Top 5 Episodes In ‘Daredevil’ Season 2

2. EP9: “Seven Minutes in Heaven”

Three words: Punisher prison riot. The show delivers. Plus, Fisk returns and finally gets to be Kingpin! I loved how it was a bottle episode that told a complete story about Fisk’s takeover of the prison and adoption of his nickname. D’Onofrio appeared in three episodes this season and they are all on this list. He’ll always primarily be Det. Robert Goren from Law & Order: Criminal Intent to me (once again, 90s kid) but his Wilson Fisk threatens to usurp that role in my mind. In D’Onofrio’s hands, Fisk is a tragic monster, a rattlesnake. You almost can’t blame him when he bites, like he does when Matt ill-advisedly threatens his fiancee Vanessa’s immigration visa.

I said almost!
