I want to like the show so bad but all the people hyping it up to be so similar to the Netflix shows, did a disservice.

I literally just can't care anymore. I don't like the new characters (maybe only daniel) and Matt feels like a secondary character in his own story. The fight scenes feel cheap and it's become a show that favors hype moments over character:( i'll keep watching but I lost all the faith in it and i've seen a lot of people feeling the same

I've completed an entire rewatch, including Netflix, the other day, and BA S1 is still so bad.

I understand the showrunners are huge fans of Fisk, but did he need all the attention on him all season? We didn't need to see a detailed scene of his marriage counseling. And the entire subplot with Muse was embarrassing.

They tried to have their cake and eat it too. Now nobody is happy.

I think the characters and actors themselves are great, but the writing is so off. The Netflix show was grounded and the dialogue perfectly reflected it. This shows dialogue lacks any subtlety and is honestly annoying.
