Dardevil Born Again Season 2 Through a Kid's Eyes: Eerily Timely Review


Hello! I know you have all been dying for my Daredevil review. Well… actually you haven’t because I always do it ridiculously late and it only finished this month. But! I knew that I would need to catch up on this for all the MCU business going on and if I didn’t watch it now it would be in 2027 as predicted in my last review. 
 
This is where the problem begins.  
Every other time I’ve watched this, it’s been because I WANTED to. By forcing myself to watch it, I have disturbed the peace. And boy did I feel it. You may notice that these notes are… negative… compared to previous shock at loving Daredevil. I blame the lack of a “boo hissing” era. I also blame Matt Murdock because he is a tool. And I miss Foggy!
 
I’m not including the Punisher one shot in this because I really can’t be bothered. Maybe I’ll watch before Brand New Day, but probably not. So here are my thoughts on Season 2. 
 
Side note this is posting the day after I graduate with my Master’s. #dedication
 
Born Again Season 2

  • I think I like this suit the best so far but it’s still ugly. 
  • Good lord when will Karen be FREEE WHYYYY ARE THEY KISSING? 
    • Editor’s note: this will be a recurring sentiment.
  • Is that… Shaggy ?? …zoinks! 
  • I do not care about these people. 
  • I know it’s just a PTSD thing but the sight of muse pissed me off so bad.
    • Oh. So Heather is crazy now. Great. 
  • Oh tea not them unmasking him… this is about to be bad news bears 
    • Nevermind. They’re all dead. 
    • BULLSEYE ? baaaaaah!
  • I just need everyone to know that I’m watching episode 2 BEFORE my dad. Before. PRIOR to his viewing. Do I get a prize or what? I want a prize.
  • I like Karen’s wig.
    • Do you think? Maybe. He said she was his MJ because she has a red wig? LMAO
  • Well. this is quite poignant. 
  • Wilson Fisk genuinely pisses me off so bad, 
    • I know he’s supposed to but he’s very good at it.
  • ANGELAAA LETS GOOOO that’s my girl!
  • Banana milkshake!! Ok TASTE! 
  • Maybe I’m just a certified hater but like, why is this season so boring?
    • Second question: why does wombat poop come up in so many things I watch?
  • This is a gnarly fight scene though. I’m enjoying it.
  • I hate Vanessa tbh. She’s so annoying.
    • Welp!
  • Bro I hate boxing 
  • Word on the street is that this is a Foggy flashback episode hallelujah!
    • FOGGY NELSON HALLELUJAH
  • Please come back Matt needs to lock in 
  • Of course Matt has a foot fetish. of course he does. because I don’t hate him enough. 
  • At least the show is shot really cool. Props to the camera crew.  
  • OMG! Is that Dani!?
    • JESSICAAAAAAA!! HALLELUJAH!!
  • BB needs to leave this man in the dust. Girl stand up. 
    • Like why are we putting our life on the line for THIS GUY? He’s a nothingburger.
    • Everyone in Hell’s Kitchen leave your man challenge. Go!
  • You all should be glad I was warned about Jessica losing her powers because of the baby because otherwise the blind feminist rage towards the MCU (Misogynist Cinematic Universe) would be a LOT longer than it evidently already is. I am IRATE. 
    • At least she’s kicking butt
  • Let her kill him! What… who said that??
    • Personally, I do have a moral compass. But I don’t think Karen needs one. As a treat. She should kill him 
  • If I see one more ad for this companion podcast I’m losing my mind.
  • GIRL LEAVE HIM omg (This applies to everyone.)
    • NOOO HE GAVE HER UP??? I hate him so much! 
  • w e l p!
  • OMGGGGGG MATTHEW MURDOCK FOR THE DEFENSE!!!
    • AT LAST MY REALLY GOOD LAWYER HAS RETURNED !
  • Buck is so annoying too
    • Omg wait I spoke too soon is he gonna kill Daniel?
  • WOOHOO !
  • Heather… how can you conduct a psych eval if you’re COOCOO LOCA?
    • Frank Castle is where the nerve is… oh I’m sure. 
    • WHY are we fighting over a bum? 😭He wasn’t good enough for either of you and now one of you is crazy and the other is in prison!! Common denominator I fear.
  • omg we get it Jessica had a kid. Get back to kicking butt.
  • Matt is not doing a very good job at being a really good lawyer right now.
    • Wait I lied he’s cooking. I’m sorry I doubted him.
  • Is he going to tell everyone?? Hello?? Now Matt’s going to get arrested… which like,      lowkey fair at this point but still, wow.
    • Maybe I was right the first time.
  • Karen stop crying! Now he’ll get out of your way ! Be free! 💘
    • WHY ARE YOU KISSING HIM AGAIN?!
  • Bruh. Are they going to beat Fisk to death. Wait definitely not, he’s in the next season 
    • Plus he is currently beating THEM to death. so. 
  • WHY ARE THEY STILL TOGETHER? PLEASE BREAK UP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
    • Ah we are arresting Matt. Good. Get him AWAY FROM HER!
    • Luke and Jessica together hallelujah everybody cheered!
  • Is she gonna put on the muse mask? Like, I can’t with her anymore.
    • Girl holy moley get a grip 
 
Well! Here we are. So sorry to all the MCU men out there. Not sorry for my words; sorry that Matt “bum” Murdock has given you a bad rap. Marvel… you are skating on some THIN ICE right now. At least they did me a solid and casted Eman Esfandi in Brand New Day. Reparations. 
 
Anyway it wasn’t THAT bad… I guess. I liked the first season better. And as much as I hate Elektra, I hope she comes back next season and knocks some sense into Matt. Or they could bring Echo back. That would be better reparations. I miss that girl BAD. 
 
Thanks for tuning in!
