I haven't watched the most recent episode but if something interesting doesn't happen soon, I'm out.
I watched it and you won't be missing much. I am willing to give all Marvel properties a chance but this one has been very boring in my opinion. Probably would have been better as a trimmed down 1 hour 40 minute movie when it is all said and done.

Also, as a quick aside, I really enjoy all of the actors on this. I think they have been let down by the writing though.

I don't think adult men are this show's target audience.

That's too bad. Oh well, short episodes... little investment.

People today are so sensitive. Where is all the rage at The Simpsons, Malcolm in the Middle, or Modern Family for portraying the wife as smart while the husband is dumb. Those are a few examples that immediately came into my head, but there are many, many more. It's not a new trope--The Simpsons is on it's 32nd season, I believe. It's certainly not limited to tv or only female-targeted media.

Such a stupid thing to cry about, but in this day and age of "I want what I want when I want it", the pushback shouldn't surprise me.

Yeah, I keep waiting for her to just destroy someone in a fight but no real fight yet, no suit, and no Daredevil yet. I actually just try and block the agenda out most of the time and not focus on it.

Why was the fight at the wedding so pathetic? I just don't understand the concept around the show.

I'd say for people who watch this much and not enjoy it, might be time to move on.

Is it what I wanted? Eh, but I accept they went a different route and either watch on its terms or skip.

im still watching it just in case something does happen i might find interesting and/or that effects the mcu as a whole. pretty hard to ignore the giant "F you" to men in general though each episode. i do enjoy jens sarcasm, i think her and i would get along just fine
