So have people watched it yet? What did you think?
Non-spoiler version: I enjoyed it a fair amount. It's very different to JJ and DD in some ways. (For starters, the acronym requires two different letters). Acting was good all around, with one or two minor exceptions.
Diamonback was a disapointment, to me, as the villian. He was reasonable, but probably too crazy. Shades was good but a bit weird. Cottonmouth I thought was very good.
Cage himself is kind of a boring hero - when your hero is invulnerable to harm, it (a) makes most of the fights pretty unexciting because of that, and (b) inevitably means you are going to introduce some bull***** mcguffin so you can re-add that tension. The fights were fun, and the ones where he has to protect people worked pretty well.
Overall, not as exciting moment to moment as JJ and DD but possibly a better scripted show overall.
I watched the first episode yesterday and I liked it. Probably I'll have finished the series in about a week, so reviews to follow.
Okay so I really liked this series, but it does have a similar slump to Jessica Jones in the later episodes.
Like, they could probably make a better series by cutting a few episodes from the series and re-cutting the plot a little?

Idk, I still had fun. When's season two?
