Yeah, I would say The Hand's plot (which was already very vague with a rather ropey evil plan involved), and Castle's plot both became somewhat less effective as the season rolled on. Looking back, I think the writers were seemingly a little too preoccupied with setting up the next season, as well as the big Defenders showpiece of course. What absolutely made S2 for me was the dynamic between Castle and Murdock. Parts of the third episode were positively spellbinding. The Punisher is, as a character, such a great foil for Daredevil.

It does seem like Hulu has already revealed an interest in acquiring Daredevil, at the very least. I'd imagine that when the purchase of Fox eventually goes through, Hulu would be a decent choice for Disney to show its more adult aimed properties on. Overall though, as great as Marvel traditionally is at marketing, this feels like something of a misstep. Letting all these shows be cancelled (and of course, we can now add Punisher and Jessica Jones to that list) with little word on their future, is just going to frustrate and disappoint the fans.

Perhaps even a little bit questionable for Olivia Colman to be nominated as leading actress, with Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz as supporting actresses, since all the parts were roughly about the same size. Still, I think it would be fair to say that Colman’s performance was probably the best of the three. Ethan Hawke missing out for best actor for First Reformed seems the biggest snub, although Bradley Cooper not being nominated comes close. Not that I was crazy about A Star Is Born, but it was still a surprising omission.

Honestly, just as the Terminator franchise became more or less unsalvageable after the third movie, I thought MiB was pretty much killed by the second. I don't mind the international angle though, feels like the right way to handle this and let them do their own thing with it. I sincerely believe too that Tessa Thompson is one of the best actors around right now.

Oh god, Chelsea are going to bring back Mourinho aren't they.

It would seem that S3 has found its Professor X in nasty old Viserys Targaryen, with Stephanie Corneliussen also on board as David’s mother, Gabrielle. As a huge fan of the series, I'll be sad to see it go after just three seasons, but I'm confident that it'll end on an artistic high note.

What do you think of Fabio Borini?

My perception of Coleman shifted a little afterwards, for the most part he comes across as an amiable guy who perhaps didn't deserve to be parachuted into something so disfunctional, and you could obviously see how much it meant to him when that radgie confronted him outside the stadium. However, he seemed to reach the end of his tether remarkably quickly, with the aforementioned summarisation by Aiden McGeady of his capabilities feeling like a bit of a wakeup call. I’d assumed, mainly from his stint with Wales, that Coleman was a modern, innovative coach who put hours of work into tactics and coaching the players to be better, but McGeady cut right through all that with a single withering assessment. Perhaps his particular management style just didn't work in such a toxic environment where the confidence of the squad was already totally shot. Looking forward to the second series, presumably with each episode dedicated to one of our attempts to land Will Grigg.

Yeah, I think the main question for me isn’t whether Disney could get the characters, because I'm sure they could, it’s whether they would want to keep producing the shows within their self-imposed “PG-13 and below only” rule. Or at least, make them in a way that kept them recognisable as continuations of the same shows. I’d be more inclined to have hope if they’d said they were looking to shift them to another streaming service. How are you liking Daredevil so far, by the way?

I suppose that line in the cancellation statement put forth by Netflix about the characters still being a part of future projects will have given people a glimmer of hope, either that Marvel is planning to use some of them in the MCU (maybe post Thanos when many of the current Avengers are likely out of the picture) or that Disney continue the shows on their own streaming service. Honestly though, as much as of a thrill as either of those scenarios would be to see, I don't know if I could see them happening anytime soon, if at all.

That would have been such a hell of a thing. The Jump Street Universe? Take that, Marvel! 😆

I'd consider Laura to be one of our most consistent artists and certainly one of our best, but at this point she's probably more of a critical favourite than a commercial one. She keeps a very low profile between releases and doesn't do a lot of media or fan engagement, so unless something unexpected were to happen in the future, it would be hard to see her 'breaking out', so to speak. Hopefully somewhere along the line though she makes that heavy metal album she keeps hinting at in interviews, that would be a lot of fun to listen to. My first experience of her music was similarly random, when I just so happened to catch a performance of hers on the Jools Holland show one week. Twelve years later, she's still the owner of one of the most understated but effortlessly pure voices I think I've ever heard.

I might give it a shot. A lot of the things I liked about the original Men In Black were forgotten about in the sequels, no idea if they'll be reinstated for this of course but Hemsworth and Thompson both being in it has me interested. As well as F. Gary Gray in the director’s chair.

Our first look at S6 has arrived.
