So we defended Born Again season one when people said it was trying to be anti Trump and comment on current events, we said people were reading into it. However, at this point in the season it seems we were wrong.
Whether it is Kingpin’s red tie that he likes to wear, or the I.C.E-esque raids that are being sent in to look for Superheros in various parts of New York it is very clear they are trying to do social commentary. Daredevil is a fictional show set in a fictional world, no one wants Trump’s bad narratives in the show.
Moreover, whilst it is nice to see Jessica Jones back, we are big Krysten Ritter fans here,we wish she was given more to do. At the moment she is just there to provide sarcastic colour commentary.
Another point that is becoming increasingly clear is that this isn’t really a Daredevil show it is every other characters show and Daredevil is just sort of kind of there as well. They really are making Matt take a back seat throughout the whole of the season so far.
We won’t score this as we’ll wait for the whole season to be out for that, but at this mid season sort of point the second season doesn’t not look like it’s heading anywhere good.
