Can’t wait.

First season was amazing. Hoping it’s as good.

Highly PUMPED for this too! I loved the first season and actually thought he was better in DD.

First episode was very good, although a bit slow. Can't wait to see where they take things this season.

Slow? Were we watching the same show?

Jingle.son and I caught the first two last night. Gonna try to get another two tonight. Excellent start.

Podaar · « **Reply #10 on:** January 19, 2019, 07:23:11 AM »

I repeatedly fell asleep during the third episode.

Not that there's anything wrong with the show. I was just really sleepy.

Watched the first three episodes. Really liking it, although ‘Rachel’ is getting on my nerves.

I actually really dig her character. She's annoying, yeah, but how many 16ish year old degenerate scoundrel girls aren't. The chemistry between her and frank just gets better and better. I'm on either ep6 or 7 now, thoroughly enjoying the series. Not as good as the first season, but better than a good deal of the Marvel Netflix output. Plus Madani is just so frikkin hot.

Podaar · « **Reply #14 on:** January 20, 2019, 07:00:57 AM »

We're up to episode seven as well.

It's good, entertaining television with spots of great acting, but it feels like they are stretching. It's like they only had enough story for 10 episodes and are finding ways to stretch scenes out. I wish I could come up with specifics, and it's not all the time, but I noticed a few times that I felt anxious to have them move along because the scene had overstayed it's welcome.

Anyway. Not as good as season one, but damned good anyway.

"Rachel", or whatever, is awesome. Frank needs people like her around, I think.

Yup, she is. It's also a bit disturbing how much Billy's therapist is similar to Dinah.

Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed.

But... I'm not so gaga on Madani. She's ok.

lonestar · « **Reply #16 on:** January 20, 2019, 11:14:55 AM »

Just finished e10, holy shit

Day off, and I know where my priorities lie, so I'll be finished in a few hours

E12 done, I have no fucking clue how they're gonna wrap this up in 57 minutes, but goddamn is it good. Brb...

Ok finished...they seemed to wrap everything up pretty well, all the peeps got what they deserved. I'll dig in more as soon as you slackers catch up.

I was hoping the laugh would indicate I don't 'hate' her character......she's just annoying

I'm only on Ep. 3 but even then in the Police Station she stole the keys with the intention of freeing Frank....so I can see that they're going to become closer and closer. It's the constant deception and schemes thus far with her that are what has bothered me about her.

I'll know soon enough I guess....but something about that whole scenario seemed 'off' anyway. From the similarity to the way that Therapist would look at Billy and was noticeably 'in' to him. Intentionally, like she was using her likeness to Madani to get closer to him.

Five episodes in so far and enjoying it. My god, the action/violence in this show is probably unparalled as far as TV goes. I've already audibly laughed in glee at a couple spots

Yeah, they take gore to the next level. There are one or two moments in the last few episodes that made me audibly cringe.

Does it outdo Fisk bashing brains and skull with the car door from DD S1? That (imo) is the most gruesome thing Marvel/Netflix has done.

I've only watched the first episode of this season, but I don't think they can top that

Shooters1221 · « **Reply #22 on:** January 20, 2019, 07:24:50 PM »

Just finished season 2. I loved it!! Wasn’t quite sure how it would go in the last 3 episodes but I went away with a sense of fulfillment...no spoilers from me

Adami · « **Reply #23 on:** January 20, 2019, 07:34:11 PM »

Spoilers through the 3rd episode.....

Man....I hate that therapist cliche. Especially as a therapist myself. That female, cold, smug therapist that lets the prisoner go because they either love him or believe so strongly in him. UGH. Especially when they showed NO signs of Billy being charming with her in anyway.

Also Billy's escape? There was a god damn lock down alert! Police walked directly past a guy IN A GOD DAMN PSYCHO LOOKING MASK and just ran right past him. SERIOUSLY?!?!

Loving the Frank stuff. But the Billy stuff so far is annoying. Hope it improves since his character was great in season 1.

Was thinking the same thing on the escape.

Just finished ep. 3, so yeah, I know what you're talking about. There's no way in real life a guy with that mask would get out in broad daylight during a hospital lock down. I think they just want the cops to look bad/dumb.

About the therapist, I want to believe there's more to her character, something we haven't seen yet that might change our view of her from the typical cliche thing. She has a very noticeable limp, I don't think they'd throw that at us if it wasn't important somehow. There's more depth to it.

Yea, I caught the limp too. I sure hope there's more to her than this. Either way, she's annoying at the moment. Though I'm more critical of TV/Movie therapists than most.

There's something in episode 5 that I think might be a contender.

The weight room scene? That was utterly brutal.

Yup. Knew it was going to be bad as soon as I realized there was going to be a fight there, but still...

That's the scene I was thinking of as well, some seriously horrific gore there.

Adami · « **Reply #32 on:** January 21, 2019, 10:27:17 AM »

On episode 5 now.

Actively cheered when Turk showed up. Love that such an odd character is shared between (almost) all of the seasons of the shows. Hope he shows up in JJ3.

Adami · « **Reply #33 on:** January 21, 2019, 01:25:02 PM »

Also Mahoney shows up and gives the therapist a subpoena for her files.

Doesn't work that way. We don't give files for a subpoena.

Also, worst therapist ever.

lonestar · « **Reply #34 on:** January 21, 2019, 03:53:28 PM »

Yeah but as a stereotypical therapist she's perfect.
