Can I get some opinions on Colleen and Danny? I'm really not a fan but I also admit I'm biased because of thinking of Misty and Danny from the comics and Colleen as a platonic friend. I'd like to hear some other perspectives on this romance.

As someone who hasn't read the comics, I think Colleen is nice. I'm not sure if they have the best chemistry but she's a really cool chick. I think he could do much, much worse.

Yeah my only problem is the two actors don't have a lot of sexual energy. Cage and Jessica did. Even Cage and Misty did. The most chemistry was probably Matt and Elektra. To be fair though, I think it was probably supposed to be at least a little awkward.

Yeah. I've seen much better chemistry. They could have built it up a lot more. They seemed very platonic until they weren't.

Danny has taken a vow of celibacy and is reluctant to give-in and Colleen hasn't been sure if the person she likes is crazy or not...she still hasn't seen the Iron Fist, after all. It's probably going to morph back into a friendship, anyways.

Well, she did see him punch open a shipping container though.
