The trailer massively undersold this show. It's not a crappy rom com. It's a female led story with some great prospects. I'm excited for it to begin.
I absolutely love this tv series!! It's a mixture of stalking, hacking, cops, murder, mystery, and love. Everything you would want in a show with a fresh young adult cast. Love the episode names too as they are in tune with today's internet lingo. Must watch tv show imo.
It was very boring the first few episodes but then it became pretty decent. I would have watched a second season.
One of my favourite shows!
Awesome!!
Such a great, well-written and meaningful show. Didn't get ridiculously out of hand like Gossip Girl! Loved it!
Everyone should watch OTH. The story is amazing and the characters actually teach us about living and loving.
I miss you One Tree Hill!
Finished binge watching the series and wow, what a great series it was! Very true to the original tone of the comics with some great references to the MCU and Netflix Daredevil series. Can't wait to see more of Jess in the Defenders show and hopefully in future upcoming Marvel Netflix series!
David Tennant was on point as Kilgrave . The accident brought so much more life to the character
Marvel & Netflix make the perfect baby.
amazing show!!!!!! but kinda violent and deviant. for example in the first episode when hope kills her parents and laughs was creepy (lol' i was afraid of getting inside elevators) and the sex scences were kind of too x-rated. but this show is amazing and i really love the fact that all of the episodes were realised in one day.
That was one of the creepiest and scariest series I ever watched. But as a Marvel fan, I loved it all, how much it was true to the comics and the nuance in it. Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones was so great, she's a freaking good actress and represent JJ really well in its entirely. I don't think it was better than Daredevil but it was definitely on the same level. I love how every show from Marvel has its own atmosphere and tone - Agents of SHIELD is mostly fun with occasional dark moments, Daredevil is a drama with lot of good choreographed fight scenes and fun, compelight supporting characters and Jessica Jones is a dark psychological drama. I can't wait to watch Luke Cage and Iron Fist series.
David Tennant was on point as Kilgrave . The accident brought so much more life to the character
Amazing, but David Tennant as Kilgrave is kind of weird. Trish and Jessica have AMAZING chemistry, and the whole show is freaking amazing.
What the hell are you guys talking about? The show is great fun. It's not taking itself too seriously and it's poking fun at all the horror movie cliches. Good job Ryan Murphy. You've done it again!
It didn't made it into the comedy greats but Apartment 23 is one of those series that didn't go after the easy laughs, made you work for the reward, and was subtly hilarious and great. Such a shame that it didn't go beyond its second season.
better and better, is in my top 3 the best tv show!
Starts off pretty bad then all of a sudden you've been awake for 20 hours and binge watched the entire thing.
Persevere through those initial few bad episodes and you're in for a right treat.
finally something refreshing on tv! this show's the best new thing since Orange is The New Black.
Despite the negative reviews, this show is really good and has potential.
After watching the first 5 episodes:
I actually quite like it.This isn't typically the type of show I'd go for but so far it's pretty fun and the acting is surprisingly good.
The movie was great, definitely gonna try the show out. I'm curious!
This show basically only takes the base concept from the movie (drug makes you smart). All the themes from the movie (dangers of addiction, intelligence vs knowing things, ect) are basically gone to make way for what the show is.
This show is "What if J.D. from Scrubs was in a police procedural and was also The Mentalist half the time". Any worries about getting more of the drug is gone, they never really show the withdrawal he must go through each day, there are no long term damages from taking the drug. The show is really just another goofy genius fights crime show. Which is fine? It is still pretty good.
Not the movie, still fun-ish.
half of the people that are in the header are dead or gone please change thank u
I laugh every time is see this show. And I am watching it again for the (I lost the count) time. You become a part of that friends, you are one of them and you feel what they feel, quoting what they're saying. You even wish things went differently every time that something happens between Ross and Rachel. And by all that, every single time I laugh like an idiot at every episode. You got to love this series, forever.
The best show ever!!!!!!!!! ♥
I was hyped for this show massively, and now that it has arrived I cannot say I am disappointed.
The small touches of Matt showing that he is blind are great, fumbling for his keys throughout the scenes. Although they are not big key moments it shows that they paid attention when producing this series.
The actors play the characters well, and they really shine in their roles. They work well together as a cast and the way in which they collide.
The fight scenes are some of my favourites I have seen throughout a TV series and are done really well, they take into consideration that he is blind, but really engage with the user.
Overall I'm happy with this series and wish to see more. It's not over the top, it is pinned together well. 9/10 on my part.
What a phenomenal show! Being a Marvel production, I fully expected something of quality, but my expectations were blown entirely out of the water. Daredevil has easily taken its place among my favorite shows currently on air and far surpasses the current lineup of comic book-based television properties (including Marvel's own Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.).
The cast is great. Charlie Cox brings emotional weight to Matt Murdock and an intimidating presence to his vigilante alter ego. Supporting players Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, and Rosario Dawson, all make their respective roles feel critical, never distracting or annoying. But it's Vincent D'Onofrio that really steals the spotlight as Wilson Fisk, bringing to life a villain who is not only vicious and truly terrifying, but also heartbreakingly pitiful.
Daredevil's writing separates it from the current crop of superhero television. The progression of the plot is well organized and dialog rarely (if ever) crosses that line into comic book corniness. You really get the sense that the show runners had a clear vision for where they wanted this freshman season to go, while still laying groundwork for future seasons. Never does it feel like you're just being strung along for bigger and better things to come next season. And the show doesn't constantly try to remind you of the broader Marvel Cinematic Universe, as any references to it are (usually) subtle.
But perhaps Daredevil's greatest strength is its cinematography. Fight sequences are expertly choreographed and coherent (not to mention brutally gritty), even rivaling those of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The production value is top notch, probably thanks to the refreshingly limited reliance on CGI. But what impressed me the most was the brave willingness to let the camera linger or even meander occasionally. Ending episode 2 with a minutes-long single take fight sequence had me speechless, and is a testament to the level of quality brought to the show.
Daredevil is a strong addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I think Marvel's partnership with Netflix could prove to be one of their best decisions regarding their television properties and I look forward to future shows like A.K.A. Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.
So, there's good news and bad news about season one of DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Bad news first: the early episodes are pretty bad. There are too many characters to get a feel for any of them right off the bat. Also, the villain, Vandal Savage, comes across pretty much as a complete wuss. Sure, he's got some kind of immortality thing going on, but with a ship full of super-people it should be a cakewalk to take him out. All the reasoning behind why this doesn't happen requires some major hand-waving.
Good news: it gets a lot better, around halfway through. Suffering through that poor early stuff gives time to introduce each character, and their various struggles/relationships/etc start to be more meaningful. Savage is still kinda weak as the major big-bad, but he gets help in a way that makes at least a little bit of sense. The last 2-3 episodes are really pretty good.
Sadly, that's a lot of time spent to get to the good stuff. If you're a DC comics fan, or watch Flash/Arrow, you'll probably enjoy Legends of Tomorrow just to see what they've done with the characters. If not, this one might not be for you.
