I'm definitely going to check out Daredevil. I didn't know they had all of these other shows planned, though. If they are well done then I am all for it!

 

I also want to add that I was never a big fan of the Flash, but I've really enjoyed the first season.  If you haven't checked it out I would suggest doing so.

I am also going to check out Dardevil.

As far as the Flash, I am mostly meh on it.  I had high hopes, but it seems mostly to be Smallville version 2.  Instead of meteor freak of the week, you have explosion freak of the week.  same old formula.  He's in love with the girl he grew up with but she is dating a super great guy.  So, he pines for her?  Another stereotypical situation.  IF the show lasts, it will be a story line that drags on for years...  I continue to watch it hoping that something changes for the better.

As somebody who has only seen the first season of Smallville, I definitely feel that the Flash is much better. Having that supporting cast, who know his secret, means that things seem to develop a lot better in Smallville, where basically nothing seems to happen

The monster of the week thing does occur, but not quite every week and we always get a few hints at the larger plot. 

I personally love it, though Arrow is staying ahead in my book

 

As for the Marvel series, I think it's a good idea. I do have a lot of time in my life at the moment, but I do fear that before too long we will be looking at comicbook overload. For Marvel, they're going to have 2 series on Netflix a year it seems as well as SHIELD and Agent Carter. What happens if all 4 of these series get second series, might they all be running at once?

When you combine that with DC having Arrow, Flash, Supergirl (Constatine, Gotham) and the Arrow/Flash spin-off thing, it's just getting a little out of control. Then you consider the number of movies they've all got going too...
