If episodes 1-4 (what I've seen) were all considerably shorter the overall quality of the show would skyrocket, since what works really, really works. But there's a lot of starring at screen as nothing's happening.

I had the exact same feeling about Better call Saul. Still haven't seen Daredevil.

I also did not expect to have Wilson Fisk back this soon or in this big a role.

I liked this season overall, but I wonder if they perhaps overdid things, by bringing so many new characters and factions into play.

I'm only on episode 4 or something, of season 1. Other than some cool fights, I'm not really looking forward to watching the rest. But I want to see Kingpin and eventually Punisher.

Few episodes into the new season.

The drama remains really inconsistent, like season 1. At times it's well-done, and matches the brutal violence and dark theme. There are other times when it feels like a weekday afternoon soap opera. I think it's because the whole dynamic between Murdoch, Foggy, and Karen feels really amateurish in comparison to everything else. It's almost too lighthearted when the 3 of them are on screen together. Especially this almost childish "will they/won't they" thing between Murdoch and Karen, which comes across as hamfisted more than anything.

Everything else is pretty great though.

Bernthal is a great addition and I'm looking forward to the inevitable Punisher (prequel?) series.

This.

They all but officially announced Punisher. I expect the spinoff announcement will come when Season 3 is officially renewed (though it probably won't be for 2017 because I think Defenders will come right after Iron Fist).

In the finale they even

This season is fucking amazing.
Deborah Ann Woll is great this time.
