likey" So I expect the video to be on like the first season and for it to be like 15 minutes. But then, WHAM! 40 MINUTES OF SCREENTIME! Not complaining just wasn't expecting. This video is gonna be great
With Charlie Cox’s Daredevil strongly rumored to be soft rebooted in the MCU, Ms. Marvel coming from a practicing Muslim family and even the original Captain America professing a belief in an Abrahamic God (and by extension Mack from Agents of Shield doing the same even though he’s no longer MCU canon) it will be interesting to see how Disney incorporates a belief in a One Singular Cosmic Entity (God) as the origin of all things in a universe filled with lesser cosmic deities and concepts that on the surface at least, seems to contradict the Judeo/Christian/Islamic belief.
I mean, there is a God like being in the Marvel comics, the One Above All, maybe he’ll make his way into the MCU at some point. Even though maybe they don’t want to touch on that too much, because good luck explaining how can Thor walk around on Earth and there’s not a huge resurgence of Paganism and abandonment of monotheistic beliefs (since he’s the only “god” who actually showed up).
@@supersaiyangoddess4293 they were used to. in the age of vikings. but in mcu humanity has more reasons to see them as just another alien species along with many others in space
I can’t wait for him to be in NWH, I’m hopeful they will continue his story from the Netflix show since they where always established in the mcu and they don’t have much reason to retcon that.
I’m glad you brought attention to the nobu cut storyline in your video. That’s so terrible and sad and ridiculous. People should be aware of the kinds of decision making go on behind the scenes of their favorite shows
Daredevil is slick is my favorite Super Hero just because of his show. I'm hoping to god that they bring him back in Spider-Man 3 like the rumors say. I will lose my shit in the theater if that's the case. Please Marvel, you can't let this character die.
"He doesn't wear his sunglasses because he doesn't see the world in a rose-tinted way anymore". I'll always find this line funny, because for a second, my man forgot Matt is blind. He doesn't see PERIOD.
Such a fantastic show, and I just love everything you highlighted and said about it. I love that about writing and art, there's so much to be explored and communicated, so many nuances and everything, it's just amazing. Thanks for the video!
@@yolooo5081 does it have to be? I view the Netflix shows the same level as the Disney plus ones, tho the Netflix shows have more time to work with, they all explore the same thing and themes Lines and where to stop, and what happens when you do vs what things that are sacrificed doing certain things All these shows do this, so Disney plus and Netflix follow the same lines, and honestly I wish people would see that
Problem is that the Disney logo carries more weight than people wamt to believe. Some people give more weight and admiration to their projects. So people will dole out more A's, 90+ scores, positive tweets and advertising, etc. It's fudged up but that's how it works.
These Netflix shows are R-rated for violence and mature themes. That's why they aren't as popular because kids aren't allowed to watch. Just think what Captain Marvel could've been if it would've told about that relationship with Vers and Yon-Rogg, and dive more into her manipulation by him. But that would've been seen too scary for younger audience. :(
The Netflix shows have always been at a disadvantage because 1) Fans of the MCU movies are quick to dismiss them because the characters don't crossover in the films, and their stories doesn't contribute to the MCU plotline, so they don't even give it a chance, regardless if it's good or not, 2) The Marvel shows are kind of the main and few things that Disney+ is offering right now, so it gets all the promotion and love from Disney. Meanwhile there are a lot of Netflix originals that the Netflix Marvel shows had to compete with in terms of getting the promotional love from Netflix. Netflix themselves never quite gave its Marvel shows the same kind of attention and effort in promotion. Meanwhile Disney+ social media accounts are all out in promoting their Marvel shows. 3) As mentioned, these new shows impact the events in the movies, so even people who don't like the characters that are stars of the show, they are compelled to watch it. (I know someone who doesn't like Wanda but watched WandaVision because it leads into Doctor Strange 2. The Netflix Marvel shows never stood a chance. These Disney+ shows are piggybacking off the success of a massive 23-movie franchise, while the Netflix shows started from scratch
I never had such emotional connection with a series before. Literally getting adrenaline rushes after almost every episode... The constant and smart plot twists, the character development, the interaction and symbolism of faith in the series, the perfect acting, the way they made every character (even the most evil) relatable and somehow flawed - human. It's trully the best superhero serie I have ever seen and it made Daredevil my favorite Marvel character. Ohhh and yes HOW HOT IS MATT MURDOCK
I came to the Daredevil table late & now I’m obsessed with it. I didn’t enjoy Iron Fist or Jessica Jones anywhere near as much when they came out & skipped Luke Cage completely. I don’t usually watch TV show or movies with intent to analyze them. I get the themes subconsciously but don’t think about them deeply. So I enjoy channels like this that explore those themes running under the main storyline. Usually, I’m like “oh, yeah! I can see that!” or “whoa, didn’t think of that at all.” So thanks for the effort you put into this!
great analysis of daredevil, it's probably my fav show ever... was so heartbroken when it got cancelled :( also the butter lyrics in the description LOL
Wow this essay is just great not only I loved this show when I first watched out but these words, these messages, and connections are what make me fall in love again with this show, thank you

