(If you haven't seen the DareDevil series,, go watch it first before you watch The Punisher.

Trust me,, it's incredible)

Frank Castle is a marine. He is the toughest son of a buck that any fellow marine ever fought with. He is an expert sharpshooter, at hand to hand, and most other forms of combat. Frank Castle, will just not die.

Frank had a wife, a daughter, and a son. They were murdered right in front of him by evil people who wanted to silence Frank for good.

Frank sets out to only punish those who took everything from him. Eventually, he sets out to punish evil everywhere he can find it.

Along the way Frank makes new friends,, and new enemies.

WoW!! Just,, WoW!!! Netflix hit the ball out of the park with this one (Imo,, this one is even better then DD,, and that's saying A LOT!). I never cease to be impressed with just how good of an actor Jon Bernthal is. He brought so much to this character (first in DD, then here). Other actors have done well as Frank Castle,, but Bernthal epitomized what the character should've been on screen! Such raw emotion and expression! I swear he reminds me of Robert DeNiro (and no, not just bc he played his son in a movie. I thought this before that role). A smaller guy. Not overly threatening or anything,, but the last guy you'd want to mess with. Completely ruthless when they want to be. Such good actors, both of them.

The supporting cast was excellent as well. We even get some of the Daredevil cast joining in this show!!

Overall, I'd give this show an 8.5 rating (at least the 1st season. Although the 2nd season is still REALLY good).

If you've already seen the Daredevil series, you have to see this one too!

(Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron fist?!? Don't bother with those)
