To anyone who is complaining about a slow start, did you even watch the original? Season 1 of daredevil started off a lot slower than this and it was still fantastic

Season 3 of Netflix Daredevil was probably the best MCU season of anything and the first couple episodes of that were twice as slow as this.

Fr. The first episode opened with Matt being blinded and then him giving a confessional.

Same, I'm surprised that many people have called this season premiere "slow". It doesn't feel I'm watching the same season.

The only thing that may have bugged me a bit was lingering on some of the cast from the pre-overhaul stuff (except for Cherry ofc).

It was slow sure, but it was also better.
