The show so far simply isn't very good. I've yet to be given a reason to care about the outcome of Danny's spat with his siblings. They've spent three episodes having repetitive conversations about whether or not Danny is Danny. This could have and should have been resolved in the first episode. The acting is hit or miss, and the show is full of cliches. *spoilers* The prodigal son returning to his business after an enlightening experience (Batman Iron Man), Danny giving Colleen casual advice as he casually blocks her attacks (Morpheus, Affleck Daredevil) , the crowd jeering at the small seemingly weak fighter who we know is going to take out the musclebound jerk off. (Etc etc. The generic far east wisdom Danny spouts is hackneyed regardless of whether it's coming from a white man or an asian man.
Boring meandering and repetitive plot, flat characters with vague motivations, and an overall lack of stakes. It's a boring show so far. What has the world come to when we can't hate a show starring white people for sucking?

Daredevil, Jessica, and Luke are all trying to save others in their first episode, but Danny is just having a conflict with his half-siblings. Aside from the fact that Danny seems somewhat nice, and his stepbrother is a douche, I'm not sure exactly why I should care. |
because we've seen the hand is evil in Daredevil and Danny mentions in episode 2 he's the sworn enemy of them and has to defend heaven's city. That's a pretty major concern.

Why is that a major concern? Why do I give a shit about what happens to heaven's city?
