    the reason one of the FBI agents didn't just put a bullet in Fisk completely escapes me. If there were SO many agents/cops/etc under Fisk's thumb - all apparently against their wills, why didn't someone just shoot him in the head? At any time? Ever? No one even considered it? Fisk killed an agent's CHILD and she never thought that putting one between his eyes was an option? There were 10 agents in that room with him. If one pulled out his or her weapon and shot him dead, was there no way for the other 9 to come up with a plausible scenario to keep them all out of prison? Whatever happened after would HAVE to be better than continuing to fear for your and your family's lives day in and day out. This ginormous plot hole ruined much of this season for me. When all I could think was, "Shoot him now." "Just shoot him now." "How bout now?" "Now?" "What's stopping you now?"

    I can believe this. Why didn't the German people stop Hitler? It had to take a lot of man power to kill so many people. Yet it happened. I'm not a historian and not well versed in history either but I do wonder what it was that the people in Germany allowed such atrocities. I do know that there were failed attempts to kill him. So, yes Fisk taking over the FBI is somewhat believable and the fact that Fisk is a fictional character.

    Hopefully there's more to come with her character.

    Completely agree!

    are they ever gonna let Matt get laid?

    I laughed to hard at this! I thought Claire and Matt did but when I re-watched season 1 it looks like they didn't. I'm glad Karen and Matt didn't because I don't think they work. I don't see any connection other than friendship. And...well Electra is Electra. :P

    They should have left her unattached and weaving throughout all of the series.

    This so much! She's a great character. I didn't watch all of Luke Cage so.... in my mind she's still around. Yes yes she is.

    Glad the three friends are all back together. One thing I hate, though, is the thing with the eyes popping open like that. I knew it would happen, and was hoping they'd just keep his eyes closed, and let the realization that he would now be back, and stronger than ever, be what we were left with. 

    If you're talking about Dex then I believe it's to show the bullseye in his eye. Probably for the comic book fans.

    I don't care what she said, he's an ass for disowning her.

    I completely agree! She came to him and apologized but he still is not accepting her back. I have a child that is estranged and if he came to me I'd hug him and love him up.

     I. do. not. get. Daredevil. and. Electra.  Ugh.

    I always thought the point of Daredevil/Matt and Electra is that she brings out the devil side. Whenever he is with her he is so focused on her and what she brings to him that he doesn't seem to give a hoot about the good people and good reasons in his life. It is a Catholic idea that you have both good and evil in you. Which do you chose? 

    He seemed to get over her fairly quickly this season and I like to think it's because she isn't there making it easier for him to move on. 

    On the other hand I hated when she was brought back to life. That whole bit, I'm glad is over.

    Fisk selling the baying crowd on 'fake news' and redirecting their anger felt uncomfortably current, and made me realise - Fisk is the MCU's approximation of Donald Trump. A sleazy, New York real estate mogul, with designs on being more, and unknown depths to his criminal links and activities. 'I'm not your enemy. He's your enemy, and only I can save you.'

    Except Fisk is smart....¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  7. I was really hoping Dex would end Fisk but I guess the powers that be wanted to save Fisk and/or Dex for future programs. Killing Fisk would have changed Matt no doubt. I don't understand why Matt has this fixation on not killing someone who is clearly evil and has no remorse for the many killed and yet to be killed. I always wonder about all those maimed he leaves behind. If your considered brain dead are you redeemable?

    Did not care for the reveal that Maggie is Matt's mother. I don't care if it's faithful to the comic book story, it's corny and doesn't really make sense.

     

    I was very disappointed in this but I guess there was no other way to reveal she is his mother.  I was hoping for some redeemable reason. It's a pretty shitty thing to be in his life and not be in his life at the same time knowing how much he struggled without her. That is Daredevil, how redeemable is someone if at all?

    I couldn't stand the hallucination of Fisk, I hate that trope so much. It kept taking me out of the show. I really hope he was just having internal discussion and didn't actually think he was there or something. I was disappointed how short his reunion was with Foggy. There is no way Matt believes he (and Karen) would ever let this go. I hope that Foggy is able to somehow get through to Matt at least that he doesn't have to do this alone. I hope Foggy tells Karen the truth and it doesn't drag on much longer.

    Dex is creepy. I honestly thought it was like he went to a bar and "the girl" was going to be his drink. I didn't see the stalking thing coming.

     I hated this and fast forwarded. I also hated fast forwarding any part of this show. I was so looking forward to it. So far overall it's pretty solid for me but the ghost thing really didn't do it for me. Maybe Fisk is dead and it was a ghost haunting Matt. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    S'mores are THE WORST. I will brook no truck with that statement.

    First of all you're out in the woods around a campfire, which means you are surrounded by mosquitos and ticks and poison oak/ivy and bears and mountain lions and NO AIR CONDITIONING and NO RUNNING/HOT WATER. 

    Are you kidding me?

    Then inevitably your s'mores fall into the fire or the marshmallow starts burning or ends up partially burned and then tastes horrible*, it's always a cluster fuck.

    And even though you didn't ask, no I didn't enjoy my time in Boy Scouts all that much. What's that, we're gonna march up and down the C&O canal all weekend carrying 40 lb backpacks and camp out on extremely rocky terrain and I don't even get a merit badge out of it? SIGN ME UP!!!

    *I would say it tastes like ass, but I've never nor do I plan to ever eat anyone's ass so I shan't use that descriptor.

    I laughed so hard.....I don't like smores but if you'll make one for me I'd at least eat the chocolate. Would be a shame for it to go to waste.

    Matt says Mark is a cool guy.  Guess Matt doesn't know that Mark never wants to see him again lol 

    I just listened to one the interviews with Mark and it was hilarious! Mark really called out Maven for what they really are. I love Mark even more for this.

    I think credit should be given to the broadcast edits. My friends, who don't watch or follow the live feeds, think Christmas is a bad ass bitch who deserves to win for having her own mind. Um, okay....

    I don't usually read this live feed until Thursday. I'm so disgusted with these people and after Sunday's broadcast I don't care about spoilers. I want Cody as fan favorite because that will upset Paulie.  I would like insight from TPTB as to how this shitshow happened in the first place.

    I've already discussed Cody's belligerent use of of transphobic speech. He'd have been out in Charlottesville, I have no doubts.

    What happened in Charlottesville was horrible. He had a transphobic speech and so now he would join a group that advocates genocide?! I don't care for Cody but really?! That's quite a leap based on an opinion he has on transgender (probably just doesn't understand this fully). I listened to some of his talk and I didn't hear that he wanted all transgender people to be eliminated? Did I miss something? If so please cite this.
