Comment on ‘Daredevil’ Hits Reset Button as Marvel Overhauls Its TV Business

otter@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

The show is Marvel’s first to feature a hero who already had a successful series on Netflix, running three seasons. But sources say that Corman and Ord crafted a legal procedural that did not resemble the Netflix version, known for its action and violence. Cox didn’t even show up in costume until the fourth episode. Marvel, after greenlighting the concept, found itself needing to rethink the original intention of the show.

Sounds like a good thing that it is being redone

I agree. To hell with a legal procedural. Nobody wants Law & Order: Daredevil Victims Unit. We want something akin to the Netflix series.

    I love that the guys are obviously Lenny Briscoe and Jack McCoy.

  No I’m good with a change. We already got as far as we could with the Netflix series really. A procedural sounds great.
  
  Star Trek pulled back and went to their old TOS format for Strange new worlds and it’s beautiful. The punisher can keep it’s dark tone, but Daredevil is a detective/lawyer and uses his Daredevil persona to be a detective and find out the truth of the cases he works, so the procedural format works for it.

Not being “redone,” instead the character is being “reborn.” The title lays it all out there. And as we all know being born once is no longer enough, and doesn’t create a compelling character, since a true compelling character is actually born twice! /s

Seriously though, the first season of Netflix daredevil is the best thing marvel tv has ever put out, and now the desire is to change one of the main features that made it work. They’re actively trying to kill marvel as a whole and you can’t convince me otherwise.
