I mentioned over a month ago that I'd started rewatching Daredevil seasons 1-3, ready for the new Daredevil Born Again series. Which is a continuation to a large extent. I made some progress back then, but then stalled for a month. Yesterday I resumed, rewatching at speed episodes 5-13 of season 1, and so far episodes 1-10 of season 2. At this rate I expect to have rewatched or watched all 3 seasons before next week's new series launch.
To be fair I'm not watching the full episodes, skipping a lot of the lengthy fight scenes, and also skipping some of the more lengthy verbose bits. Typically I can get through a nearly hour long episode in 20 minutes. Even 15 minutes sometimes. Which has let me get through it quickly, in very limited awake time.
However I will need to pay more attention to most of season 3. I only watched the first few episodes of that originally. So I will want to take a bit more time watching that. But I still expect to get through the lot before the March 5th launch of Daredevil Born Again.
It's interesting rewatching even at speed. So many iconic moments. It also feels that season 1 was a more coherent whole than season 2, even if the additions of the Punisher and Elektra are generally successful.
I'm also struck by how long a lot of the fight scenes are, that I can largely skip this time, at least through to a certain point in season 3. And it doesn't look as though Born Again is going to tone down the brutality.
It's also apparent how good and effective the supporting cast is. Even if many of them are eventually killed off one way or another. And the plotting is strong too.
Anyway yes, Daredevil Born Again coming to Disney+ on 5th March. And I should have rewatched Daredevil's previous 3 seasons in time. Even if in my confusion I keep thinking they're still on Netflix, not on Disney+.