But neither Elektra nor Matt nor the audience really know what the Black Sky even is. It seems to be a human who is...born with a murderous nature and mad fighting skills? That person still doesn't sound invincible, but Stick says the Black Sky is super-dangerous. For that matter, we don't even know why The Hand wanted to have a Black Sky in Hell's Kitchen. The Chinese and the Japanese are presumably rival gangs who work together loosely under Fisk, but Nobu and Gao are both Hand members. Did they want to use the BS to take down Fisk? What were their goals after that? (They don't exactly seem intent on domination a geographic area or...really anything except being rich via illicit trafficking.) Giving Nobu an arc and some idea of what, exactly, The Hand was after would have made stengthened S2 immeaurably and made it more enjoyable. @Tyler_W

Daredevil isn't just the best superhero shows. It's one of the best shows on Netflix.
Above average for what Netflix usually has.
It was one of the best shows on Netflix. Disney is like a dog digging a hole for its bone.
Not only is Matt and Electra's relationship well written, the actors also have great chemistry.

I’ve always said Daredevil is my favorite christian show. It does a better job portraying faith than any christian movie/show I’ve seen (other than maybe the Chosen). It frustrates me to no end that christian filmmakers seem to think they have to choose between representing their faith and telling a good story when DD is over here doing both!
As a fellow Christian, I 100% agree! I really like how DD handles the topic of questioning ones faith too, because so many Christian movies portray that topic so poorly, if at all, even though it's something that so many Christians go through.
Yes! The depiction of faith isn't ham-fisted or pandering in any way. As a Catholic, I feel like Catholicism has tons of representation in media, but rarely relatable ones. It often feels caricature-y in other movies and shows. But in Daredevil, especially S3, man, Matt's crisis of faith just hits so close to home. It's so well-done and so natural, much props to the writers for the authentic dialogue, the director, and of course, Charlie Cox' genuine and phenomenal portrayal of Matt. S3 especially was so cathartic.
Heck, even as an atheist I can appreciate this. It feels real. A lot of those movies talk about faith but it always feel superficial and shallow when they do it. Matt's story speaks to a deeper struggle of trying to be a better version of yourself, how complicated and messy that can be, and how his faith keeps him on the right path.
Same here! I'm not Christian but I follow a Monotheistic religion and DD's faith in one god always was done right
Funny how a show about a guy dressed up as a literal devil handles the topic of Christianity better than most Christian movies.
17:00 stories like this make me wonder how on earth people that shelve stories like Nobu's even got into the industry in the first place. Asian-Cinema (Samurai, Kung Fu, Drama, Anime, etc.) has a HUGE American (or Western in general) following and has for decades now. How on earth could anyone in this business ever think that no one cares about any Asian characters in a story whether they are Chinese, Vietnamese or anything else? That completely boggles my mind...
Same here. I don’t get it. And the funniest thing? The most hardcore manga and anime fans I’ve met are usually black, the people least represented in those comics. So the whole “nobody cares” is just statistically bullshit. And what was this guy’s example? “Blade killed 200 Asians in 1998 and nobody cared”, WTF kind of logic is that? Those were disposable henchmen, not even characters.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and all the rest of the Asian movies. I grew up watching Kung Fu and martial arts films. Jackie Chan and how many other Asian actors have become fan-favorites in the US and the rest of the "West"??? I can't quite fathom this idea either. I mean in a way it resounds how David Carradine ended up playing a character created by Bruce Lee - because Bruce looked "too Asian" to play an Asian character. So it sounds entirely plausible but at the same time it's insane.
@@WickedPrince3D What the heck is "too Asian"?!
@@zrc1514 I didn't coin it; Hollywood did. Bruce Lee wrote the character and wanted to play it but Hollywood put David Carradine into the role because they thought at that time that Bruce wouldn't attract American audiences.
@@WickedPrince3D Well glad they got proved wrong.
33:29 i just wanted to clarify that Karen didn't waste her life with her boyfriend, she worked with him as a drug dealer to help resolve the financial troubles. When her dad buys a new grill they can't afford, he tells her that she'll figure out a way to pay for it like she always does. When her brother gets her into college, its not so much her boyfriend she's conflicted about, but the knowledge her family's diner will go under if she leaves, and she's angry that her father is too deluded to realize. not really sure how you missed all that but great video essay otherwise.
35:49 yes, Foggy and Karen are very awesome characters. I miss them. I also really like Marci.
Season 2 will forever be the purest interpretation of Daredevil ever brought to the screen.
And Punisher. I honestly feel that they treated him better here than his own show

