where as in the first season at least Foggy was charming and added some comic relief
Karen was arguably the main character of season 2 and pretty great.

She's the one who actually does the leg work to figure things out and is very likeable while Daredevil fights boring ninjas.

It saved the Daredevil part of the season but the best part was always the Punisher half and Karen was the lynch pin of that. She was the one who uncovered everything and she was the one through which the audience related to him.

Hells yes Arrow season 2 is ****ing amazing. Deathstroke is great and the series took itself to the next level. When Arrow was in it's first two seasons it was hands down my favorite series on television. I've only seen up to halfway through season 3 and it didn't seem like it was building on that so much as capitulating to the shipping demands of the fanbase. I don't know anything about how the rest of the series is viewed but the dip in quality of season 3 just felt like jumping the shark from which a series doesn't recover.

they go at great lengths to set up Bullseye as believable and it's a lot of fun though still it's a goofy villain
Yeah, there are good parts.
And then there are like a hundred long-ass scenes of him sitting around in his ****ing church exchanging the same boring platitudes with priestguy/nungal.
And of course a whole episode centered on Karen's backstory. Because we clearly needed that.

I'm halfway through the Bundy Tapes and it's really well made. I'm too used to documentaries trading provocative content for quality, glad that this one aims for both.

Also lol @ the judge decrying the loss of humanity that Bundy wrought...because he didn't become a lawyer. That's so America.

Honestly I liked the scenes with Matt talking to the nun. But then I like women telling me I'm an idiot.

About to start season 2 of The Punisher tonight. I finished off S1 Eps 9-13 yesterday when I got home from work and had a free day with absolutely nothing to do but a little laundry. Got dang did it get good.

Spoiler for don spoilit:
Ep 13 was a bit lame tho. 12 was ****ing brutal and probably the best of the series so far.

I like the whole season actually but I have a hard on for comic book shows that surpasses my love of comic book movies and makes me biased. That episode where he first dons the skull and takes the SAW to that special forces unit who invade his shed is indeed amazing, no?
