    One of the best shows of its' genre

    This show was unjustly cancelled due to drama with Netflix and Disney+. You should watch Daredevil first because The Punisher TV series was a spin-off from Season 2 of Daredevil, Frank Castle stole the show. It's still worth watching.

    Jon Bernthal is perfect as 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!

    Too much death too much blood!

    After the first season, with the release of the second season, I finished the series in a breath. I think this is the best project of the Marvel-Netflix partnership. It is a solid series that has been achieved after the cancellation of many Marvel-Netflix joint projects.

    Action and blood enthusiasts will love this series. There's a lot more blood, death and action than the first season. In the second season has as much violence, blood, action and cruelty as you don't want. At this point, one of the other thanks must go to the kerography team. As you will certainly notice, we are watching episodes filled with fight and conflict scenes. The tempo is not interrupted for a moment, and each episode tries to place at least one action sequence. The Punisher's 2nd season just put Frank Castle in the chaos he deserves, and he succeeded in bringing all the minuses into a negligible situation.

    The season has two main villains and both are as wild as the Punisher. The fiction is also established accordingly, and our two main villains are advancing in parallel. Curtis is one of the good characters of the season. He represented the conscience side of the series very firmly. Amy is another prominent character of the season. She's under Frank's protection because she's close age to Frank's dead daughter. It's fun to see Amy with Frank. Amy is a well-designed character. Her adolescent behavior, her indiscretion, and Frank's reaction to all these things are very natural. With Jon Bernthal's great acting, we have access to the emotions of a father hidden behind a bloody face.

    The music uses were probably the best among the Marvel-Netflix co-productions. Too much music has been used and each one is very successful in passing the emotions of the scenario. Like Daredevil's corridor scenes, it's like we're going to look again at the Punisher's list of songs. And of course it is necessary to mention the last episode. It was one of the finest series finals for me. After many striking and emotional moments, it is impossible not to experience emotional explosion with the last scene. The Punisher role is seated on Jon Bernthal like a shirt.

    We have watched an immaculate season with strong scenes of conflict, good acting, immersive fiction and fluent scenario that never falls behind its first season and even better for some of us than the first season. I hope it will be a long-term series and we will continue to watch Frank Castle. 10/10

    Awesome!

    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!

    Bernthal is the punisher

    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.

    • Trivia
      The Punisher made his first appearance in the pages of "The Amazing Spider-Man #129" in February 1974. He was originally going to be a second-string character due to his penchant for killing, but due to his popularity, he became a more prominent figure in the larger Marvel Universe.

      In every scene in the tent in Afghanistan, the flag is hanging backwards. When hanging, the stars should always be in the top, left corner. However in a war zone this is normal.
