Ssss...it's tough, that second half kinda drags it down a little. First half of Luke Cage with Cottonmouth, number 3. But you gotta rate the whole show.
I’m working through punisher now. Skipped most of iron fist because the first few hours were dull. And if I regretted that a little, then watching defenders made me regret it less.
Ah, fuck it. 1. Punisher 2. Daredevil season 2 3. Luke Cage 4. Daredevil season 1 5. Jessica Jones season 1 6. Jessica Jones season 2 7. Defenders 8. Iron Fist
Between Defenders and Iron Fist. Agent Carter between Shield and Iron Fist. Inhumans dead last after Iron Fist.
If I had the reins, I'd cancel Shield, replace it with a Ghost Rider show, introduce Blade in Ghost Rider, and spin him off into his own show. Then introduce all the other supernatural/monster characters in those shows, and do a big Avengers/Defenders miniseries of those guys.
Agent Carter ((particularly Season 1, is better than SHIELD, and Shield, after Season One, is better than a bottom of the list show IMO - last season was the best yet. Or, to be more specific: Iron Fist was dull, Inhumans was unwatchable - everything else, even if it's near the bottom of the list, is quality shit.
That said it's true that SHIELD seems to be running out of gas. The Ghost Rider arc, and the Framework/ADA arc were both excellent but it's hard to see how this particular group finds such a groove again - but then i was so NOT expecting the Ghost Rider thing to work at all. This year, the future story was hit and miss but Enoch was SUCH a great character, huge mistake to kill him off, and the bad guys were pretty good. What I would prefer, if the show and ABC could sustain it, would be some fresh faces (Enoch would have been great, but possibly too much of a solution to every problem) Mac and YoYo are tired, the Fitz/Simmons romance has peaked, but I'd still watch Colson/May/Daisy faithfully with some new blood alongside.
Agents Of Shield is renewed for season 6. Cheer or groan as you feel appropriate, I refuse to express an opinion, just dropping the scoop.
Just finished Iron Fist season 2. MUCH better! They made it about the martial arts, not fucking board meetings! ...still not in Season 2 Daredevil or Punisher territory, but pretty damned good. I'd say....better than Luke Cage season 2.
The Disney streaming service is developing spinoff shows for Loki, and Scarlet Witch. And yes, they will be live-action, and played by their MCU actors. http://www.darkhorizons.com/disney-plans-loki-scarlet-witch-tv-series/
Hmm, so is the Loki one set pre-Infinity War or tacit admission that he'll be back somehow post-Avengers 4?
They could do the rebirth storyline the comics did for Loki post-CW; Kieron Gillen's run was excellent. It would also include the MCU actor without having him there every week. Not over the moon with the Scarlet Witch one. Not the best actor in the bunch, and the version of the character is only mildly interesting, especially without the Vision.
