Welcome to the TV Soup podcast, home of drinkfive.com’s television review series. In this episode we open up a new chapter after wrapping up AMC's Better Call Saul and turn to the recently released Netflix series, Daredevil. We'll be going at it 2 episodes at a time (since binge watching is really the Netflix way), so please join us as we travel through this newest installment in the Marvel cinematic universe.
TV Soup Podcast: Daredevil, "Into the Ring" & "Cut Man" Review
As a sidenote, Jason and I have watched the majority of TV shows and movies set in the Marvel universe but we're not at all up-to-speed on the original comic books. We're looking at this show as completely separate from the previous Daredevil movie starring Ben Affleck and will not be looking at spoilers from the comic book, or earlier adaptations. Also, a second season of Daredevil has already been ordered by Netflix. That was quick!
Editor's Note: In the podcast we mention that Drew Goddard was going to be directing Sinister Six until it was shelved for a new Spiderman title. That's correct, but Sinister Six is based around a collection of supervillains from Spiderman, not Superman as I mentioned incorrectly.
Welcome to the TV Soup podcast, home of drinkfive.com’s television review series. In this episode we continue our discussion of Netflix's Daredevil with episodes 5 & 6, "World on Fire" and "Condemned". The Marvel Cinematic Universe has never felt darker and more violent than in this Netflix series, and we love it! Congrats, Netflix - certainly looking forward to the other Marvel properties that they are developing.

Just as a reminder, we're going through this series 2 episodes at a time so there are only a few weeks left before we move on to something else. We would highly recommend that you watch Daredevil in a similar fashion, since the whole thing plays out more like a movie than a TV series. Although there are a few gaffs that always come with a show based on a comic book, Daredevil has been put together pretty flawlessly in our professional opinions and we're looking forward to breaking down the rest of the episodes in the series leading up to the finale.
Welcome to the TV Soup podcast, home of drinkfive.com’s television review series. In this episode we continue our discussion of Netflix's Daredevil with episodes 7 & 8, "Stick" and "Shadows in the Glass". We finally meet the man who helped to shape young Matt Murdock after his father's death and we get some great background history on Wilson Fisk and why he is the way he is. Scary stuff. Daredevil is really shaping up to be something special as it winds down toward the season finale.

Welcome to the TV Soup podcast, home of drinkfive.com’s television review series. In this episode we continue our discussion of Netflix's Daredevil with episodes 9 & 10, "Speak of the Devil" and "Nelson v. Murdock". This show keeps reminding us that it is the darkest of the properties set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the excruciating fight scene that framed "Speak of the Devil" was one of the best in the series. How Matt was able to get home that night still breathing is a testament to his inner strength and willpower. The insight into Matt and Foggy's time spent as friends and colleagues in their formative years that we see in "Nelson v. Murdock" was much needed and adds to the impact of episode 10's ending. With only 3 episodes left, we can't wait to finish up the series!
