kudos on them making Bushmaster twice as interesting as Diamondback was in season one, though

I like the Jamaican angle.

I tapped out of S1 when Diamondback came in, totally boring

If they removed all the intense pointless conversations between pairs of characters, they'd have a pretty good 4-episode season.

yup - another season of Marvel’s Two People Talking (In A Mostly Empty New York)

Netflix Marvel is just sad

Wow, this season's narrative unravels really quickly.

Yeah gets a bit clunky in places.
Cameo from Iron Fist if you stay with it that far.
But did have some bits i enjoyed.

Phew. Made it through this one. Once I saw the post about Two Characters Talking Intensely I couldn't get it out of my head, so thanks for that! Seriously they need to make these 8 episode seasons, at most. I feel like most of the Netflix Marvel shows have some good stuff in them (ok, not Iron Fist, and Punisher was too violent for me to even make it through one episode), but so much damn filler...

Is there any financial reason Netflix seem committed to these 13 episode seasons?

Their revenue comes from subscriptions so can't see how an 8 or 10 episode season would impact on things. Is it just viewer expectation?

Would have thought that a viewer expectation could always be redrawn if the prototype for the change was successful.
Is there a history of shows long enough for there to be a tradition yet.
13 weeks = 1/4 of a year but these things are simultaneously released so that doesn't hold much water.
