I finished the series last week. The Fight scenes do suck with Danny. What kinda got me was how "all over the map" the characters are. The first couple of episodes Colleen "the Martial artist female" didn't want to give Danny the time of day and then all of a sudden one episode and she has those googly eyes going on. Did I miss something??
For those that haven't seen the whole thing yet Harold, the Father is all over the place and making no sense and Ward and Joy just make no sense as well. Then the ending kinda sucked and again made no sense. It is about talking a character into Killing someone that the person I thought had some feelings for. Oh yea that is a great idea.....what??? You will understand when you see it. I dislike that none of the flashback scenes tied Kun'Lun into the show. They could have at least showed maybe why Danny is doing stupid things or show some conflict in him to where yea he is training to control his emotions but it doesn't work. You know since that certainly didn't work at all when he was in New York. Just my 10 cents |

She found out he was a billionaire. That's like one of the most believable things in this series.

Yeah, that's the guy. I heard today he was up for the role of Danny. Good to know that had they gone another way Danny Rand still would have ****ing sucked.

It just surprises me that they were so subtle with Ward's backstory but didn't have that with anyone else.

I'm 8 eps in and honestly, it's good, not great.
Yes, you'll like it. No, it's not up to Netflix/Marvel par. It's very underwhelming. That said, it's not bad, it's just not up to the level we'd expect... |

I just don't get the hate for the show. It's fairly slow without a lot of the excellent fight scenes of DD, but... I've enjoyed it through Episode 6.

I struggled to get through this. I don't know if it was the writing, the actor or both, but Danny Rand sucked. The Meachem men were interesting and the guy who played Ward did a good job. Other than that, Coleen's ass was the only other redeeming quality.

So I think the fighting is going downhill after episode 6 or so. Its getting a very amateur feel to it.
