It's a tough competition between it and Jessica Jones, but Daredevil edges out its successor as the best thing to come out of the MCU in 2015. Aside from its balls-to-the-wall action - people are still talking about that hallway fight, for instance - and solid casting of Charlie Cox in the lead role and those around him, it instantly allayed any concerns people may have had about the Netflix/Marvel pairing. For anyone still saying that Disney's ownership of Marvel is making the MCU "too light," all you have to do is look at this (and Jessica Jones) to see how wrong you are. Blood is spilled, heads are violently bashed in, and yet it still feels right at home in a world where the Avengers sit in a tower above the city slinging one-liners at one another, blissfully unaware of the street-level issues down below. The first season of the series was relentless, focused, and mature, setting high expectations for both Jessica Jones, which met them, and for its own upcoming second season, which will see Elektra and the Punisher being introduced, as well as the ultimate goal: The Defenders.
