Daredevil Season 2: 10 Reasons To Be Excited

10. It'll Build On A Great First Season

I've already mentioned that the first season of Daredevil was pretty great. It was a focused study of two characters who were two sides of the same coin; Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk wanted the same things for Hell's Kitche, they just had VERY different ideas about how they were to do it. Added to that were the origins of Daredevil, the great dynamic between Matt, Foggy, and Karen, interesting supporting characters like Claire Temple, and some of the best action scenes we've seen from a superhero story on screen. There could be a worry that it was so good they might not be able to top it, but indications are that they can. For a start, the origins are out of the way. That means that this can focus even more on Daredevil as a hero, and the conflicts he faces. The supporting characters (those that have made it, anyway) are more rounded now too, so there are more places to go with characters such as Foggy and Karen, while they world they inhabit is already built, and fleshed out further thanks to Jessica Jones. There's a lot of great stuff to build upon, and means some of the hard work has already been done.
