Finished it tonight. Really well-acted, enjoyed the characters. The pacing took a dip in the middle, but it picked itself up in the last few episodes.
Spoilery thoughts:
Oh, what was the music piece you found weird? Was it
Spoilery thoughts:
They tried their damnedest to make Diamondback a compelling character, but I missed Cottonmouth for the second half of the show. I felt the tension between him and Luke was more genuine because Cottonmouth acted like a person, while Diamondback felt more like a 2-dimensional crazy character.
That said, the fight between Luke and Diamondback was one of the better brawls in the MCU. Goofy outfit aside, that they were able to draw out the fight, make it feel like a big deal, get other characters involved without having them fighting too, get the setting into it, and so on, really made it one of the better fights between the movies and shows.
It was a bit of a bummer that the show ended on a down note, but at least we'll get Daredevil and Luke connected. I'm also not crazy about Luke with Claire; I was hoping he'd end up with Jessica like in the comics. We'll have to see. It could still happen. Hopefully Claire doesn't start falling for Danny in Iron Fist.

Consider the times of today and the location.Only gripe I have is that in every story there are a bunch of crooked cops. Am I just that naive to think that this trope is way overused? It's one of the things I liked about Stranger Things. The cops were intelligent and careful. That was kinda rare in shows.

the three guys going "stop and look and you have found love" where the lead singer kept breaking the notes, and they had three guys on instruments behind them? Because my wife and I figured Diamondback saying he liked that set sealed the deal for him being a villain
