Marvel's The Defenders: Ranking Every Episode From Worst To Best

8. Episode 2: Mean Right Hook

The One Where: Our heroes separately deal with the earthquake that has hit New York and follow up their investigations that lead them closer to the Hand. Eventually, Luke and Danny come to blows and Jessica becomes Matt's latest client.

Verdict: Just because episode 2 is sitting at the bottom of our ranking doesn't mean it is an utterly terrible episode of TV. There is actually a lot to enjoy here. Most notably, the team-up begins to form towards the end of the episode. Meanwhile, Matt's failed attempts to stop being Daredevil continue to be fascinating. Plus, we get Carrie-Ann Moss' sole appearance in the series.

Still, on the whole, this one feels like a bit of pot-boiler for the most part. Before things start to come together at the end, the initial intrigue of episode 1 has mostly worn off and things aren't moving quick enough just yet.
