Arrow first 2 seasons are better than Iron Fist and Luke Cage. Even more enjoyable than Jessica Jones. Deathstroke steals the show in 2nd season.

Defenders has lolworthy twist in episode 6. I literally loled when that happened.

I think arrow/flash are more on the cheesy/campy side of things, where as NF superhero shows are more nolan-esque - dark and brooding.
 
Problem with iron fist is, the casting is way off and most of the actors look unconvincing in their roles.  There's little to no character development for danny or colleen wing. The villains are not introduced properly and their motivations might seem shallow.  Also, it doesn't help when they keep recycling the same Madam Gao, nurse Claire in every damn show. 
 
So - why watch it ? Well, if you watch it as just another action-adventure TV show, which is what I did, I think one might find it to be quite a decent show.  There's still colleen wing who's good (I think she will soon spillover to other NF shows like defenders and luke cage) and some of the martial arts fight scenes are choreographed quite well. Especially I liked the ones where danny fights the drunken master at the factory entrance and the fights where he challenges "the hand" in madam gao's lair.  Overall , yeah, like I said before, it might be pretty average, but I found it to be still better than arrow/flash [emoji14]
 
Now, coming to arrow/flash - the first 1-2 seasons were good.  It was cheesy but still entertaining.  But then, it became one big romantic/family/soap opera style with the lead actors becoming some kind of emotional train-wrecks with too many romantic/family subplots, which is when I stopped watching !


Lol reason why I stopped watching those shows. Too much romantic and family drama with awful acting.Also cringeworthy twists.

About ASOUE, it's a decent dark comedy and the setting feels like a typical Tim Burton movie.

Defenders was okay.. if only the fight sequences were choreographed better.. that alexandra fight with black sky was hillarious.. i was like they were doing a dance routine and counting 1 to 4 lol..

BLACK MIRROR IS TH3 SH1T .... :punk:

 

btw, midway through defenders, and I find it totally awesome .... especially the fight scenes ! Also, I haven't really read these comics and I'm finding the whole lore behind the hand and kunlun very intriguing.  So far, it has been really good, much beyond my expectations (maybe you guys lowered my expectations with all the negativity lol :P)

If you think those crappy low light shaky camera fight scenes are good then I can safely assume that your expectations were 0 and not lowered.

 

they were only in the first episode that too for brief moments, the rest of the episodes until now (at-least the ones in the midcircle building and the restaurant)  were quite good, and they were definitely not crappy. Did you just give up after the first episode ?
