After a relatively quiet period of news for Daredevil: Born Again during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the latest Hollywood Reporter article [https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/daredevil-marvel-disney-1235614518/] hits us with some dramatic developments regarding the creative status of DD:BA as well as Marvel Studios’ TV arm in general.

Some of Team #SavedDaredevil’s biggest Covert Affairs fangirls, Rhiannon, Shelby and Christine, sit down today to discuss the 2010 USA Network espionage series about Annie Walker (played by Piper Perabo), an idealistic young CIA trainee who is thrown into duty early as a field operative and guided by her handler, a blind CIA military intelligence agent, Auggie Anderson (Christopher Gorham). The five seasons of the show follow Annie as she develops her skills as a spy while balancing a double life. But why is this series being discussed at all on a Daredevil podcast? Because Covert Affairs is the most notable television credit for Daredevil: Born Again showrunners, Matt Corman and Chris Ord. We hope after listening to today’s pod, fans might feel reassured in Corman and Ord’s qualifications to handle Daredevil, and they might even find a new favorite show to binge.
