The Punisher

If there's one word to describe The Punisher it would have to be...awesome! It's one of the most gritty, violent thrillers I've ever seen! There have been a bunch of different versions of The Punisher over the years but Jon Bernthal is absolutely, without a doubt, the best ever and it's not close! He's such an underrated actor who's great in just about everything he's done. Hopefully, they'll bring him back to reprise the role in the future because no one will be able to top what he did with the role! I really can not recommend this show enough, so just go watch it!

As a huge fan of Marvel I'm a little biased because I pretty much like everything they put out. My bias aside, The Punisher is terrific! It's actually my favorite Marvel show (along with Daredevil). If you don't believe me just read through the reviews here and look at the ratings. Even the critics loved this. Jon Bernthal was born to play The Punisher. He's easily the best part of the show. He's one of the most underrated actors working today. Everything he's in is great! This is a show that you'll want to binge as quickly as you can, it's that good. It's too bad that Netflix couldn't renew their contracts with Marvel and they had to stop making the Netflix Marvel shows because every single one of them was great! Now that they're on Disney they can bring these wonderful characters back. They already started to with Daredevil and Kingpin and just renewed Daredevil for another season. Now they have to do the same for The Punisher, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. At least bring them back into the MCU somehow. If you're a Marvel fan then this is a must watch!

Casting is off the charts in this series, Jon Bernthal carries this show, bullet wounds and all. The first season was amazing, the second lacked the storyline development and fell a bit flat. It's hard to care though when the action is so amped.

THE PUNISHER is the best of the Marvel/Netflix TV shows alongside DAREDEVIL. In fact I think it has a slight edge over the latter; the characters feel more human and the action has that extra touch of intensity about it. The first season has a strong first episode but then becomes a slow burner until the second half, while the second kicks off with a bang and manages to carry on the momentum throughout. Great, violent action bolstered by solid plotting and an excellent turn from Bernthal.

I really liked this show. I am not a comic book fan, but somehow found myself sucked in to Daredevil. It sux hard that Netflix cancelled all their Marvil shows.

Anyway, the Punisher was a great character on Daredevil, and despite some bad reviews, we gave the show a chance. We were really surprised how much we liked it. My husband likes it much more than Daredevil. It isn't as much of a comic book show as the other.

Despite lower reviews for season 2, I really liked both seasons. With so much crap on Netflix these days, it's hard for me to understand why they didn't fight harder to keep their Marvel Shows. I've heard Disney will reboot Daredevil for their streaming channel or for Hulu. But what's the point of remaking it with new actors when we love the show already? I doubt Punisher will have any chance for reboot or continuation. Very disappointing!
