It is incredibly important that you disregard reviews giving 4 stars or more to this series. The quality of writing and acting is far from even a 3 star rating. The series is full of awkward plot holes, universe inconsistencies, characters introduced simply to progress the plot or act as motivators for other characters and bland, uninspired dialogue between said characters. Considering these failings I hardly blame the actors for their sometimes blank performances or directors for terrible action sequences. Given these factors, 1-2 stars would be appropriate however there is an element of fun which somewhat negates the clear and pervasive flaws. If you are not a fan of the comics, see the ratings and expect an exceptional television series, you will be disappointed. Daredevil is the exceptional hero TV series. If you buy it for a diversion or a bit of fun you will be more likely to be satiated.

This show is amazing. The only reason I'm rating so low is because the rate to which episodes are available are a joke! Seriously. I have 4 or 5 different tv shows I have purchased on google and they haven't updated in like a month. Note this is how you lose your customers and subscribers... FED UP

Show is great but Google is way behind on the episodes. They also randomly skip episodes. Better to get it from iTunes or Microsoft's video service. Both have up-to-date episodes as soon as they're aired.
