Agree. Kingpin character really was done well. I almost think the show was about him, not DD.

That trailer didn't really show much of anything. It was the ceiling of a church, with scenes from (what I assume) season 1 DD painted on the ceiling. They would focus on a painted picture and have dialogue play, then go to the next ceiling picture and have different dialogue play. All the while, there's a shadowy figure much closer to the camera kind of moving around on the floor. Possibly in pain.
It was a teaser trailer if anything, even if it was 1:39 long.

Just read a story on yahoo that punisher will be getting his own netflix series. I'm pretty excited about that.

Originally there were 4 series announced. DD, whatserface, Luke Cage, and Defenders. I have enjoyed the first 2 so far, so bring more on I say.

Iron Fist as 4th series, not the Defenders. Although it was an implicit possibility.
Iron Fist is still not 100% confirmed as a series yet until they are in production.
I still believe the rumors are true that Iron Fist would cost them too much money to produce so they are planning on a Netflix Movie with that character, and Punisher will be the fill in series.

In correct, the original plan was Daredevil, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones and would culminate in a Defenders mini series event.
I can see this. There is so much going on in Iron Fist that it would be damn near impossible to do the show without a massive budget. Personally, I'd almost rather have a Punisher series anyways.

You missed Luke Cage. There was supposed to be 4 series then the Defenders spin off.

I think Iron Fist has probably been replaced with Punisher and I'm good with that.
You are correct then Ukerric, I am in correct.
I always thought Power man, and Iron Fist was planned as a joint series ,but that article says otherwise.
As much as I would like to see an Iron Fist show, I'm still not sure how they are going to do it yet without just making it a movie. He brings in so many special effects.
IMO it would be best for them to give him his own movie, and make it transition to say a 4 episodic movie for defenders.
Still sounds like a shit load of money.

3.3 million is pretty standard, and they aren't shot in Canada like the CW shows. Not to mention they do a shit load of location shooting which destroys any budget.
To put in perspective, each Got episode cost 6-8 million, and something like Big Bang costs 2 million.
You put a healthy dose of CG work into that budget, and you destroy it.

To be fair Big Bang's per episode cost is all about paying the stars. The top three stars stand to make $300 million over the next three years.
As is most Sitcoms. The point being the Marvel Netflix shows have a normal budget for something like this, not an inflated budget like some may assume.
