After seeing Spider-Man: NWH I had the sudden urge to see Daredevil again and this show has aged incredibly well. Seeing how the current MCU shows handle themselves versus the Marvel Netflix shows is truly a night and day difference. There is a strange sense of Darkness/Maturity that the Disney+ shows lack that I never thought of until rewatching Daredevil, the same goes for Jessica Jones.
As with anything in the MCU, it remains connected directly referencing MCU events but being somewhat disconnected to the larger universe to its benefit.
Its 1st season is a binge-worthy look at the streets of New York's Hells kitchen and Vincent D'Onofrio's infamous portrayal of Kingpin, showing his iron grip on the city from the shadows while dealing with the rise of Daredevil himself. The second season while weaker than the others has its bright spots such as Jon Bernthal's The Punisher. A man who literally came back from the dead to exact vengeance on those who wronged him and his family, while cleaning up Hell's kitchen in his own way. Jon Bernthal is The Punisher and like D'Onofrio's Kingpin, I highly doubt he can ever be replaced. Season 2 also introduces Elektra, Daredevils old love interest alongside the hand storyline which are by far the most forgettable aspects of this season. Season 3 is its strongest yet and my personal favorite showing what happens to a broken and beaten Daredevil and his contemplation of hanging up the name for good. His recovery both slow and painful shows his will to keep going especially with the decision of putting Kingpin away or in the ground for good eating away at his consciousness.
Overall it's a solid watch and among the best of MCU Tv with irreplaceably iconic actors at the top of their roles.
However one thing is for certain, there isn't an actor alive that can play Daredevil better than Charlie Cox.

Because he’s a really good lawyer.
