Finally watching this. Main problem I have is they don't make it clear that Matt lives in Hell's Kitchen aka The Kitchen
Can't believe they shot onsite at the actual Manhattanville Coffee in the first episode. Been there a few times, their Nitro Cold Brew is great.
Enjoyed getting a legal drama ep of the show. Saw the ending coming, but damn it's still a downer. And yeah, I'm assuming that person at the end is co-opting the Punisher aesthetic, and this forces Frank to come back at some point. They showed another cop in the courtroom with a tat, which suggests there's a network of dirty cops doing this.
Yeah, that was definitely a cop at the end. Also wondering what happens with the amulet now. And did they really only mention/show one of the two cops who Matt fucked up in episode 2?? Matt snapped a guys neck! He should be paralyzed at least! Great episode though
Ngl that was kind of lame. The episode 2 ending felt like a cliffhanger with serious implications and it fell flat. I was wondering about it all week
To be fair, Angela del Toro was mentioned as far back as Jessica Jones Season 1, so they could easily introduce her for realsies and give her the amulet like in the comics.
But it felt natural the way they wrapped up his arc anyways. It was clear that's what was going to happen imo and now Matt will have that weighing on him

Liked the episode but yeah it definitely seemed like he killed that cop and it was like how the fuck is he gonna get out of this. How was that guy's neck NOT broken lol
Goddamn that was brutal. And then they had to play the island sounds and the frog singing over the credits…
wasn't huge on this one tbh, I feel like if you take away the original actors it coulda been any episode of a generic Netflix legal drama. ending definitely made me sit up but it also felt like a little bit of a copout in hindsight reading about how this season was Frankenstein'd together out of what they originally shot and the new stuff, my expectations kinda went down significantly. I'm more just praying for a somewhat cohesive story than expecting the original Daredevil sauce now
It's interesting how this was almost an inverse of what happened in the comics. In the comics, White Tiger was retired and came out of retirement only to be caught by police appearing to have killed a cop during a robbery when the real perps fled. White Tiger's reasons for coming out of retirement were a huge part of the trial, and the trial went badly because they couldn't find the real criminals and White Tiger lost his temper on the stand. It ended tragically with him being convicted, attempting to flee, and getting shot by police on the courthouse steps. Afterwards, Daredevil found one of the real perps and convinced him to turn himself in, but it felt like a pyrrhic victory.
Really solid episode, that. No way that was Frank at the end, is it? Clearly a cop who loves him that Frank himself will deal with either in the show or in his special
