Marvel's The Defenders

Marvel's The Defenders (2017) 
Season 1 - 8 episodes (2017 August 18)
Netflix Original Series
Availability: Global
1 season

Plot:
Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist team up to fight crime. They each have their own series, now they're together.

Review:
Season 1 Rating: Watch it / [It depends] / Skip it
  • This brings four heroes together, but doesn't go anywhere. This season could have been three or four episodes, and that would have been a benefit. There's nearly an entire episode of them sitting in a restaurant talking. What this season needed was an enigmatic villain. Weaver does a great job, but she's too far removed from the action. The Defenders fight the hand, but it's hard to hate a faceless group. If The Defenders returns, it needs a good bad guy to rally our ire. Danny Bland... I mean Danny Rand being at the center of the story doesn't help either. Iron Fist may have ruined Netflix-Marvel properties for me.
Read my Season 1 full review.
