First of all, great series. I've been a big fan of the Marvel Netflix series, but I guess that's not a surprise to many. However I'm not here to praise how great the show is---that's up for you to decide, plus I'll bet most of you are fed up with the unending positive reviews anyways---but rather to give a short critique on the quite misleading review here on IMDb regarding the dialogue and social norms represented in this show.

To the current top review who claims that this show is tainted with a "SJW" language, let me put this out for you: There is NOTHING---and I repeat NOTHING---SJW about this show!!!!! The term "SJW" has been used so extensively in these past couple of years that people simply use it as a substitute for another term without fully understanding what a "SJW" really stands for.

Do you really think---and I mean THINK ABOUT IT---that a show aestheticizing brutal violence, and portraying male dominance + excessive masculinity and heterosexual relationships, is trying to enforce SJW values?? Remember, SJWs are trying to subvert the dominant norms and values of ordinary life, and it's quite clear that this show only reinforces those dominant views of life. So to those afraid that they'll be treated with specific scenes or dialogue that will conflict with conventional values, don't be, as they are pretty much nonexistent in this show. Sure you might think that the female character Madani is annoying because she's impudent, but this is merely a typical trope (cliche) used in TV shows and movies since classical Hollywood. So no, I don't think that this show is trying to "brainwash" new generations. I also don't believe that this show is trying to politically correct in any way. If anything, I will commend this show for having a very accurate depiction on reality and not twisting it.

The Punisher is overall a very gritty show that emphasizes on brutal realistic violence more than in Daredevil. I'm not here to criticize that, I'm 19 and I honestly love to watch some intense gory fight scenes every now and then, but this is just a warning to younger audiences that might be watching this (most reviews never point this out, so I felt the need to point this out).

P.S. This review reflects on my experience with ALL the episodes. I don't believe it's fair when people rate the entire show based on the first one or two episodes. There's a separate IMDb page for each episode for that.
