Finished, and it's definitely my favorite of the Marvel series', though after just-watched hype dies, Daredevil season 1 might beat it. But the parts of this that felt "real" were really, really on point. I mentioned it before, and while I can see complaints about pacing for people who don't *crave* the long-form of storytelling, the reviews that hated this the most were mostly based on their political distaste with guns. Protip: if you've got that strong a political bias against guns, maybe The Punisher isn't the show for you, and in the interest of an honest review, put that disclaimer in giant freakin' flashing neon letters. I don't like violence, particularly; I rather quite hate it, and tend to skip it or turn away from it in shows. And I'm glad there was as little of it as there was here. But I'm not letting that influence my opinion of how well it was produced or accomplished the story it set out to tell.

I quite liked this series. Especially after the last few being meh to okay on Netflix.
It maybe dragged a little bit in a few parts, and the episode with (very minor spoilers I guess), but overall I still thought this was worth watching even knowing very little about the Punisher before going into this.Spoiler: show
The wife and I just finished ep 8(We're slow). And we're both loving it, me a bit more than her I think. She has trouble with the blood and ends up covering her eyes and asking me "Is it over yet?" when anything gets too gross.
So far I like it better than DD season 1,which is something I never thought I'd say
it was fine, i was more into the veteran's stuff than anything frank was doing. frank and his partner had pretty good back and forths, still think 13 episodes are too many. while the defenders had a lot of problems, it being 8 episodes feels about right for how long these seasons should fun
I'm hopping on board with the on-par with DD1/JJ bandwagon. It does have the benefit of Frank's character already being established in DD2, but the story didn't have any really big weaknesses or loose ends.Spoiler: show
The supporting cast was all pretty good imo, especially Madani as an original character

Finally finished it last night. The first 8 episodes could have been 3 or 4 with large chunks cut out and nothing of value would be lost. The last 5 were really good though.
just finished it as well, p easily my favorite from the Netflix Marvel serieseses.

I don't recall what episode I'm at (I want to say 7) but it's been a very fun show and Jon B has grown on me between this and The Accountant. At times though, I'd swear he's John Cena's brother when he has short hair.
I dunno, I still see Shane. I just can't shake it.
Nontheless, the show is as bloody as you would expect Punisher to be. Was a fun ride.
Haven't really enjoyed any marvel stuff on netflix, most of it I just wasn't interested in. DD was ok, but imo it is no comparison to this.
The Punisher was easily my favorite.
Was not interested in Luke Cage or Jessica Jones, haven't watched a single episode. Watched the first episode of iron fist but that didn't grab my attention either.
Way more interested in the brutal nature of this character.
Ya. I watched like 1 or 2 of all the others before completely losing interest. Been blitzing through this as best as I can working 70+hrs/week. Fallen asleep 3 nights in a row trying my best to watch episode 8. Never make past the first like 3min. Eff my job for paying me good moneys.

Just finished it. Pretty sure it's at the top of my list of Marvel Netflix series now.

Regardless of my minor complaints, I'm very much looking forward to more. Bernthal nailed it IMO. One minor question though, does anyone know where in the timeline this takes place? I've never much tracked the show's timelines but between DD taking months/year (?) off, and the opening episode here, I'm not sure where everything falls together at.
