idk that scene seemed way more than was necessary </3 I'm obviously not the biggest fan of gorefests anyway but that was just torture porn.

I'm loving the few episodes after it though.

Spoiler:

The hospital invasion and the zombies

I can see why people are falling out of love with the show: S1 was focussed on one very human complex bad guy and he was articulate and charming and interesting and had a history, whereas the whole 'The Hand' stuff is arguably frustrating - no one loves a jump from story to mystery - but I've really liked Elektra/Stick's characters and whilst atm - on episode 10 - the Hand come off as a bit of a generic "oooh weird secretive asians" device, I can't help but admit it's still compelling.

Oh and I was wetting myself a bit at Claire being in the middle of all of that

I liked Season 2 more than 1, S1 lost steam after a few episodes and I think we spent TOO much time with Wilson Fisk that we grew to knew him too well. I think his brief appearance in S2 is far more imposing that anything he got to do in S1.

The Hand are a bit boring, yeah I'll admit that but I didn't really care given that I found the main cast really compelling. The Hand are a means to an end really.
