The og show was a serious legal courtroom drama not fitting the tone of she hulk or Hawkeye.
You said it was going to be serious like the Netflix version in which it wasn't.
They introduced a looney Tunes Kingpin and comedic Daredevil beforehand for a reason.
"Disney serious" = something like Moon Knight which is nothing like the Netflix shows.
The tone was going to be lighter as the character's had to be able to crossover into the movies which is what the plan was when they were originally making this show.
Now they've separated their tv show characters and movie characters again which means they can now bring Daredevil more in line with the Netflix version.
