Daredevil TV Show and More Heading to Netflix

YES

@jonsmith: Yes. You are right!
Im so happy with how Agent of Shields is turning out.
I wonder if they would introduce one of the above character first in AOS

@jeanralphio: I feel the same way but im gonna give the show a chance

Yes... a hundred times yes!!

It would be great if it's set in the MCU. Then we could have different incarnations of the Avengers and superhero teams,I remember hearing RDJ wanted to quit Marvel,so new Avengers could be a possibility.

Jessica Jones -_-...Why waste a show on her? Her mythos are weak and she can be put in Luke Cage's story.

Luke Cage can be epic if done right also Daredevil. Ironfist will be kind of hard to do, but im sure Netflix has something up their sleeves

im in your boat....

My last pay check was $9500 working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do,,,,

In all fairness to FOX, all five networks screw up when it comes to programming choices. FOX does have Sleepy Hollow, and Almost Human looks as though it may be alright. They have announced Gotham, i look forward to that, even though i'm not that big of a DC fan. Their sister station FX (owned by FOX), have one of my current favorite shows American Horror Story: Coven. I would trust FX to do The Punisher, though if it happens it probably won't be them.

@war_killer: I don't mean to pile on, but I'm really not sure you fully understand the model of Netflix. Every episode of these series is likely to post on the same day, not week to week like regular TV shows. Assuming they release these shows in 4 separate months, that's only $8 per show if you want to see them immediately to avoid spoilers. If you can wait awhile, you can watch all four full seasons for $8. Plus, for the rest of that month, you have access to an almost endless amount of movies and television shows. Then you can easily cancel the service afterwards.

A single movie at most theaters will cost you more and give you five times less content. This is a comic site, so I assume you read comics, $8 will only buy you 2 comics, and those are a weekly expense, not a one time thing. I know you don't have premium channels, but if you have cable at all (which you may not) that is significantly more expensive per month than Netflix, at least 3 times as much. For people who don't have the ability to stream HD video I understand being upset with this delivery method, but the price issue is completely irrelevant.

Plus, Netflix allows considerably more creative freedom than the network system, so these shows actually have the possibility of being good. Unlike Arrow or Agents of SHIELD.

I know Luke Cage was in the Ultimate Defenders, but I'm very confused as to why they are calling this team Defenders. Otherwise this is nothing but amazing news. ABC's Agents of SHIELD has been a huge disappointment, but Netflix has better track record than ABC does with quality programing. Can't wait to see who they get in these roles.

Awesome!!

@captain13: Yeah I guess. But still there would HAVE to be a better character than Jessica Jones. Like maybe she-hulk?

The new Defenders

What most people here have to understand is that these shows what not pull the numbers needed to be on (antiquated) public TV. This model, for airing shows is over and the future is netflix type of distro and paid apps on your internet connected devices. Once the studios and more so the tv distributors figure this out we will get more shows through the "sack" screening process and let Joe Public decide what is best not the so called testers. Who do get paid to give an opinion which is kinda messed up. Just my opinion.

Hasn't Warner shown that they can do good tv shows, movies and cartoons and DC still be independent and make their comics?

To tell the truth I am most interested in seeing a good version of Jessica Jones made. I hope that the Jessica presented here will be more like the Jessica from Alias and not the suppot player later seen in avengers

Lol come on FOX, your move :P

Seriously FOX has been on Marvel's tail for the entire damn year. I'd like to see them announce a pointless TV show.

Finally! Agents Of Shield has not been cutting it for me so far.

Looks like Disney/Marvel Studios got the Daredevil rights back from Fox and putting it to good use. Funny I was just thinking about this.

Meh ill pass on these and whatever DC is doing on the CW. The only possible one I might watch if the casting is done well is Luke Cage.

I hope they are good but SHIELD has be kind of a let down

Always have.

The more I think about this, the cooler it is. I like that the 4 shows will intertwine and apparently end up as one Defenders show. I don't really get why the Defenders, since none of these characters have had much of a relationship with the Defenders, but as a long-time Defenders fan it's still cool to see them get some attention. And I like that Marvel would be setting up a secondary team to the Avengers, so the Avengers won't be the only team.

Since I my friend and I use netflix for Arrow all the time, it'll be easy to watch these as well.

The Heroes for Hire a completely unrelated origins. That's a story you have to build up to like the Avengers. Maybe they'll do it in their phase 2.

Disney has no real influence on Marvel at least not at the moment. Worried about Warner being behind DC as well?

I'd prefer if it was a movie personally. Have Heroes for Hire with Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones and then have Daredevil as a cameo in a after credits scene. Followed by the Daredevil movie and also the Punisher could show up. Then that would lead into a Punisher movie.

YES! This is fantastic news!

This is so awesome!! And it's all leading up to a Defenders miniseries :D

Now just hoping for a Punisher tv series

Mother of God...

With Disney behind Marvel I'm worried.

Captain Marvel is more of a movie character. She would be too expensive to do right on tv. Jessica has a private eye angle for her series.

Don't worry. Marvel has diversified they portfolio. For them superhero is just an aesthetic. Justice compare their Captain America political thriller to their space sci fi Guardians of the Galaxy to the mystic Dr. Strange.

There goes the superhero genre it's going to become as repetitive as all the other genres.

Sweet! But why the hell is jessica jones getting her own series? All she's really done is get mind-raped by purple man and marry luke cage. Nothing against her, I just think that this is a little bit odd considering all the other female characters that deserve a show much more than her *cough cough* captain Marvel *cough cough*

Unlikely. Whereas DC is somewhat ashamed of their characters, preferring to go all Batman Begins on 'em, getting as far away from the comic book crazy stuff as they can, Marvel tends to embrace it wholeheartedly. So we'll probably get people and costumes almost torn from the pages of the comics.

Awesome!

Netflix is a good way to get casual fans more into the comic books, so I'm all for it.

totally down for luke cage and iron fist, couldnt care less about daredevil

@feedonatreefrog: read Immortal Iron Fist and your life will be forever changed

I'm diggin the Daredevil announcement.

But can someone explain to me the appeal of Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist?

They seem so bland; both powers and costumes.

Netflix is worth every bit of the $7.99 a month. Even if you don't watch these shows it's worth it just being able to stream JL and JLU!

The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. cast should be embarrassed at this point.

A bit harsh but I hope they are. The show is killing me.

@liveforever: I could only dream

Ooohhh I just read the part that says ABC Television Studios will be co-producing the show, so all 4/5-series should be connected to the MCU :)