Daredevil is my favorite live action superhero show, but man, Jeph Loeb is a real piece of shit, isn't he? Never thought I'd say this about the person who wrote Batman: The Long Halloween, but that's the truth.
I personally do find it odd since Jeph Loeb has produced shows with POC characters. Though anything can happen, all this is, is he said, she said stuff, and there is no (To my knowledge) any evidence to defend and go against Jeph Loeb.
@@drarkham3573 True. Sure hope it's not true.
If the MCU will reboot Daredevil, i'm gonna hate Kevin Feige forever, the fandom will be divided as well.
Already hated him since the “Bohner” joke
soft reboot ? they want to cast an other actor for darevil ?
@@theflashgordon193 nothing official yet, we really have no idea if they’re gonna use daredevil at all, let alone recast him. But if they do recast him or really anyone from the Netflix shows, that may well mean a good chunk of the fanbase leaving
Hello matt in nwh
Wow, I was not aware of Loeb's anti-asian stance. That's appalling, especially in the light of Kevin Feige's recent push for more asian representation in the MCU
like you said, "recent push"
I thought Nobu and Gao were some of the most interesting characters on the show/shows. Gao was the single point that brought all the Marvel Netflix shows together. She was the through line.
It's interesting how Loeb and Feige's opposition with each other created great Marvel content. Loeb's anti-Asian stance hinders Daredevil S2 and Defender series (most likely Iron Fist too since it's based on Asian culture) to be great, while Feige's total control in Marvel Studios after Endgame hinders Phase 4 to be great since he's too focus on diversity sacrificing great storytelling (Yes! MCU Phase 4 sucks!). Political stances bleeding TOO MUCH in their job while forgetting their goal to entertain is probably the reason why modern Western media is so ugly right now. What do you think?
Money, money, money
It's rare that a TV show that got axed gets me continuously looking for news of its revival, 3 years down the line since it's cancellation. This show made me learn so much both as a person and a writer.
I'm still pissed off that Netflix canceled the show Daredevil is easy one of the best superhero shows of all time I said nothing can ever top this what the second best show right now is Superman and Lois but Daredevil is in a whole other level I miss this show so much I still hope that Disney plus will get it or Hulu
typhoid mary is my favorite marvel villain and her and matt's relationship is really interesting, so whenever I'm reminded that they were going to bring her in for s4 my heart breaks even more ;-;
Season 1 ep 2, the hallway fight scene will be one of my favorite scenes in all of fiction. It's so gritty and realistic and it feels like a man just trying his best to save someone. I love it so much!
I rewatch this show at least two times a year now, I will never forget the greatest live Action Hero show ever. It might seem like a bad hot take but Daredevil >>>>>>>> MCU, just my opinion.
We can take it, i agree with this
Pete
it should be true but the cinematography and writing are better than most MCU movie
The best things the mcu has released are loki, Infinity war, Fatws, Ragnarok and as intriguing that loki is, as hype as IW is, as surprisingly deep as fatws is and as funny as ragnarok is none of them hold a candle to Daredevil.
Best comic book stuff
1. Daredevil
2. Wonder woman
3. Spiderverse
Don’t worry I won’t forget him
I'll never forget Daredevil
Man, that Bullseye tease and the plans they had for Owl and Typhoid Mary broke me. I’m happy with how they closed it, but still. Same with Luke Cage.
my favorite superhero. always has been. hes a true inspiration.
Sadly as a Daredevil fan, In the real world, I’ve heard so many bs criticisms about Daredevil. Sadly, The Arrowverse(Flash and Arrow seem to be more popular in terms of views) The Marvel TV shows were not popular at my school and got a lot of hate. A lot of people Ik in my high school and adults I know dropped Daredevil before the Stick episode and complained the character is lame, he’s stupid cause he is blind, his suit is lame and really dumb, the show is too boring, slow, dark, violent, Daredevil should have let things be, he’s lame because of the Ben Affleck 20th Century Fox Movie in 2003 and the show got too stale (these are all season 1 complaints) and so many people wouldn’t listen to me when watching it and listened to other people with their suggestions. People have argued and said this shit to my face I went to a huge school and I barely found
This show is amazing.
daredevil is so underrated tgat it hurts. i hope marvel wont mess up and continue charlie cox as the daredevil.
Season 3 Is like someone made a show specifically for me.
My favourite piece of art ever.
Correction, the BEST show ever made. Not just Super Hero show
Agree
I just loved this show so so much. This and Jessica Jones were my absolute favourites. I really hate we didn't get more of those two shows...
I LOVE how the quality of the Daredevil comics bled to the series. DD has been character blessed with an abundance of great stories filled with rich moral themes and dilemmas. Thank you for this IP!
Best marvel show period
best tv show ever.
The racism involved in the dropping of Nobu and Madam Gao's plots is devastating...
I love that the descriptions of Matt's character can also be used to describe the quality of the show at that moment in time. 🤣
I do want Matt to meet Peter.
He and Holland's Spiderman would be the best foils to each other

