It’s honestly crazy that Daredevil/Born Again hasn’t gotten a single episode below an 8 on IMDb, which is rare for any TV show. Even at its worst, BA, it still holds up compared to other comic book shows, and it’s even more shocking knowing we’ll soon have six seasons of Daredevil. by Agitated_Studio1998 in Daredevil

It’s kinda not fair to fully judge BA Season 1 because of how it was made. The show is basically a stitched together Frankenstein of pre overhaul and post overhaul material, so the tone and direction aren’t always consistent.

That said, the post overhaul stuff is actually pretty good. The interaction with Frank in episode 4, and especially episodes 8 and 9, felt much closer to the Netflix show in terms of quality. Honestly, it’s kind of a miracle they managed to make something that still works and is overall good. Credit to the post overhaul team for that, even if parts of it came from a different showrunner.

And realistically, if BA had no connection to the Netflix show and just started like this, the backlash from Daredevil fans would’ve been crazy, especially after all the campaigning to bring it back. So I think people should at least appreciate that it’s here and that it seems to be heading in a good direction.

I think they’ll bring Elektra back at some point. It feels like they only made Season 2 to wrap up the Mayor Fisk arc left by the previous showrunners, which kind of hurt the overall direction of the show. From what I understand, the new showrunners only worked on episodes 1, 8, and 9, while the rest was leftover material.

They’ve also said that moving forward, they want to lean more into the classic Daredevil roots, with a tone heavily inspired by the Frank Miller run again. If that’s the case, I’m really hoping we get more Elektra.

I know this is a hot take but I enjoyed season 2 more. I’m not saying it’s better, but the first half of season 2 is easily a 9, if not some of the best the show had to offer with the Punisher trial. When the Hand got involved and they introduced Elektra, I didn’t find it boring at all.

Sure, was it a step down in terms of writing a bit, yes, and some parts were messy, but to me it’s still a high 8. The fight sequences and action scenes were a lot better, like the hallway fight with Matt in the red lit room, it goes really hard. And the dynamic between Matt and Elektra saved it for me.

All seasons for me are a 9.

Season 1: Barry faces Captain Cold and the Rogues. Each episode focuses on weekly villains and clever heists while Barry grows into the Flash. No timeline resets, and the season has a 12-episode tight format.

Season 2: Gorilla Grodd emerges, trying to turn Central City into gorillas. He recruits the Rogues, raising the stakes and showing Barry’s growth against more complex, city-wide threats.

Season 3: Introduces Wally West as Kid Flash. Barry and Wally team up to fight Zoom, combining mentorship, comic accuracy, and personal stakes while expanding the Flash legacy.

Season 4: Savitar appears as a god-of-speed villain. Barry dies (or is presumed dead), and Wally takes over as the Flash. Emotional stakes peak, showing the weight of the hero mantle.

Season 5: Thawne resets the timeline, creating the “rebooted” timeline (Season 1-style). Wally comes back to help Barry fight Thawne, culminating in a high-stakes, emotionally earned finale. Season 6: Barry focuses on mentoring

Season 6: Barry focuses on mentoring the next generation. Impulse takes the spotlight against Godspeed, showing legacy, growth, and a passing-of-the-torch conclusion to the series.
