It couldn't be more amazing, having all the great characters in the same series working together.

There's going to plenty of negatives in this review. Let me vent the positives first. Charlie Cox (Daredevil) and Krysten Ritter (Jessica Jones) are both brilliant. They got me to episode seven, truly. Individually, the characters are just as strong as in their respective shows, together, the chemistry between Jones and Daredevil is stunning. Wai Ching Ho (Madame Gao) is the best villain in the thing and, though woefully underused, Elodie Yung (Elektra Natchios) is great as well. Scott Glenn does well as Stick and it was cool to see him back. The fight scenes are well-filmed and exciting. Ok. Now to the problems. Sigourney Weaver (Alexandra) plays a baffingly shallow villain that is the definition of one-dimensional. Both Jessica Henwick (Colleen Wing) and Finn Jones (Danny Rand) whine almost incessantly. I understood the reasoning for it in Iron Fist, but here, it is constant and DRAGS the series down. I hated Iron Fist by the time episode 7, out of 9, came around, and this wasn't the intent of the show. Mike Colter (Luke Cage) spends most of his screen-time virtue-signaling and complaining in true SJW fashion. Simone Missick (Misty) is HORRID. HORRID. Her character is the embodiment of unnecessary virtue-signaling and is a hindrance, not a help, to the plot. She is arrogant, wrapped up in her own self importance with no regard for how things actually work in the real world.People, this is terrible. My only recommendation is to somehow watch only the scenes with Jessica and Daredevil and view some of the ones with Gao. Elektra has some cool moments and so does Stick, but I will not be going back to this anytime soon. Horrid.

Great to see DD and Iron Fist together. Luke cage and Jessica jones could've been left out, as their shows are boring dribble and have nothing in common with DD and Iron fists shows. But i'd still rather only see JJ and LC in another defenders then for them to have another full season.

The Defenders had quite a few things to deliver. A proper villain, chemistry between its heroes, plenty of action and heart and the redemption of problem characters. It checks most of these boxes, but only partially. While the performances and interactions between the team are mostly on point, the plot and teamup feels forced and unnatural. Iron Fist is still the main problem and not every character get's a moment to shine truly. Action is pretty generic and the villain is mildly disappointing. All around, fun at times, but if skipped, nobody will miss out on anything.
