Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! I hope you’re enjoying your Valentine’s Day. Sorry I didn’t make any new Valentines for this year. For the past 4 weeks almost, I was worried about the fate of Marvel’s The Punisher, fearing that the show will get officially canceled by Netflix just as so many people said it would. If that happens, the last Marvel show to be canceled by Netflix will be Jessica Jones, the show that’s still going at it with 3rd Season production.
Ever since Punisher Season 2 premiered weeks back, I’ve been dreading the day that Netflix will announced that Punisher will be canceled alongside Daredevil, Iron Fist, and Luke Cage. If it happens we won’t be able to see any more of Jon Bernthal’s impressive Punisher performance, the intense fight scenes, flashbacks, Dream Sequences, and above all the #Kastle ship 🙁 ! And that would be a total shame.
But hope is rising thanks to Hulu, another well known streaming service that has Marvel’s The Runaways airing on its network. It has a great relationship with Marvel and Disney and has agreed to pick up either one or all of the 3 Marvel Netflix canceled shows and renew them for new seasons when they are ready. This means Daredevil, along with Luke Cage, perhaps Iron Fist, and if Netflix says goodbye to both shows, Jessica Jones and above all Punisher (*fingers crossed*) will all be revived and picked up by Hulu that will renew the shows for new Seasons.
- Daredevil will be renewed for Season 4
- Iron Fist will be renewed for Season 3 (which is doubtful giving the poor ratings the show has compare to the other shows.)
- Luke Cage be renewed for Season 3
- Jessica Jones will have her show air on Hulu
And above all Punisher will have his show be picked up by Hulu and be renewed for Season 3! That’s more of Jon Bernthals’ Punisher, action and guitar scenes, dead criminal bodies left in Frank’s wake, Frank being 50% human and 50% Punisher, and more of the #Kastle ship (YES!)
If you ask me I prefer AMC to pick up the show and renew it for Season 3. If that happens, viewer ratings will skyrocket more than the Netflix ratings because that show will have more coverage shown on AMC cable network than Netflix. Plus, it will be shown alongside the ever popular horror drama The Walking Dead which had Jon Bernthal appearing as Shane Walsh in Seasons 1 and 2 and the last Rick Grimes episode of that show.
What a thrilling ride it will be if AMC airs Punisher and TWD side by side on their network! People will see Jon Bernthal’s Punisher destroying criminals in one show and after that see the Survivors try to fight off walkers in another show next.
With all of the great possibilities Hulu will have to pick up all of the Marvel Netflix shows and air them alongside The Runaways and the 4 upcoming Marvel shows in which one of them will involve a talking duck (Howard) and a music-themed mutant (Dazzler) Hulu will have rates in ratings, profit, and subscribers sore much higher than all other streaming channels in no time.
Seriously, TBH with you I don’t care about all the other Marvel shows out there. All I care about is Punisher. And I don’t want it canceled at all. Can Netflix please keep Punisher for the sake of all its fans worldwide?! If not, can AMC, FXX, HBO, or especially Hulu, please pick up the show and renew it for Season 3 so we can see more Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, #Kastle, guitar scenes, flashbacks, dream sequences, and more brutal fight scenes, please?
Now here’s a much better version of Jon Bernthal as The Punisher. His skull emblem is shown clearly on this Read more