As a curious guy, while being a believer, there were some times in my life when I used to think about _'why God let bad things happen?'_ and well, I had my own answers to that but I wasn't sure if I was the only one who's thinking that way, but then I heard these two beautiful quotes in this Netflix's masterpiece and ultimately got the confirmation that what I think is not uncommon and also, I got some better and beautiful words/sentences to describe that easily:
*_"God’s plan is like a beautiful tapestry. And the tragedy of being human is that we only get to see it from the back. With all the ragged threads and the muddy colors. And we only get a hint at the true beauty that would be revealed if we could see the whole pattern on the other side…. as God does."_*
.... and the other one is -
*_"Maybe that was God's plan all along. Why He created him (Satan/Devil), allowed him to fall from grace, to become a symbol to be feared.... warning to us all, ''to tread the path of the righteous''."_*
So, for me, the best part of season 3 was when Matthew, 'after losing his faith and later redeeming it', himself said this quote - "God’s plan is like a beautiful tapestry.... - as the greatest counter to non-believers who disrespect God and believers' faith, by saying that "if there's a God why does He let bad things happen to people?".
Netflix's Daredevil showcases the beauty of faith and God's plan in the best way, meanwhile half of Hollywood and other pop-culture stuff just bashes religion and promote anti-faith and anti-religious things.
- This is coming from a guy who's not a Christian, but a believer.
I don't really understand that metaphor
@@JdeMolayIt's talking about the limited perspective humans have of the impact of their own lives (as dealt with in "It's a Wonderful Life.") God exists outside of time and can see all of that was, is, and shall be at once. God sees the whole picture, while all I see are my problems and my joys and that of the handful of people that I know in a world populated by billions. God sees all of it. He is good and does good and even twists bad things around and uses them for good (e.g., Job learned to be humble and to trust God when God allowed Satan to destroy Job's life. In DD, God used Matt's blindness and heightened senses to teach him to get back up, to fight even when no one else is, when no one else expects it of Matt. Matt says that God used the traffic accident and his subsequent tragic childhood (Stick's training, etc.) to form him into DD. Matt wouldn't have been able been able to fight for justice the way he does or take down Fisk if not for DD. Matt says that God used Matt's sad life to form Matt into DD so that Matt could do good things.
once charlie cox's Matt Murdock goes home to mcu, I hope they continue what was originally and wondering where the character will go next is interesting.
Daredevil has been my 2nd or 3rd favorite Marvel hero for forever, but not even I expected how much I'd love this show. The entire ensemble is brilliantly cast. Cox and D'Onofrio in particular are perfect. I absolutely love the noir aesthetics of the first two seasons, and even though that's really what they should've stuck with for season 3, the psychological action-thriller vibe was legit too. It has some of the best action choreography I've ever seen in a TV show in terms of hand-to-hand combat. It does the main character justice, and I greatly appreciated the sincerity and genuineness with which they handled the complexity of his religious faith.
the final stand of good marvel stuff before disney took over.
Those 'single' shots of daredevil fighting through goons every season....idk how they did it but holy s***zle is that s**t amazing asf
You don't have to censor yourself, you're alright.
I could never forget The Netflix Daredevil series...not only was it pretty dam'n good in my opinion, but a high school friend of mine did the stunts for Daredevil.
Aww man! I love this show, I'll give it a rewatch over the summer

I only just started this video but the second I saw the title and the video length I got a huge rush of excitement. Time to pop out the popcorn I am being fed today.
Still remember the day when I fell in love with the show on the release of season 1. I will never forget Daredevil and will keep hope Charlie comes back.
The best piece of Marvel entertainment to date.
Daredevil & Jessica Jones were truly Netflix/Marvel jems that should've had more time to shine 😭
Also JJ did end on a bitter note but I liked how the final scene showed Jessica still deciding to stay in New York despite everything that's happened to her (at least that's how interpreted the final scene) and in a way I think it's a fitting way to end the JJ. I think it was the perfect encapsulation of her character as someone who, despite how much she has faced, still picks herself back up and keeps going
This is 100% the best Comic Book Show of all time.

