Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron FIst, Jessica Jones, the PUnisher, etc...
Sorry if this was posted before. I really enjoyed those shows and was so shell shocked when they all basically got canned at the same time. Especially the Punisher and Iron Fist. I am in the minority with those because they were most people's least favorites but I was most hooked on those two especially in the first season of those.

Did you watch the combo show too, the defenders? Includes all of them except the punisher
They all had great first seasons. Dd and IF had better second seasons. Rest got worse, even Dd s3. Still really annoyed that there will be no continuation from that awesome cliffhanger at the end of IF season 2

Still really annoyed that there will be no continuation from that awesome cliffhanger at the end of IF season 2 Yeah I watched Defenders. While I enjoyed it, I felt it did not deliver the way I expected. Reading a lot of the fans reviews I think I am not alone there. The thing with me is that these are generally not my style of shows as far as the super dark tone of them. My style is more like the arrowverse shows where they find that balance of seriousness and mix it in with good lighthearted banter between the characters. I'm not saying Arrowverse is better or worse than these MCU shows. I just mean the tone of them. That said I did get hooked on these shows. Luke Cage I struggled with at certain points of the series, but overall I thought it was good. But that Punisher character I just found so fascinating and he was so badass

Dont know about Black Lightning or Batwoman though, only saw the pilot of the latter

Dont know about Black Lightning or Batwoman though, only saw the pilot of the latter You are right that the content of Arrow could be considered dark, but not like a depressing kind of dark if you get my drift. And the funnny thing is that the MCU movies are the complete opposite in tone. The kind of dark I like is more towards a star trek DS9 kind of dark. Where it is very serious and is about war and very dark things, but you don't think of it as all doom and gloom because they balance it so well with the lightheartedness of it all if that makes sense.

I liked them. Didnt love them. I would have no problem with the characters being recast and rebooted to bring them into the MCU. One exception. D'Onofrio can stay as Kingpin. Just a new itteration of it.

I only tried Daredevil, and I thought it was a cheap looking Batman Begins rip off.

I also only tried Daredevil. Thought it was way overrated. Season one was okay, but looked extremely low budget with lots of filler subplots to pad the episodes and too much gratuitous violence. Season two was a big mess of ideas. Never saw season three but of course Netflix cancelled it because streaming service shows can’t afford to exceed 3 seasons. LOL. All the more reason never to watch them.

The disappointing part was when I was in the middle of these shows I find out that the whole series was scrapped so that was a buzz kill. But I just wanted to watch whatever marvel was out there. Except Inhumans. I never watched that one. I like Agent Carter especially season 1. And of course Sheild was really good

I've watched Seasons 1 & 2 of Daredevil, Season 1 of Jessica Jones and Season 1 of Iron Fist. I haven't watched Season 1 of Luke Cage, though. It looks unlikely that any of the other seasons of the shows will ever be released here on DVD/Blu-ray (much to my annoyance). Season 1 of Jessica Jones was my favourite.

OH sorry I thought they were all still available on Netflix. My favorite seasons is always different from everybody else's it seems

If there's anything I want to watch that's not on free-to-air TV here, I just wait for it to be released on DVD/Blu-ray and then get it (usually when there's a sale on and they're cheaper).

I hope you are able to get it eventually.
