I haven't even watched the first season but many who have the first half of the 2nd season said it was great by the end.

 

Any truth to that?

I finished the second season now. 

 

The first part of the first season is pretty good, but the second part is awful. 

The first couple of episodes of the second season is embarrassingly bad, but it does get better and the end is pretty good. I wouldn't say great if you compare to Daredevil, Punisher or JJ season 1 because Luke Cage is too limited by its characters and setting, but at least I wanted to watch the next episode to know what was going to happen (while I finished LC1 and JJ2 with difficulty, it was hard to keep watching).

 

Basically, when they stop with the "bulletproof black man" dabbing on YouTube, walking in slow motion in the street and using n*gga twice in each sentence to greet people passing by, and they instead focus on the plot, it gets a lot better. So weird and unexpected! 

Sadly, I haven't gotten more than a couple of episodes into any of the Netflix shows. I do want to get into The Punisher when I have some spare time. Too bad about Luke Cage. Even the people I know that praised it said 13 Episodes are too much for the story they were trying to tell. I guess I'll stick to Black Lighting.

 

Lol! Forgot this was a Solo thread!
