  • Daredevil is absolutely amazing, my favourite comic tv show I watch.

    Haven't seen Flash, so dunno about that.

    Gotham is meh.

    But those are just my personal opinions, you should watch a few episodes from each and choose yourself. :P

  • Daredevil over the Flash and Gotham, and Flash over Gotham as well.

    In my opinion it's Daredevil > The Flash > Gotham.

    Daredevil is great, The Flash is really good and I honestly don't like Gotham.

    Agents of SHIELD is great too after the first 10 or so episodes. I know that's quite a bit to say, but Season 2 of the show was insanely good. What an epic turn-around.

    Daredevil is definitely my favorite, it's a really amazing crime drama that perfectly captures the spirit of the modern comics. Matt Murdock is a really awesome protagonist, and they managed to make his series very serious and grounded while still retaining the fun and playful moments a superhero story needs to keep it from being TOO self-serious.

  • Flash is one of the best tv shows I've ever watched and this comes from someone who has never read the comics. Gotham I hear is awful and Daredevil I hear great things, but I haven't watched it.

  • eh only the 1st couple of episode were meh

    Is there any American media that doesn't revolve around superheroes anymore? I'd hate to look at the era of Jersey Shore as a period of new ideas and creativity...

    Oh, I forget, you still have the occasional book adaptation or live action Disney remake...

  • Gotham is not awful. Whenever I've seen people say that, it's because they tend to be comic book nerds that can't handle deviations, even though there are MANY versions of Batman. People also love to say "The villains will be too old when Bruce becomes Batman" even though the villains are in their early to mid 20s in the show and Bruce is 13 or 14.

  • This so much it. pisses me off how they act.

    "WHAAT catwoman can't be older than bruce"
    She's like 2 years older at most

    The dumbest i seen was
    "Poison ivy isn't hot enough" Facepalm

  • yeah "lol internet"

  • I usually don't watch superhero Tv-series. But I decided to give Daredevil Tv-show a chance...

    Daredevil is officially my favorite Marvel superhero of all times. God! Such an amazing show!

  • Daredevil all the way

  • Daredevil, if you had to choose between any super-hero show or movie, I'd say Netflix's Daredevil.

  • Daredevil is the best thing Marvel has ever done in the MCU and it destroys these other two shows.

    I'd say episode 5 was quite good to now to be fair. Was quite a sad one too.

  • Daredevil and Flash are the best from their respective IP holders, and they're both good for different reasons.
    DD is a bit more grounded (while still having ninjas on fire and radiation superpowers), it's also more serious.
    Flash is pure, over the top, campy fun while still having one of the best tv shows villains i've seen, but it suffers GREATLY from useless romance drama.
    Gotham's only good parts were Pengy and Harvey, everything else was meh.
    Constantine was pretty cool, altho they neutered the titular character a bit (then again they were even forbidden from making him smoke) and, well, it died because no views.
    Arrow's writers somehow got the impression that felicity fans are the only ones paying the bills so they're trying to pander to them any way they can, which makes the show almost painful to watch, also it's more archer Batman than Green Arrow.

  • Supernatural.

  • I suggest watching Person Of Interest. You would probably like it.

  • Gotham is good if you like backstory.

  • Poison Ivy has the wrong name, i think that's worse than "not being hot enough".
    But yeh, people who use poison Ivy's child hotness as an argument are probably those who think Batman is the best Avenger.

    Riddler and Renee are definitely of the wrong generation tho.

    But yeah poison ivy is more than just a pretty face in the comics and she's an orphan now and its been stated her soon to be adoptive parents wanted to call her pamela

    It's really just Hollywood trying to cash in on the franchise building of the MCU now the MCU I don't mind considering that I enjoy what Marvel is doing.

    I did see one original piece of film and that was Chappie which was UTTER SHIT.

  • I think they're all good in terms of superhero shows, but in terms of what is the best drama? These shows really aren't as good compared to The Wire, Breaking Bad etc

  • to be fair for a long time her whole thing was being a biology-fueled honey trap.
    her character was mainly 3 things: being pretty, being a botanist and being greedy as fuck.
    completely missed the part about her getting put up for adoption tho, must've been because i quickly lost interest whenever Penguin or Harvey weren't on screen

    That was the one where Ward saved Simmons when she was about to kill herself to save the crew.
