Well, I am not a Marvel Fan as such and I certainly don't read the comics. I watched about 90 % of the movies but they became more and more tedious for me. I just mention this so you better understand my comment.
I watch the Marvel shows because they are on Disney. Simple as that. Some I liked (Wanda and Falcon), some I didn't (Loki) and this one is kind of in nowhere-land. Started well and I hoped it would make the character of Hawkeye more interesting. It didn't, and after the first couple of episodes I liked it less and less. The story just didn't make me care for anything that happened on screen. And the humor and awkwardness that nowadays seems to be a must-have doesn't sit well with me either. What some percieve as funny are roll-eyes-moments for me I could live without. There were no real highlights and I really didn't like Kate Bishop. Bringing back Kingpin only made me realize how much I would love to have had another Daredevil season.
Since this shows main purpose is to be a precursor for upcoming movies I might not even watch, it is entirely possibly I am not getting the point of them. Maybe they don't work as stand alone because they are not supposed to. And because of that maybe I should not watch another.
I am not ripping them of or calling them awful but that's my point of view.

@finfan My biggest problem with the MCU is its "we'll address it in the future" mentality because it's often a repeating cycle where none of your questions about the characters ever get addressed, resolved or explored in depth. These shows really are like comic books: your favourite characters go on an adventure, have cross-overs, continue on to the next instalment, and nothing ever *really* changes. Repeat.<br /> <br /> But that's just my opinion :P

@clobby-clobsters That mentality is what I was referring to when I say "precursor to the movies". You don't get much, if any, conclusion in the show itself but rather have to watch the movies for that. And if you watch the movies and haven't watched a corresponding show you might not understand the characters actions and/or decisions.<br /> <br /> Thanks for the reply.
