Daredevil Season 3

Daredevil Season 3 uses the length of the season better than a lot of the other Marvel Netflix series (not least Daredevil S2) with several slow burn plots which pretty much all dovetail together rather than having a side plot taking up a chunk of the middle. I could have lost the imaginary conversations, but hey. It also managed to come back from S2 and The Defenders and go from Magic Ninja Apocalypse back to a straight-up crime story with one weird power on each side. And there was a moment that made me gasp.

The death of Julie. (Though the payoff was gruesomely hilarious, which dented it a bit.)

I do think, and this is my biases showing, that turning an FBI detail is more of a stretch than having corrupt city officials and police in play.

(I also don’t believe that a swanky hotel would let a guy in a manky army jacket get as far as Matt did while checking the place out, but never mind.)

Feels like an ending.

And the last scene before the credits is oddly like the post-credits scene in the film version. Still no Evanescence though...
