In almost every way I love this elaboration of the Daredevil story, but it seems pointlessly and entirely unnecessarily violent and bloody. I've watched 3 hour war movies in which thousands of characters die that show less stage blood on-screen than this series seems to relish showing in a single episode.

I realize some violence and blood is necessary to convince viewers that most of these people, even Murdock himself, are not nice people, but for me, the quarts of dripping stage blood adds nothing to the story and generate a level of physical revulsion that I have to force myself to get past before I can watch the next episode.

In the end I suspect I will not be able to continue enjoying the story of this dark hero, because the producers have decided to continue adding pools of blood and 15 seconds of additional violence to virtually every fight scene.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think so.
