Though Daredevil is a well-written show on the whole, there's one area where the creases still need ironing out: the dialogue. Caught somewhere between hard-boiled noir-isms and sarcastic pop culture speak, season 1's dialogue was a bit all over the place, stylistically, while some of the characters also had an odd predilection for confessing their innermost feelings in some fairly unsubtle and self-serious ways. The final season 1 scene between Matt and Claire, in which she prepares to leave the city and he appears to confess his love for her, is one particular example of Daredevil season 1 being blunt, hammy and a little bit daytime soap-y. DeKnight and Goddard could've added a bit of polish to that one. Someone also needs to do something about the swearing. Sure, it's nice and all that they've finally allowed a Marvel project to use curse words, but simply repeating sh*t and cr*p - two of the most vanilla of TV swear words - doesn't sound tough, it just sounds like the show refuses to drop any hard-R language because the suits are secretly still aiming for the 12A audience. It's jarring that Daredevil won't allow for f-bombs, but will make room for gory head-smashing and patricide.
