Iron Fist and Daredevil season two attempted to expand on their history, but it soon started becoming clear that Marvel Television didn't know what they were doing with this clandestine group of ninjas. When it became clear during the first season of Daredevil that The Hand would be the lead villains tied to nearly all of the Netflix TV shows, there was a lot of excitement among fans. Here's hoping Iron Fist is eventually rebooted for the MCU with a new actor. Creatively speaking, this was nothing short of idiotic.Ī third season with Orson Randall receiving the spotlight alongside Danny had some serious potential, but Marvel Television's slow-burn style of storytelling with this character proved to be a major detriment to the show.

In season one, Danny could barely use the Iron Fist and when the show returned, he spent most of those episodes without it. Overall, Marvel Television dropped the ball on the hero, and the show's cancellation ultimately came as welcome news to many fans. Unfortunately, he was wasted from the start despite a few moments of greatness (that cameo in season two of Luke Cage, for example).

Regardless, thinking about that has led to us looking back at the 5 characters Marvel Television got right.and 5 they really screwed up. Whether that's with the same or different actors remains to be seen, but we're betting it will be a mixture of both. Now, it's looking like the plan is for at least some of these heroes and villains to be softly rebooted for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

However, once it became clear that Disney had plans to launch its own streaming service (and Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige was put in charge of everything), Netflix started killing off these shows quicker than Frank Cast is capable of takin down a group of criminals. Throw in a plethora of supporting players and villains, and Marvel Television ended up introducing a lot of comic book characters on the small screen alongside Netflix. Season one of Daredevil was launched back in 2015 and in the years that followed, we spent quite a bit of time with both the Man Without Fear and heroes like Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Punisher.
