Relatively Terrible
Watch The Video Version Here. [https://youtu.be/Dj0xW2Jye8s] Daredevil is back, and the first thing we notice is the impact: tighter filmmaking, nastier fights, and a street-level Marvel tone that doesn’t flinch. We ask the question people keep dodging, though: is Daredevil: Born Again Season 1 a real MCU comeback, or is it just an aggressively angry spinoff with better lighting and a whole lot of concussions? From the jump, we’re weighing it against the Netflix legacy and the uneven track record of Disney Plus Marvel shows. We get into what worked, what annoyed us, and what made zero sense. Matt Murdock remains an all-time compelling superhero lead, and Charlie Cox sells the character’s calm decency even when the action is brutally physical. We also unpack the details that make the show feel “real” for Marvel: sound design that highlights his senses, violence that has consequences, and a story that stays human-scaled instead of defaulting to aliens and sky beams. Then we argue about the problem baked into the MCU timeline: if this is New York after No Way Home, where is Spider-Man, and why does it feel like nobody else is on call? Wilson Fisk and Vanessa Fisk get their own spotlight because their relationship is its own kind of horror story. We talk manipulation, loyalty, trauma, and the way “vigilante” becomes a label that gets weaponized. We also hit pacing, including the debated middle stretch, and we finish with our favorite part of any family podcast: defending one ridiculous take each before we rate the season on our Relatively Terrible scale. If you’re watching Daredevil: Born Again, tell us your hottest take and whether you’d fix the middle.
