Ah well, I complained last time (when there still was a tv series thread around here) about so much series becoming a soap instead of a "good show". You have soap in crime (Sons of Anarchy), soap in urban fantasy (Supernatural) and soap in the superhero genre (Arrow, Heroes). Now I like all these show and I watched them, but it was more out of habit.
To me a soap is when there is nothing ever resolved. Characters die, but they come back to life. People who get abducted escape, people in coma wake up and characters who dissapear return later in the show. So the more things change, the more things stay the same. Nothing gets resolved, there is nothing final. There is no closure. Plus the characters are always a little shallow. Plastic people populate these shows.
And here and now I stumble across a series that isn't at all like that and this time it's called Daredevil. Watch it. It's gritty and dark, just how I like it.
