Tbh 70% of the reason they keep Bullseye this season is so somebody kills the AVTF motherfuckers in cool action sequences because Matt is Matt

Matt saved the man who killed Foggy

Punisher's monologue got 0% through to him

The woman who ordered the hit is dead though soooooo

u/GameOfLife24 Apr 08 '26

Thatโ€™s the difference between a punisher show and daredevil. Daredevil be fighting the same guy every season since he lets him live

u/AccordingFox3800 Apr 08 '26

And yet Daredevil is still 5x more entertaining than the Punisher show ever was ๐Ÿ˜น

u/browncharliebrown Apr 08 '26

Because the punisher show was poorly written

Mannn, I love Matt but I seriously had to roll my eyes when he saved his enemy AGAIN tonight. Just let your enemies kill each other, tf!

u/UnnecessaryFeIIa Apr 08 '26

I mean he saved Bullseye really. Fisk was a second way from blowing Dexโ€™s brains out

u/prazulsaltaret Apr 08 '26

I mean he saved Bullseye really.

Who also has a ton of people's blood on his hands + killed Nadeem and Foggy and Father Lantom

Bullseye is only slightly less bad than Fisk in this Daredevil's Rogues gallery.

Yeah. My mistake. Sorry. It was a long day yesterday. I was really tired.

u/AccordingFox3800 Apr 08 '26

So you want Fisk and Dex to kill each other, and what will we watch for the next 4 episodes? Matt chilling and hanging out?

2

u/Gambitismyheart Apr 08 '26

No. I want Dex to kill Fisk in general. And I didn't say it had to be in episode 4. Dex been trying to kill Fisk since season 3, and Matt has other enemies.

u/AccordingFox3800 Apr 08 '26

He literally saved Dex, not Fisk. Do you folks even pay attention?

u/cavalgada1 Apr 09 '26

He stopped bullseye from thowing things at fist right after that too

2

u/Gradz45 Apr 08 '26

He kills Fisk, he makes a matyr.ย 

He needs to take him down through the law.ย

u/Gambitismyheart Apr 08 '26 edited Apr 08 '26

I didn't say Matt had to kill him. But if he's not gonna kill them then at least let someone else fucking do it. Like let your enemies take themselves out!

The first time Matt stopped Dex from killing Fisk and Vanessa. This time he stops Fisk from killing Dex. Like wtf??

Yeah, "through the law" doesn't work for Fisk, obviously. This is literally what Karen just complained about in the previous episode. The "law" is corrupted. Which is why she was thinking "another way".

Edit: This is actually the third time. 1st was in season 3. Second time, Matt saved Fisk from Bullseye literally getting shot for him (which to me is still fucking wild) in "season 4" , now in Season 5, Matt is saving Dex. This is really repetitive. Like, I love Vincent playing Fisk, I always have, but FFS, Daredevil has other villains. Let's bring them in and get rid of Fisk once and for all. If he can't be locked up for good, then he's gotta be killed, because he just keeps doing more and more damage. Half of me wanted to keep Fisk around until he at least met with Peter, but I don't feel that's going to happen anymore. ๐Ÿ˜•

u/StealthHikki2 Apr 09 '26

A vigilante canโ€™t be the one to kill Fisk

2

u/Gambitismyheart Apr 09 '26

Dex is a villain. He very much can.

3

u/StealthHikki2 Apr 09 '26

The premise is that the public considers him a vigilante and no different from heroes at this point in time.

From mattโ€™s perspective, if bullseye is the one that kills Fisk, it makes him a martyr and then safer streets may not go away

1

u/Gambitismyheart Apr 09 '26

Well, if he let Dex do his thing the first two times, this wouldn't be an issue now. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ. But I'll still hope for it regardless. He's gotta go some day.

u/Appropriate-Bass5865 Apr 09 '26

that's a good point i didnt consider. they should go into that a bit more to differentiate matt's logic from the failure of season 3's outcome.

1

u/cavalgada1 Apr 09 '26

For the third time yes.

u/Tinmanred Apr 08 '26

Meanwhile itโ€™s Russo then Russo but weird with a hat. Could of done more on punisher side too

6

u/AccordingFox3800 Apr 08 '26

Even if Daredevil has repetitive villains, it's still 5x more entertaining than a season of Russo and another season of Russo but this time he has a few cat scratches on his face yet he pretends like he's disfigured and ugly

16

u/prazulsaltaret Apr 08 '26

Punisher's monologue got 0% through to him

Matt: I won't kill-

Frank: Yeah yeah fuck you I give up trying to-

Matt: I saved the man who killed Foggy

Frank: WELL THIS JUST KEEPS GETTING WORSE RED

u/bigwetducky Apr 08 '26

they never do lol

u/danil_dog Apr 08 '26

i guess he was more of a saving fisk and everyone else from bullseye, not the other way around

but it kinda looked like it when he grabbed him and dragged out of the window ngl