With Charlie Cox’s Daredevil strongly rumored to be soft rebooted in the MCU, Ms. Marvel coming from a practicing Muslim family and even the original Captain America professing a belief in an Abrahamic God (and by extension Mack from Agents of Shield doing the same even though he’s no longer MCU canon) it will be interesting to see how Disney incorporates a belief in a One Singular Cosmic Entity (God) as the origin of all things in a universe filled with lesser cosmic deities and concepts that on the surface at least, seems to contradict the Judeo/Christian/Islamic belief.
I mean, there is a God like being in the Marvel comics, the One Above All, maybe he’ll make his way into the MCU at some point. Even though maybe they don’t want to touch on that too much, because good luck explaining how can Thor walk around on Earth and there’s not a huge resurgence of Paganism and abandonment of monotheistic beliefs (since he’s the only “god” who actually showed up).
Why do you think they said Asgardians aren't God's in the movies like they are in the comics.

Honestly when the Disney+ shows proved popular and enjoyable, it made me all the more bitter that these shows weren't loved in the same way.
They were love and is very popular. The problem, it is netflix and not disney plus project.
@@yolooo5081 does it have to be? I view the Netflix shows the same level as the Disney plus ones, tho the Netflix shows have more time to work with, they all explore the same thing and themes
Lines and where to stop, and what happens when you do vs what things that are sacrificed doing certain things
All these shows do this, so Disney plus and Netflix follow the same lines, and honestly I wish people would see that
Problem is that the Disney logo carries more weight than people wamt to believe. Some people give more weight and admiration to their projects. So people will dole out more A's, 90+ scores, positive tweets and advertising, etc. It's fudged up but that's how it works.
These Netflix shows are R-rated for violence and mature themes. That's why they aren't as popular because kids aren't allowed to watch.
Just think what Captain Marvel could've been if it would've told about that relationship with Vers and Yon-Rogg, and dive more into her manipulation by him. But that would've been seen too scary for younger audience. :(
The Netflix shows have always been at a disadvantage because 1) Fans of the MCU movies are quick to dismiss them because the characters don't crossover in the films, and their stories doesn't contribute to the MCU plotline, so they don't even give it a chance, regardless if it's good or not, 2) The Marvel shows are kind of the main and few things that Disney+ is offering right now, so it gets all the promotion and love from Disney. Meanwhile there are a lot of Netflix originals that the Netflix Marvel shows had to compete with in terms of getting the promotional love from Netflix. Netflix themselves never quite gave its Marvel shows the same kind of attention and effort in promotion. Meanwhile Disney+ social media accounts are all out in promoting their Marvel shows. 3) As mentioned, these new shows impact the events in the movies, so even people who don't like the characters that are stars of the show, they are compelled to watch it. (I know someone who doesn't like Wanda but watched WandaVision because it leads into Doctor Strange 2. The Netflix Marvel shows never stood a chance. These Disney+ shows are piggybacking off the success of a massive 23-movie franchise, while the Netflix shows started from scratch
I never had such emotional connection with a series before. Literally getting adrenaline rushes after almost every episode... The constant and smart plot twists, the character development, the interaction and symbolism of faith in the series, the perfect acting, the way they made every character (even the most evil) relatable and somehow flawed - human.
It's trully the best superhero serie I have ever seen and it made Daredevil my favorite Marvel character. Ohhh and yes HOW HOT IS MATT MURDOCK
Missed opportunity to say Daredevil: Born again for part 3 of the video
Especially with the success of Shang-Chi, the omission of Nobu's backstory is frankly insulting.
The serotonin this gave me😩💙 THANK YOUUUU!!!

Literally such a good show my favorite out of the 4 Netflix characters
I came to the Daredevil table late & now I’m obsessed with it. I didn’t enjoy Iron Fist or Jessica Jones anywhere near as much when they came out & skipped Luke Cage completely.
I don’t usually watch TV show or movies with intent to analyze them. I get the themes subconsciously but don’t think about them deeply. So I enjoy channels like this that explore those themes running under the main storyline. Usually, I’m like “oh, yeah! I can see that!” or “whoa, didn’t think of that at all.”
So thanks for the effort you put into this!
This is the best analysis channel on TH-cam. Every video is perfect. Thank you so much.
