Yes. That is absolutely my perception of the guy. I don't know where all that limitless praise comes for him (or Bernthal, for that matter) but if that 'murdered family sends him on a killing spree'-stuff is all that is to him I guess I can very well do without a show all of his own.

Something about that title, though…

I rather meant meant that yeah, while Charlie Cox is pretty busy with Daredevil/Defenders for the next couple years what about the supporting cast? Are they getting a year off and then have to make room whenever it is they're needed again? I'm sure they have this figured out contractually already and other shows have…

You're right, of course. And it's not different from that at all. There just seems to be so much of this stuff planned at the moment that it seems a bit overwhelming to me. I'm sure the actors aren't complaining - as they shouldn't be - but it leaves me wondering what the big overall plans for these individual shows…

Gee, they really have these actors under contract for life, have they? Wonder if they get to do much besides that.

I just found that out myself. Hugh. Guess I got to check that one out, after all.

I couldn't get interested in either the Ninjas nor the Punisher stuff. Jon Bernthal just isn't an appealing actor to me and the character they had him play - for all its cult status - is really just a lunatic with a gun with not much more to him.

It's sooo worth it.

I don't think I ever saw her act in anything. Is she any good? Certainly an unexpected casting choice - and the whole Psycho adaption plan has me suspicious, anyway - but after the last two seasons which were both brilliant I'm inclined to trust in whatever Cuse and Ehrin are up to.

Yeah, he was the chef. I liked that character a lot, too and thought he and El made a sympathetic team.

This looks genuinly terrible and not just in a 'compared to the original' kind of way.

The word overrated seems so utterly overused - desperate,
in a way, because you just have to be the one odd person out who has to push against the crowd.

I know what you mean about some of the storylines that feel rushed. Others on the other hand have gone on way too long (Mereen and especially Arya those last two seasons). But with the overall lenght of the series I don't have that feeling since D&D have talked about that numer thirteen quite a number of times. I…

Riiiiiiiight…

This news is bad and it should feel bad.

Way ahead of ya.

Oh man. This is getting ridiculous. Look, I don't even know why I'm defending that character and charming was probably not the word I wanted to use at the time (I guess easy or natural was what I was looking for). He may be douchy to you - but rapy? Come on! I'd be a little more careful with heavy, accusatory…

To me there goes a long way between rolling my eyes at and actually hating somebody. Seems to me you're more sensitive to these things than me (or the other way around). Anyway, in my book this doesn't yet qualify so I wish he'd be torn to pieces.

For some reason my first thought was 'Jamie Lee Curtis?'. They don't even really look alike but it killed me those first minutes she was on that show in the airplane scene.

I agree. But season four of Orange is eligible for next year's Emmy's. So fingers crossed, she really nailed it in her episode.
