I binge watched all the three seasons of Daredevil and completed the entire show in just 2 days. Now you may ask, "But how did you finish it in 2 days? Each season has 13 episodes each being at least 1 hour long, so you needed around 40 hours to watch it. And considering you have to sleep for 8 hours that's exactly 40 hours!" To which I reply, "That's right! I didn't even eat or drink or sleep to watch it." Just kidding. I watched it at 1.5x speed whenever the talking scenes used to come. But either way the point remains that I finished it in a couple of sittings because I liked it so much.

As a kid I had played the 2000 Spider-Man game. There was a brief cutscene where Daredevil was shown, so that was literally all I knew about Daredevil. There was nothing else that I knew about him. So anything that this show showed me about Daredevil, I completely trusted it with a blind eye. Often this is a very bad way of learning about any comicbook adaptation, since many times they make a bad adaptation like Ghost Rider or Fant4stic and we are left with no choice but to accept it. But this one is absolutely sick.

We are introduced to Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer who has trained himself into being a crime fighter. And he uses his skills to fight criminals. But unlike regular superheroes he doesn't have a superhero costume yet. He is only covering his face so that no one sees him. In the end of the 2nd episode of Season 1 we are shown how he single handedly fights an entire building of bad guys to save a child. It's one of the most realistic looking fight scenes from any superhero TV show. And Charlie Cox plays his role so well you can actually feel he's blind. In the end of season 1 he finally gets his costume, he fights Kingpin and gets him sent to jail.

Now the reason why Season 2 wasn't all that good (although I was hoping it to be better than Season 1 since now he had a costume and allies) was because now the shared universe began to get built. Shows like Punisher, Iron Fist, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones had to be introduced because of which Daredevil's content started falling. Now he was more into Elektra and Punisher instead of doing what he always did. His bestie began hating him for hiding his identity, his girl left him, but overall it wasn't a bad season. It just wasn't as good as the previous one.

Then in Season 3 it came back to its mark, now that Defenders was over. We could focus back on the titular hero. And this time he completely annihilates Kingpin. This series had the best conclusion. It's a good thing they knew exactly where to stop. And even after 7 years it has aged so well. Although it's nowhere in my top 5 favourite superhero shows anymore, I shall forever remember it to be the superhero show that changed all superhero shows.
