I finished the show yesterday and I gotta say as a whole I think it was alright. Wasn't great by any means, but not nearly as horrible as some people said. Just alright, it's decent.

It has a lot of really dumb moments though where it seems like they just ignored any sort of logic and just did what they did anyway to continue the plot. Some of the dialogue is really cringey and feels out of place. For a show about the Iron Fist it feels like the Iron Fist was barely used at all. Also towards the later half of the season it felt like so many things were thrown at the wall to see what sticks and it felt like so many random things were happening all of a sudden. It felt like it losts it sense of direction and was trying to do too many different things all of a sudden.

For example (spoiler): Out of nowhere at the end they hint that Joy is going to become a villian? What the fuck, that's out of nowhere and had no build up at all to try to hint that at the end.

I feel like Danny had no personality at a lot of times and just said things most of the time in the same sort of quiet tone of voice with no emotion to it. I'm not sure whether this is the actor's fault or whether it was just the script he was given and couldn't do much with it, but come on dude, fucking have some fun every now and then. Crack a joke. Even in parts where it's meant to be serious with what he's dealing with it seems like he just kind of goes about it in the same kind of attitude. I don't know how to describe it, hopefully in the Defenders he's able to have more of a personality. 

I didn't think the fight scenes were that bad. I know they were a criticism a lot of people mentioned about the show. 

Overall i'd say it's like a 6/10. It's decent, could have been much easily better though.
