So I'm not going to post any spoilers here, but YIKES the fight scenes in this one are brutal. I expected that, but the first two beat downs in the bar left me actually feeling a little queasy. I like the story so far, but I have a feeling I'll be watching a good chunk of this season between my fingers. I expected as much, as last season was the same. I don't think I'll be able to binge this one as quickly as I thought!

LOL - totally with you. And yeah, it doesn't get any more pleasant. I do like that each series has it's own "style" that fits the characters. The fighting in Iron Fist is almost poetic sometimes - lots of flowing moves and fits the theme of the show. Daredevil has more brutal fighting and showcase's Matt's abilities, Jessica Jones "fighting" is barely that which fits her character and lack of training etc. But yeah, Punisher's fight scenes are "punishing". Fits his never back down style while still incorporating his Marine training etc.
Oh and Luke Cage also has fight scenes. LOL

LOL Oh I definitely agree with you about the different figting styles across the shows! This current season’s Punisher storyline is good, but it’s really tough to watch a character get beaten to an unrecognizable, bloody pulp! |

Agreed. I watched plenty of scenes through my fingers as well.
Didn't like season 2 quite as much as season 1 but still enjoyed. Enough twists and turns to keep it interesting and a few side characters that were fun to get to know ("fun" being a relative term in some cases - John is quite dark of course).

I'll be spending next weekend with some family I like and trying to avoid any remotely controversial conversations with others that I spend the rest of the year avoiding
