Its been great. The story is finally moving.
Love this series. Just started S3 myself. To me it’s every bit as good as Breaking Bad.

Fear the Walking Dead: S4 - 8.5/10

Morgan Jones moving over from TWD, the introduction of several new likable characters, the deaths of several annoying characters and a tighter focus on survival has invigorated what was just a mediocre series up until this point. With S4 Fear has even surpassed the last few seasons of TWD in terms of structure and storytelling. You get the feeling no character is sacred here either and could be killed off at any time, which significantly raises the stakes. A great jumping on point for new viewers and a welcome shift for those like myself that stuck it out.

Luke Cage - Season 1

The Harlem setting and excellent soundtrack make this my favorite of all the Marvel-Netflix series so far. 9/10

I agree with that assessment and rating.

Wow dude, good review. I only watched the first season but may go back to it now after your review.

Do you think I need to watch S2 and S3 first?

Not at all necessary. S2 was just plain bad. On par with S1. While there are some improvements made in S3 it’s definitely not needed to jump right into S4 which really is a soft reboot of sorts.

Can’t speak for ParisDean but I found Cage S1 and DD S2 to be pretty much on par with one another. Easily the best of the Netflix Marvel series. I can’t argue with your point on the 2nd villain in Cage. DD had a few pacing issues so in the end they balance out for me with a slight edge going to Cage simply due to the fresh look and feel. The soundtrack alone was next level.

I liked Daredevil season one more than season two. But my rating differences between all of the early Marvel-Netflix seasons are minuscule. Rounded off to nearest whole numbers, Daredevil seasons 1 & 2, Jessica Jones season 1 and Luke Cage season 1 are all 9/10.

Next on my watch list is Iron Fist season 1. I most likely won't rate it a 9/10.
