I can’t say enough how much I love this show. What started as a bastardized step-sister of the MCU, became its own thing starting in the second season and never looked back. It’s a shame that the viewing audience abandoned the show by the middle of the first season and didn’t hang around long enough to see the incredible wild ride it started in the middle of season 2.
