I manage about 30 seconds then have to pause, look away from the screen, take a deep breath, down a shot of whisky, despair over my life choices and try again. Each episode is taking about 2 hours.


All of this because I want to watch the Defenders with the appropriate background knowledge. There must be an easier way.

And in the end, Defenders was 50% exposition so you didn't really have to watch any of the other shows to know what was going on.

Seriously, how many times did they explain what K'un Lun was in Defenders?

Just watch it whilst playing a game, you will get the gist of the story and be fine for Defenders.

He's giving the senior board members a pep talk because they're charging too much money for a drug for poor people in Africa

Am I supposed to be inspired by this guy

I'm very confused

I did this two weeks ago, and while having this backstory does make it easier to follow Danny and Colleen through their return to NY, and while I am generally enjoying the Defenders, I can't 100% say that thirteen hours of Iron Fist is worth it.

Read a plot synopsis and move on. Don't deny yourself the glory of Sigourney Weaver for another moment.

Oh you poor creature, you've only barely got through 25%. It's going to get so much more frustrating. Save yourself.

The second half is far stronger, but good lord I will never watch the first half ever again for any reason.
