The Punisher Season 2 Review (A Marvel Fancast) LoS368

The Legends Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Michelle, Consultant Chris and show Producer Director SP discuss the Netflix series Punisher finale Season 2. The Agents debrief you on National Pi Day, question what the point of season 2 was, if the season rated higher or lower than Iron Fist season 2. How the agents watched the season, who the worst therapist ever is, how the plot lines fell short, SP loses count on too many villains, did the show portray a US senator from New York correctly, if John Pilgrim’s sons were better off without him, Karen’s single episode appearance just to blow her shoes off, SP’s list of top 10 The Punisher season 2 fights, and what was off about the season’s tribune to Stan Lee. There’s Michelle’s Mom’s Take too! Stay tuned after the credits for a few minutes of Legends Of S.H.I.E.L.D. bonus audio.

Mando is enjoyable and Grogu is super cute, but I don’t find it very exciting for the most part. Dr. Gnome @MrParacletes Mar 10 Wandavision is great, but feel like Mandalorian gave me more awesome moments. To be fair, Mando had 2 seasons are lower expectations going in to accomplish it so it's not exactly apples to apples, more like frog eggs to breakfast for dinner. Greta the Cat’s BFF @adanagirl Mar 8 Regarding the Bohner moment, I am an ‘80s child so, to quote Cap, I understood that reference. #WandaVision ‘WandaVision’ Finale Originally Had Larger Roles for Monica Rambeau and That Creepy Rabbit, Director Matt Shakman Reveals https://www.slashfilm.com/wandavision-finale-matt-shakman-cut-storylines/  Andiminga @andiminga Mar 8 Replying to  @StargatePioneer @LegendsofSHIELD and @Chelle_Game Regarding Darcy I remember @TheEricGoldman  speculating because of the pandemic and possible scheduling conflicts, she might not have been on set for later episodes.
