I love it so I'm watching everything. Doing a rewatch of the movies just now as well, which I like to do at least once a year.

In terms of keeping up with it there's not a lot to watch at any one time. At most you've got an episode a week for a few weeks and perhaps a movie every 3 months or so in the busier years.

I've enjoyed everything so far.
Nothing they've put out has been "bad" yet, though a couple of things have came close over the past 14 years (Eternals is probably the worst one for me).

Looks intriguing but agree with those questioning the CGI.

I watch everything.

It's really not that much. 3 or 4 movies a year and 3 or 4 6-8 episode TV shows.

Most the stuff is decent at worst, with only the odd stinker like Eternals.

The one issue I have with the MCU is because at least until now it's been tied to actors most of which are big names they keep killing off characters rather than re-casting like Tony Stark. Losing Ironman from the MCU because RDJ is done kinda sucks. Hopefully now with Multiversal shenanigans we can get some variants show up as main guys now.

Losing RDJ and Chris Evans has frankly been a huge, interest-sapping blow for me. I haven’t really LOVED a Marvel film since Endgame, they’ve all just been ‘fine’.

New ‘Daredevil’ Series In Works At Disney+

A new Daredevil series is in development at Disney+, with Covert Affairs creators Matt Corman and Chris Ord attached to write and executive produce, sources confirmed to Deadline.

Fans have been wanting a new Daredevil series since Netflix’s Daredevil was canceled in 2018 after three seasons. Talk has ramped up recently following the appearance of Daredevil (Charlie Cox) in Spider-Man: No Way Home and main antagonist Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio) in Disney+ series Hawkeye. Also adding to the project’s momentum was the recent move of all Marvel Netflix series, including Daredevil, to Disney+.

Almost certain they'll both appear in Echo too.

It's the Daredevil Era and I'm here for it.

I've just started rewatching Daredevil with my partner who has never seen it (we're like 2 episodes in) so this is timely news!

Still the best thing in the MCU imo

It was heavily rumoured to the point that everyone knew it was coming, but they'd never actually announced anything.

It’s still comfortably the best MCU show, if you cut season 2 some slack. Very much looking forward to the new one watering down all of the violence and it being designed for teenagers.

Yeah S2 is definitely not to the same standard as S1/3, but it's impressive they managed to turn it back around for S3 rather than it just declining. There is still some good stuff in S2 but when I say Daredevil is the best thing in the MCU I'm really just meaning S1 and S3.

I think S3 might actually be better. Having just restarted S1 and rewatched the famous hallway fight scene, it is still excellent, but the cuts are more obvious than I remember and some of the hits don't connect as well as they could - the prison escape in S3 absolutely blows it away.
