Season 2 dropped today.

Decent first episode.

Getting terrible reviews. Not surprised at all. Aside from Jessica Jones I'd call all the other Marvel Netflix shows pretty mediocre at best and some of them downright awful.


Easy pass just like Iron Fist.

It was fine. Same formula and issue with all these shows. There's probably 7 episodes worth of material stretched out over 13 episodes.

Having Luke and Bushmaster fight 6 times kind of lessens the impact as well.

Just for a baseline, did you think season 1 of Luke Cage was good? Do you think season 2 is better/worse than season 1?

Luke Cage is just boring. He's invisible. During the Defenders the question is why did he even need anyone else to help him? He could have beaten the entire Hand alone. The rest of the team slowed him down because he had to take the bullets aimed at them.

Season 1 was okay.

Season 2 is on the same level/maybe a bit better just for the villains being better.

Yeah if you didn't like season 1 you most likely won't like this season.

I will say the Iron Fist-Power Man team-up episode was pretty good.

Season 1 was good with the Cottonmouth character; it lost some steam once he disappeared.

Yes.

Diamondback sucked.

The 3 villains this season are very good. Well 2 and a half.

And Thomas Jones as Comanche has a much bigger presence than he did in season 1.

If it was a 7 episode season I think it would've been great.
