why is season 2 getting rated so lowly? is it the same problem as season 1 in terms of ratings? cus afaik critics only watch like first few episodes and then rate the season overall or something

Also loved the new season. Hopefully, when eventually this series get axed just like the rest of the Netflix Marvel stuff, Disney or whoever decides to continue with the same actor(s) and same level of quality and style in the future.

new season was good but the pacing was off with the introduction of russo. first they're running for their lives, and all of a sudden they get a huge respite while punishane deals with russo. having just pilgrim would've been fine. and it went from pilgrim + army hunting them to just pilgrim.

That's my hope as well. Don't have much faith though

Imo the first half was really good. The second half wasn't as exciting (at least in my opinion). It felt like a lot of filler and all that. I also didn't like what happened to the villian (Pilgrim I think his name is?) that was disappointing.

Still enjoyed it and am sad that season 3 will never come.

The only thing this season was missing for me was an epic 5 minute montage of terrible, terrible damage that Punisher inflicts on people after he said "Just let me be who I was meant to be..."

It started of great, then fell into the usual issue of having ~4 episodes too much like most netflix/marvel shows and ended good again, like most netflix/marvel shows.

They should let the "shoot'em'up" director make a movie.

Was bound to happen, but here it is.

“Marvel’s The Punisher will not return for a third season on Netflix,” Netflix confirmed today to Deadline. “Showrunner Steve Lightfoot, the terrific crew, and exceptional cast including star Jon Bernthal, delivered an acclaimed and compelling series for fans, and we are proud to showcase their work on Netflix for years to come,” the streamer added.

“In addition, in reviewing our Marvel programming, we have decided that the upcoming third season will also be the final season for Marvel’s Jessica Jones,” Netflix also made official this President’s Day. “We are grateful to showrunner Melissa Rosenberg, star Krysten Ritter and the entire cast and crew, for three incredible seasons of this groundbreaking series, which was recognized by the Peabody Awards among many others”.

Weird decisions, DD and Punisher were the best part of their series, I understand why would they cancel JJ, LC and Iron Fist.

Bernthal is a great Punisher, gives me vibes.

Why is that happening? It's like DC got rid of their best asset so far (Batfleck), and now Marvel does the same with their TV series. Or is that Netflix to blame?

I think it has to do with Disney starting up its own proprietary streaming service. Disney has been planning to pull all of the licenses for its major franchises from potential competitors. Now that streaming has devalued traditional TV platforms, content is king.

But yes, Bernthal is awesome as the Punisher, so I wouldn't be surprised if Disney renews the show.

I really hope Disney will just let them rest for now. I don't have any faith in Disney at the moment considering their recent endeavors (killing Star Wars for example).

That is my hope that Disney revives them all. I mean I get Iron fist was not good, but the second season was better and it was just cool how they all interacted within the universe. It would be cool to see how they could do it if they had all their content together. To me anything on netflix was still better than the shows they put out on Cable to I would be up for all and more of them to come back.

I prefer both Legion and Agents of SHIELD to anything on Netflix. If you haven't seen Legion I would very much recommend it.
